Preparing your business for sale or funding requires prior communication about your decision to employees, clients, vendors, service providers, and in some cases government regulators; compliance for financial reporting, legal, company secretarial, and taxation matters; engaging professionals/consultants for business sale or funding; estimating the valuation of the business; possible continuation of the promoter in the running of the business; timeline of exit; plan of capital utilization; presenting the business' competitive position in the industry; preparing collateral documents such as valuation report, investor memorandum, and teaser; and continuous communication with acquirers or investors.
To close any transaction deal smoothly, the business promoter needs to be well prepared with financial reports; on-boarded employees, clients, and suppliers for transition of business ownership; quick response to investors or acquirers' questions; maintain reasonable expectations about business valuations; accepting a transition period that is agreeable to the investor or the acquirer; creating a second-line of management for day-to-day business operations; resolve legal and compliance issues before funding; and focus on the larger objective of the deal.
