How To Prepare Your Company For Sale (and Help Maximize Your Sale Price)

You always wanted to start your own company. One day you decided to make it happen. Years (and many personal sacrifices) later you have transformed your original idea into a successful business.

A significant part of your net worth is now tied to the business, and, to extract that value, you conclude that the company must eventually be sold.

1. Preparing to sell your company before you start it
