Exit Ready
Are you an entrepreneur and planning to sell your company within five years? Then preparing yourself and your company properly is important. Exit Ready, a part of Marktlink, supports you in making yourself and your company ready for sale. Our mission is clear: to help you significantly increase your company's value and prepare you for the sale process that follows.
Why Exit Ready?
It goes without saying that, as an entrepreneur, you want to maximise the value of your company. Our experience shows that good preparation and gaining insight into the sale process can increase your enterprise value by approximately 10 to 30%. With more than 1,000 successful SME transactions, Exit Ready knows how to achieve a higher value for your company.
We always view things from the perspective of the potential buyers. We understand how they evaluate companies, what criteria are important to them, and how you can positively influence and optimize these criteria in your business operations. But we also understand that selling a business is more than just financial. We want to fully understand what you need, prepare you mentally for the process, and provide you with personal support, so that you can take this important step with confidence.
What does the Exit Ready process entail?
Through the Exit Ready process, you prepare yourself and your company for sale, from start to finish. We start the process with an extensive intake, in which we brainstorm and give you strategic advice on developing a master plan for a possible pre-exit investment or sale strategy; it’s important to start with the end goal in mind. Next, we create a detailed analysis of your company, in which we look into the current and future business model, financial performance, enterprise value and optimisations that can increase the company’s marketability and value.
Once the business analysis is clear, we draw up a well-founded and realistic growth plan in which the points of improvement and the accompanying effects on the marketability and enterprise value are made concrete. If desired, we can support you with implementing the optimisations that can increase value. After the Exit Ready process, your company is completely ready for sale. The entire process typically takes one to two years.
Who is Exit Ready?
The Exit Ready core team consists of entrepreneurs who have successfully sold their own companies. We understand entrepreneurs like no other and know what to consider when selling your company. We not only help you with practical matters, like increasing your enterprise value, but also support you in shifting your mindset and how to communicate the sale to your personnel. We are your right-hand man during the entire process, your trusted advisor.
Our face-to-face masterclasses offer you the opportunity to acquaint yourself with preparing your company for sale. During these sessions, experts share their experience with selling, specialists discuss current market trends and sale scenarios and offer practical insights into making your company ready for sale. Of course, there's also an opportunity to meet fellow entrepreneurs afterwards who are also considering selling their businesses.
