A Business That Can Be Sold Is Worth Keeping

I have a question for you: When you think about selling your business in the next 3 to 5 years – are you totally confident that it’s worth what you think it is?

Or have you ever gotten an offer that was so low you felt insulted?

Seriously, most small business owners I talk to have some doubts about whether their baby – their business – is really ready for sale and if it can fetch them enough money to fund the next phase of their life.

And who can blame them? It’s their life’s work!

Well, guess what?

There’s something you can do about it. There’s a way to dramatically increase your business’s value before you sell it – and it’s not just by making more profit.

It’s by increasing your “Exit Multiple.”

That’s right; it’s all about making your business more attractive so that when someone looks at buying it, they’re willing to pay more than the numbers say they should pay.

The First Problem

Let me paint you a picture…

There are millions of operating businesses out there – almost 6,000,000 in the U.S. alone – and 94% of them are small, doing less than $5 million in sales each year.

And get this…

Half of them are expected to be put up for sales in the next 5 years. That means there’s gonna be a flood of businesses hitting the market soon. It’s going to be like Black Friday for buyers – they’ll have their pick!

Now, with so many options for buyers, if your business doesn’t stand out from the crowd – if it’s not one of those top-tier businesses that are well-run with a strong brand, a great team, solid intellectual property, and all that good stuff – then guess what?..

You might not get the price you’re hoping for. You’ll have a low Exit Multiple. In fact… you might get low-balled again!

But here’s some good news: You don’t have to accept that fate. You can take steps right now to make your business more valuable – not just by making more money but by making it more appealing overall.

The Big Idea

So what’s this “Multiple” thing I’m talking about?

Okay… in simple terms, when someone wants to buy your business, they look at your profit – specifically your EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) – and then multiply that by a number called the Multiple to decide how much they’re willing to pay for your company.

The “Exit Multiple” is a number they use to express your business’ intangible value.

For example, if your EBITDA is $1 million and your Multiple is 4, then your business could be worth $4 million.

Now, most people focus on increasing their profit, which makes sense because that directly affects one part of the equation.

But here’s what many don’t realize: You can also increase the Exit Multiple by improving certain intangibles in your business – things like how strong your brand is, how loyal your customers are, how good your management team is, how strong your intellectual property is, and so on…

So, even if your profit stays about the same or grows a little, if you can make your Multiple go from say 3x to 5x or higher, that can really boost your sale price Big Time!

Think about this…

If you move EBITDA by 20% then your $4,00,000 sale becomes a $4,800,000 Sale.

If you move your Multiple 20% you get the same result.

Now, grow sales, move EBITDA 40%, increase your multiple from 4X to 6X and your $4,000,000 low-ball offer just became an $8,400,000 Sale!

If taking 3 years and changing some things about how your business operates would double your sales price, would you do it? 

Would you do the things you need to do to add real value to your business?

The Second Problem

Most Business Owners totally skip the Exit Multiple part…

And if they do focus on it, they start about 6 months before the sale. That’s not enough time to create real value and real Multiple expansion in your business. And the Bankers and Private Equity firms who are backing the purchases of all these businesses can tell…

They’re hoping you won’t work on the Exit Multiple before they buy it. You’ve probably heard that Private Equity firms buy businesses and flip them 4 or 5 years later and make big money. Why would you leave that money on the table for them to make?

Our Solution

That’s where my company, The Numbers Advisors, comes in. Exit Multiples in the U.S. range from 4X to 11X.

We’re all about helping small business owners like yourself maximize their business value before they decide to sell it off. Our approach is comprehensive and devoted to maximizing the multiple:

1. Assessment: First, we’ll sit down and look at where you’re at right now – personally, financially, and with your business. This helps us understand your current situation and what you’re aiming for.
2. Scorecard Development: Next, we’ll create something called a scorecard. This scorecard will measure both hard numbers like profit margins and softer things like how strong your brand is. This way, we can keep track of how things are improving over time.
3. Plan Creation: Based on what we find from our assessment and scorecard, we’ll put together a detailed plan with specific steps and milestones. This plan will outline exactly what needs to be done and when, so we’re always moving towards increasing your business value.
4. Deliverables and Accountability: We’ll set clear goals for each part of the plan and make sure everyone involved knows what they’re supposed to do and when they’re supposed to do it. This keeps everything on track and makes sure we’re getting results without wasting time or money.
5. Communication Facilitation: We’ll help keep everyone on the same page – from you as the owner down to your team members – ensuring that everyone knows what’s going on and is working towards the same goals.

Why Trust Us?

Now, you might be thinking, “Why should I trust this guy with my precious business?”

Fair question! Let me tell you a bit about myself. 

My name is Philip Williams, and I’ve been in this consulting game for almost a decade now and I’ve been in the C-Suite for two decades. I’ve worked with all sorts of small businesses across different industries, helping them improve how they operate and increase their value when it’s time to sell.

Let me pull back the curtain for a second and tell you why I’m the guy you want in your corner when it’s time to cash out of your business…

Picture this: Not too long ago, I dove headfirst into an industry where I had zero experience and no education. None. Zilch. But I didn’t let that stop me—I grew that business by 50% every single year for five straight years.

That’s not a typo; we’re talking compounding growth that turned heads and changed my life. How’d I do it? By figuring out what actually matters and doubling down on it. That’s a lesson I’ll never forget.

And trust me, people noticed. My company scored a three-peat on the Inc 5000 list – that’s five years of running as one of the fastest-growing privately held businesses out there. We funded the growth from cash flow – No Debt; No external investors.

And…

Wait for it…

We doubled the size of everyone’s paychecks along the way!

Then came the big leagues: I got simultaneous offers from two publicly traded giants—one suitor worth $8 billion, the other a staggering $26 billion. That’s billion with a “B!” 

Those offers weren’t just a pat on the back; they showed me what’s possible when you build something buyers can’t resist.

I didn’t stop there. I’ve written a book spilling the beans on what I’ve learned, spoken on stages to share my story, and been grilled on nearly 20 podcasts. Why? Because I’m obsessed with helping business owners like you dodge the traps I stumbled into and come out on top.

Now, here’s the heavy hitter…

I’ve run an $87 million business, advising nearly 150 clients along the way. Yeah, you read that right—eighty-seven million dollars. That’s not just a number; it’s a testament to the kind of value I’ve helped create.

Add to that my credentials as a Certified Exit Planning Advisor, and you’ve got someone who’s not just talking theory—I’ve got the scars and the wins (and the war stories) to prove it.

But here’s the cold, hard truth I’ve learned through all this: You can work as hard as you want for as long as you want, but if you’re not working on the right things at the right time, it won’t add a penny to your business’s valuation. 

And when you go to sell? No one’s gonna pay you what you think your business is worth.

Period.

I’ve seen it happen too many times—good people, nice little companies, and disappointing offers.

That’s why I do what I do.

The Exit Multiple isn’t just about pumping up your profits (though we’ll crush that too). It’s about multiplying your business’s value—2X, 3X, even 5X—by nailing the stuff buyers drool over: the brand, the systems, the intangibles.

I’ve been there, done that, and now I’m here to make sure you walk away from your sale with a check that matches the blood, sweat, and tears you’ve poured in.
