Does this sound like you?

You anticipate selling your business and you want to be ready when the time is right or an unexpected opportunity comes along. You want to do the right things between now and then to make your business more valuable, easier to sell and easier to transition to a new owner. You need someone who can look at the business as a whole (Management, People, Systems, Processes and Numbers) and help you get there.

You don't anticipate selling your business. What you want to do is to build it up so that it can continue to operate profitably without taking up all of your time. You want to stay involved, but at a high level so that you can pursue other interests.

Your business is doing well, however you are experiencing pain because...:
1. You are involved in everything, you are spread too thin and you are getting further and further behind.
2. Clients are calling you because your growing staff, though well meaning, are not doing the job the way customers have come to expect working with you.
3. Chaos reigns - and all you seem to do is put out fires.
4. Conflict between sales and delivery/operations seems to be escalating and morale in both groups is heading the wrong way.
5. You can't get the right information accurately, consistently or fast enough to make timely decisions.
6. You aren't having any fun anymore and there is no one you can really talk to who understands or can help you.
7. You are fed up and ready to fire everyone and start over.
8. Other
9. All of the above

You are considering buying a business. You want to make sure that you take into account all of the factors that can make or break the long-term success of the acquisition. You also want to develop a transition plan that makes sense. You know that it's not just a matter of performing due diligence on the numbers and coming up with a price. Again, you need someone on your team who can look at both businesses as a whole (Management, People, Systems, Processes and Numbers) and help you succeed in the process.

If any of these sound like you, then contact Fred.
