Good Values : Sound Startup Advice

Let's assume your moral fiber is strong.

With that out of the way, let's get down to values - that is, the price your startup business might fetch if you decide to sell it. Our startup advice: getting the best value for your business is not something that just happens. It's something you make happen. Like good values that come from a proper upbringing, good values in a startup business come from a concerted effort on your part to build up the inherent qualities of your company.

Whether you're in your third year of growth or you're just starting a business, here are some tips and advice we've gathered from people who've successfully sold their companies:

Startup advice: maxing out the value

Some of the key factors that determine business valuation include:

  • Product line - how old are the products? How well are they respected in the marketplace?
  • Market share - how much of the overall market do you control?
  • Quality of your customers - what's their reputation and dependability in terms of future business?
  • Overall state of the industry - is it a growth industry or has it plateaued?
  • Intensity of competition - what is the degree of threat from the competition?
  • Team members - who is crucial to the ongoing value of the business? Who will stay onboard after the sale?
  • State of your financials - how does your balance sheet look? If you have large debts, they will detract from your company's price tag.
