How to Make Your Service-Based Company More Valuable

Do you think of ways to add value to your company? Have you ever thought of selling your service-based business? Or are you thinking of selling your service-based business?

And most importantly, should you be thinking about selling it?

If your answer is yes or no to any of the above questions, you’d be surprised that your service-based business may not worth as much as you think.

On this episode of the Process Breakdown Podcast with Dr. Jeremy Weisz, he features John Warrillow, founder of The Value Builder System™, a system that helps you determine if your business is valuable enough to be sold.

Mr. Warrillow shares stories of how service-inclined business owners discovered the emptiness of their company’s worth when they were selling it, and he then shares practical tips and insights on how to gauge the value of your business and how to improve it.
