Negotiating to buy or sell a business? Come discuss acquisitions strategies.
Businesses have many moving parts: employees, vendor relationships, facility leases, along with all of the dynamics of managing revenues and operating expenses. Learn how all of these affect the value of a business, whether you are a prospective buyer or seller. We'll discuss common Business Valuation techniques, the process of buying/selling a business, how to assemble an advisory team to assist each of these steps, and financial tools to assist parties in the transaction and ongoing operations. Every business is unique - so too are the value considerations and steps in managing a sale. This will be a very informative and conversational seminar.
