You do not need to have everything figured out. We meet owners exactly where they are and help them prepare for the strongest possible exit.

Why This Call Matters

Most owners lose value long before they speak with a buyer. A short conversation helps us understand where you are, what your goals are, and what steps will protect your business long before the sale.

This call is not a commitment to sell. It is confidential and built to give you clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you are just exploring your options or are ready to begin the process, this FAQ was developed to give you straightforward and practical answers.

How much is my business worth?

The value of any business is based upon its free cash flow and the multiple for the industry it operates in. There are, however, other contributing factors that can add to or detract from the cash flow valuation such as growth or contraction, revenue concentration, or owner dependency. We also look at comparisons or comps of other similar businesses that have sold. Please schedule an appointment and we’d be happy to discuss the value of your business.

In general, it takes nine months to a year to sell a business, but it could take longer, or it could go much faster. Much of the time involved can be attributed to the buyer’s due diligence and financing. Providing the information requested by a buyer in a timely manner speeds up the process. Be prepared.

We like to meet our clients anywhere from one year to five years before their intended exit so we can help them prepare the business for sale. We have written extensively on this matter, and you can get a free copy by going here.

Ken Abbott

I have been fortunate to work in several different business genres. I have owned my own companies in the areas of development, finance, Real Estate, consulting, and advertising. I have written business plans, licensed, and consulted for countless companies.

In my past, I have increased market share of a finance company by 300%, developed successful large mixed-use projects, underwritten loans and financials, re-organized company structures, introduced company changing processes, and led companies on the brink of failure to success. I have been an enthusiastic change agent, assisted in software development, and have learned from the many challenges thrown my way.

Owning a business is not easy and the choices can be tough to navigate. Speaking as someone who has run my own business and experienced the highs and lows that come with it, I have a deep understanding of what it takes and how hard some decisions can be.

My experience has allowed me to understand the needs and wants of individuals and their life goals. It reinforces in me that really seeing a person’s goals, and desires, is not only rewarding, but good business. I am here to help.

My experience includes operating my own companies, investment strategy, business turn-around, Real Estate, development, finance, production, project mgt., compliance, and consulting. Having a license since 1996, I enjoy combining Transworld’s extensive network with my experience to help clients. I love to meet people, learn their unique stories, and help them achieve their goals.
