Top Tool to negotiate the fees for the sale of your business with confidence

For all you business owners who are thinking about selling part or all of their business, you need to download this new report by Firmex and Divestopedia.
I highly recommend reading it to get a true assessment of fees for your sale of business.
The report also highlights the latest views from the corporate finance experts who will sell your business far better than you can do. Yes, I know you are the smartest person in the room, but you will get more money for your business when the sale is negotiated by the people who have done negotiations for decades.

Also, if you scroll down, you will see a link to sign up for a webinar with John Carvalho, the head of Divstopedia, and with Adam Mallon, BDO, who I enjoy hearing because he tells the stories from the family business kitchen table with deep empathy for the family, but also the sternness to make the right decisions.

For business owners, this report offers an invaluable tool in negotiating fees and terms for investment banking engagements. Of course, in addition to fees, due diligence must be performed on the quality and experience of the M&A advisor. The level of the success fee doesn’t matter much if an M&A transaction is not successfully completed or business owners don’t feel like they got the best outcome.

Rick Spence, National Post, review

"A lot of business people still have trouble with the concept of strategic planning. They wonder who should do it, and what it's for. I just encountered a great explanation of strategy. It comes from a book, The Power of Strategy by Jacoline Loewen.

"I think that strategy is very similar to the search for the Holy Grail. Renowned knights traveled great distances and overcame severe hardship in the struggle to find this sacred relic, the chalice used by Jesus at the Last Supper. Finally, Sir Galahad was the one who discovered that the Holy Grail is, in fact, within us. There is no right or wrong answer -- it is the journey that provides the learning, not the Holy Grail itself.

In strategy, it is the process of people going through the questioning and thinking that ingrains the strategy into their everyday actions, not the plan itself."
