In this session, Ed Mendlowitz will cover the step-by-step process to take when a client is selling their business. Selling a business is a one-time transaction and a unique opportunity for clients, and it needs to be done right. Understanding the whole process is paramount to understanding how it is done. Many of the steps are common in every deal, but since every deal is different, the advisor needs to be prepared to advise their client properly, and many of those situations will be highlighted. Selling a business is an adversarial process but can be done without contention and consternation when the parties understand the process and what to expect. These steps comprise a thorough 48 point checklist that will be a valuable resource to better advise your clients. This course will be a fast-paced program that is not for the timid.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify when the client is serious and worth proceeding with
- Determine how to become the leader of the process and keep it on track
- Recall how to anticipate problems and advise your client about them before they become evident
- Determine how to prepare for the last steps that will occur months after the closing
