Ever wondered how the value of a privately held company is determined?
Laurie Barkman delved into the crucial insight that buyers buy on their time, not yours. This means that in the private markets, the value of a business is ultimately determined by the buyers. As sellers, our role is to find best fit buyers, tell a compelling story, and focus on solving pain points to increase the fit and ultimately the valuation of our business.
Understanding this critical point is essential for business owners looking to prepare for their exit. It emphasises the importance of positioning the business in a way that resonates with potential buyers and addresses their needs. By doing so, we can significantly impact the value and desirability of our business in the eyes of the buyers.
