Whether you are selling your business or looking to make a purchase, preparation is vital. This is the moment to look at yourselves in the mirror. You need to look like an attractive partner. You need to show commitment to the project.

All corporate transactions progress more smoothly if the right preparatory steps have been taken. Value is created. Problems are easier to solve. Management time is spent efficiently.

Nearly every corporate journey evolution runs into problems somewhere along the way. The question is how you meet these challenges. And who is by your side to guide you. The more you prepare, the more likely you will achieve your goal.

A conscientious M&A advisor will work with you right from the beginning. Even before the details of the transaction are thought through. A specialist will know how to present your business in the best possible light.

Preparing the business should be seen as the most important step in the entire process!

Whilst every business is different, here are some questions you should consider:

• Can I describe what my business does clearly?
• Does my business have a credible business plan for future growth?
• What investment do I need to achieve my plans?
• Do I have the right team? Are my people good ambassadors for the company?
• What do my production facilities look like to an outsider?
• Does my business look cared for? Was the floor swept clean?
• Do I have the right regulatory documentation in place?
• Do I have the right advisors on my side
