Have It Your Way: How BVA Can Help "You Rule" Your Business Exit Strategy

Jul 26, 2024 3:56:49 PM Advisory Exit Planning Business Valuation

Have it Your Way

Burger King has familiarized us all with the slogan, "Have it Your Way."

I can't help but think of business transition planning when I hear that commercial. "Have it Your Way" is an incredibly powerful concept when it comes to the future of your business.

Over the years as business advisors, we've too often seen clients who have failed to plan. Their exit strategy is simply, "I'll sell it when I am ready to retire."

And they do.

But they often fail to realize the full value of the business, which means they ultimately settle for less, and have no clue what to do when the thing that consumed nearly all their waking time no longer is there for them.

Blue Value Advisors was born because as advisors, it was painful for us to see clients fail to achieve the maximum value for a business that they put their heart, soul, and financial resources in. Our goal is to ensure that does not happen to you.

We have found many owners struggle to identify what is important to them. Failing to understand the things most important to them impedes upon their ability to consider a viable exit plan. 

We work with clients to understand their business and personal goals. We assess the business and do a baseline valuation so we can meet you where you are. Our goal is to walk alongside you, challenge you, and help you create a prioritized plan that achieves the things most important to you, because no two exit plans look the same. 

You may recall the Burger King jingle ends with the proclamation "You Rule!" Transition planning, when done well, puts you in control of the process from beginning to end. 

You call the shots.

You decide when and how you exit and how the value is monetized.

You do indeed get to live out the "Burger King" motto to "Have it Your Way," where "You Rule" the process. It doesn't get much better than that!
