15 Reasons Why Your Business Won't Sell To Private Equity
Why is it that some businesses that are otherwise seen as valuable still aren't attracting sale bids from private equity?
In this episode, Nick breaks down fifteen reasons why you might be being overlooked, and what you can do to turn your company into something far more attractive in order to make that life-changing exit.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
You need to have not just a high cash flow and profitable business, but also a sustainable growth story that you can tell to the world.
If your business is one that attracts customers who visit but only buy once, then it becomes an inefficient business model. The desired situation would be to sell multiple times to the same customer.
When you have a product that's unique, people will seek you out in order to gain your solution. By this token, you are immediately standing both for something and against something, which is attractive.
Numbers aren't everything - culture matters more than you know. A company with massive cultural issues will be an instant turnoff for anyone looking to invest, as it means a wholesale restructuring and re-education initiative is required.
