Should I grow or sell my business with Lance Meikle

We talk to Allan Bennett, a current client of Grow Or Sell My Business, who decided to sell his last business on his own. It’s a cautionary tale of handshake deals and making ‘nice’ decisions, and ultimately realising that just because you run a business, doesn’t mean you know how to sell one. We ask Alan how he’d do it differently, if he had his time again.

In this ep with special guest Nick Walker of Walker Hill Chartered Accountants, we dig into who needs to be at the table and how to choose those people wisely—whether you’re selling your business or wishing to grow it. Who should be involved? What is the role of the accountant, and what type of accountant is right for the job? What other professionals should you bring into the discussion, and should you really go for that aggressive lawyer or business broker? How long might the sales process take —and how can you make it more efficient and cost-effective?
