When an owner sells their business, they always need to be aware of what taxes they will be required to pay as a result of the sale and every owner we’ve ever dealt with has wanted to minimize taxes however possible.

Another issue to be aware of is any potential risk in receiving future payments in a transaction that involves an installment sale.

Today we’re going to discuss what could be a possible solution if you are considering a sale and have either one of those concerns.

The Pros and Cons of Structured Installment Sales is our topic for today.

When we bring on a new client, one of the first actions is estimating the value of the business. What is the current fair market value of the business?

We’ve talked many times about how important that number is in planning your eventual exit.

In that process we consistently find that companies realizing consistency in strong financial performance, are those that have invested smartly in attracting the right people, but then also in developing their people.

They’ve been intentional in setting a tone of continual learning and improvement as a key part of their culture, their employees end up being more motivated and empowered which results in higher levels of productivity, efficiency and profits.

Employee development is key to increasing the value and sell-ability of your business and for success in your eventual exit. And so that’s the topic for today’s conversation, “How Can Employee Development Result in a Sellable Business and Successful Exit?”

If you’re a business owner and have one or more business partners. you more than likely have at least heard of buy-sell agreements. And hopefully you have one that is well-written, current and regularly reviewed. You may also have one if you’re in process of selling your business to insiders or children. A buy-sell agreement provides direction to owners and other stakeholders when the transition of an ownership interest in a business is in question. In the case of a multiple-owner business, a buy-sell agreement can be the most important business planning document they have. An important aspect of an effective buy-sell agreement is how the strategies for the unexpected events of death or disability of owners will be funded. And most often life and disability insurance is used for the funding method when the parties of the agreement are insurable. When insurance is used there are some key planning issues that need to be planned for. And today we want to alert you in a general way to the planning issues as well as a solution. that may or may not be right for your situation. But certainly a solution that should be considered by you and your advisor team.

How much money will you need when you exit?

The answer to this third question very much impacts your answers to the other questions regarding departure date and who you end up selling to…

We believe that the following are critical elements in creating a successful exit plan…

- a preliminary business valuation
- a forecast of future business cash flow
- an experienced advisor team
- your targeted departure date
- your targeted successor
- And a preliminary financial needs analysis

And it’s this last element…the preliminary financial needs analysis…the analysis that will answer the question “What’s Your Number?” that we want to discuss today…

What’s Your Number???

We want to help you build your business value, but also protect the value of your business, and one way to do that is through careful tax planning…

Tax planning as you’re growing and building the business, but also planning that will minimize taxes when you eventually sell or transfer your business.

Too often at sale an owner is sadly surprised with how much of their sale proceeds will go to both federal and state income taxes.

And so that’s today’s topic: Minimizing Taxes at Sale with a Section 664 Business Owners Trust Our expert guest today is Roger Silk, Phd, who is the Founder and CEO of Sterling Foundation Management

Building a business that is transferable or sellable really begins when an owner launches a business with their eventual goals for exit --- do they indeed want to get value out of the business at some point in the future with a sale…or do they have vision for eventually transferring the business to children or key employees.
If they simply want a lifestyle business while building their desired financial wealth outside of the business…then building for an eventual sale or transfer isn’t necessary…
However, we find that most owners want to…and often need to…get some value out of the business eventually…and frequently consider the business to be central to their retirement plan…
Also…an owner who builds a transferable business has many more options for their eventual exit than they would with a lifestyle business…
So, we can work with owners for years in identifying what aspects of their business….if focused on and strengthened…will increase the value and sellability of the business…
We want to help clients get the business to a place where it’s ready to be sold or transferred for the value they need or want…
And in doing that they find it helpful to have someone outside of the business…like us…come in and look under the hood and identify blind spots that the owner might have pertaining to growth and value acceleration…
And that’s what we want to discuss in this episode…. Common Blind Spots in Building Business Value
