Valuation

What is your most
valuable asset worth?

Your retirement. Your legacy. Your future.
Value is more than a number.

Most owners have 70-80% of their net worth trapped in the value of their business, yet have never had it valued by a professional.

At Allan Taylor & Co. we believe valuation is the logical starting point for discussing the sale of your business. It can also be the basis for strategic planning that will build value in your business prior to selling.

Our valuations are based on real-world experience selling businesses since 2006. We know what buyers look for in a business, what they value, and how they formulate offers.

Whether you’re ready to sell today — or ready to start planning for a future sale — it all starts with understanding how buyers will value your business.

I have prepared/seen/reviewed hundreds of business valuation reports in my career… including several of Barbara’s valuation reports. In many ways, they are the most useful reports I have seen. And if you are a business owner looking to sell your company, Barbara’s reports will leave you confident in the conclusion she reaches.
