finish unfinished business?

sell? or fix?

Let’s face it… EXIT is 100% inevitable.

The determining factor on how successful this will be is whether it is PLANNED or UNPLANNED?

Firstly… How Saleable is Your Business?

By reviewing your business through my “Buyers Goggles”, the plan is to see what you’ve got and orchestrate a way to get you OUT as soon and as seamlessly and as lucratively as possible.
Mapping and Executing on this is what I do best!

Building and SELLing 3 of my own businesses, the last one being a 7-figure business, has me included as one of the 3%’ers (read my BIO).

I now spend my time between looking under the hood of 200+ businesses per year, of all shapes and sizes, and all industries to ascertain Saleability and indicative sale price range (Worth), exploring how this marries with your timelines as the Seller to get your business SOLD.

Secondly, embrace being deliberately entrepreneurial by treating your Business as an Asset determines its Worth, and what this means in terms of what needs to be done (in market-oriented and grounded terms) when you ready to move it on… best we have a chat… time for a cuppa?

Who am I?

Business Value Analyst, Broker and Exit Facilitator | LINCHPIN | Small Business Expert | Presenter | Speaker | Educator

In July 2011, during the GFC, Denise sold her largest business; it being the third one she has owned, built and sold. In the Consulting, L&D, Change and Organisational Development arena, it was doing 7-figures at time of going to market, so it wasn’t one that could just be packed away without due consideration of its future and those who relied on it.

Since then, she has since (confidentially) sold 25+ and appraised 200+ businesses per year on behalf of other Business Owners. The businesses are all shapes and sizes, ranging from 1 person to many people, from $10,000 to $10mil turnover.

As a result, her opinion and outlook is regularly sought after for presentations, articles, interviews, podcasts, and webinars. She also runs workshops for Business Owners looking to determine what their Business is Worth, and to commence the Exit journey as well as for aspiring want-to-be Business Owners looking to successfully Buy a Business.
