In addition to our expertise in valuations during insolvency scenarios, Proudley Associates also offers comprehensive advisory services for those looking to buy or sell a business. Whether you’re preparing to acquire a new venture or considering an exit strategy, the first crucial step is understanding the true value of the business.
Considering Buying a Business?
Before making a purchase, there are several key questions to ask:
What is the current profitability?
What assets and liabilities come with the business?
Will I be transferring any employees?
Are there any property interests involved?
Why is the business up for sale?
What market share does it hold?
What growth opportunities exist?
How will I finance the purchase?
At Proudley Associates, we can carry out an independent business review, which includes a detailed valuation of both the business and its assets. This process provides the answers to the above and helps you to decide the way forward. From the initial meeting through to offer and negotiation, we can guide you every step of the way.
We can also connect you with trusted professionals—such as solicitors and finance brokers—to ensure a smooth transaction from start to finish.
Thinking About Selling a Business?
Key questions to think about include:
What is my business truly worth?
What value does it hold for me personally?
Who is the ideal target market?
How long am I willing to keep it on the market?
What are the best channels to advertise in?
How do I prepare my team for the transition?
Do I want to be involved in a handover?
Would I consider staying on as a consultant?
We offer tailored business valuations and can advise you on the most effective way to market and sell your business. With extensive industry experience, we support the entire sales process—from valuation and marketing strategy to sales material creation, advertising and offer negotiation.
Our team can also facilitate introductions to solicitors and other professionals to help you close the deal with confidence.
