Our Value Building services are designed to help you understand the current value of your business as seen through the eyes of a buyer and create a detailed plan that will transform your business into a company that is built-to-sell and ensure you receive maximum value when you decide it’s time to exit. Our services also include a free business value calculation accessed via the Value Builder tool.
The Value Builder system is a statistically proven method to improve the value of a business. Data from the acquisition offers of 65,000 businesses has shown that there are eight core drivers that acquirers will pay a premium for. Now you can benchmark your business against these eight core drivers of value to discover what’s contributing to the value of your business as well as understand what needs to be improved in order to increase your valuation.
Based on the quantitive analysis of 65,000 companies, business owners who achieve a Value Builder Score of 80+ receive purchase offers that are 71% higher than the average.
How does your company compare?
The first step of the Value Builder system begins with a simple 15 minute online questionnaire with 30 questions to answer and will generate your personal Value Builder Score. This is offered completely free of charge and also includes a business value calculation. We will review the report with you and highlight strategic areas of opportunity during the assessment step below.
How can you maximize the value of your company?
We will arrange a brief strategy session with you to review the results of your Value Builder Summary and business value calculation and to discuss how you can improve your business.
Whether you are planning to sell soon or just want to know you are building a valuable asset for the future, understanding and improving your Value Builder Score will give you a quantifiable return on your investment of time and effort.
Hands-on workshops to help boost the value of your business.
Working with an Avalon advisor, we will deliver a series of customized strategy sessions tailored to the needs of your business and your schedule. We will create a 12-module program designed to help you understand and improve on the eight core drivers. During each session, we will engage in a set of exercises enabling you to identify the strengths and hidden weaknesses in your company. This will enable you to transform your business into a company that thrives without you meaning it will be more valuable right now as well as when you are ready to sell.
We will combine the results of the Value Builder questionnaire with an analysis of your financial performance, an understanding of your personal and business goals, benchmarking your business against best practices, and we will co-develop an action plan tailored to meet to your objectives.
