Here are 2 of the most popular emails I sent out this year:

30 Things to STOP Doing to Yourself
30 Things to START Doing for Yourself

Over the past year I have spoken in great depth with dozens of business owners. There is a growing fear and frustration with not being able to achieve what they know is possible. The clock is ticking and they recognize change is required. Unless you change what you are doing to or for yourself the results will never improve.

If you want to SELL your business there will be change and we can help. 
If you want to BUY a business there will be change and we can help.

When it comes to change  You Are Not Alone

Selling Your Business - Crossing the Finish Line

7/3/2012

This article is from my friend John Warrillow author of BUILT TO SELL one of the Inc. 2010 best books for business owners.

How do you imagine life after selling your business? Are you travelling? Europe maybe? Patagonia, or somewhere nice and warm?

If you’re like most of the business owners I know, you imagine selling your business, having a going-away party, and riding off into the sunset.

Increasingly, it’s not working out that way.

In a shaky economy, with banks shy to lend, the proportion of cash that business owners get when they sell is sinking with the proportion of the sale price put “at risk” in some sort of “earn-out” or “vendor take back” loan is going up.
Recently, I hosted a workshop in Toronto and invited an M&A professional who spoke about the typical deals she is doing these days. She shared the story of one buyer who is acquiring marketing services businesses for as much as ten times earnings before tax. The fine print? They only pay three times earnings upfront and leave the possibility of the other seven in a five-year earn-out.
