Having consulted with hundreds of private business owners across the country, it is safe to say less than 10% have evaluated the worth of their company for long term planning purposes. Volumes of books explain how to assess a business, but many owners do not have the time or inclination to pour over the necessary documents. Knowledge of business valuation methodology is important, but equally significant is current information on the price and terms of current transactions and existing marketplace conditions.

So what is my company worth?

Extensive research will help an owner gain an appreciation for the current market conditions. However, to get a complete picture of your business worth, it is vital to gain access to databases that provide details on recent business sale transactions. Business sale consultants, without revealing identities, have access to recent transaction data. They also have the experience to filter through your specific company assets, compare them to current market conditions, and establish an accurate assessment of the marketability of your business.
