No matter what your reason for selling is, whether it is for your retirement or to start a new business venture, selling your business can be an emotional time.

Strategy

 

We help businesses develop and execute a growth and exit strategy to increase the value of the business while reducing dependence on your involvement to achieve it.

How long does this take?

 

​

Exit and succession plans take time to develop and implement. A strategic plan can take 12-18 months to design and implement to ensure you are getting what you deserve for your exit. Successful exits take time, but PGH Corporate can ensure you get the most value for your business.

 

​

The basic stages, which each add value to your business, include:

​

• Identifying business value 

​​​

• Protecting business value with risk management and asset protection

​

• Maximising value of the business

​​

• Extracting value through a liquidity event or transaction

​

• Manage value post sale and exit to ensure assets are protected and the value in invested where you require it, for example, funding retirement

 

When should I start developing a business exit strategy?

 

It’s never too early! The best strategy is to develop a exit plan as soon as you start or purchase the business. This ensures that when you are ready to exit, you’ll be able to reap the benefits of your hard work and make business decisions throughout your operations to enable a successful exit.
