You can tell me last year’s revenue. Can you tell me what your business is worth?
Most owners can’t, and it isn’t because they aren’t paying attention. Nobody has ever run the number for them. Your accountant knows last year’s profit. That’s a different number from what a buyer would pay.
On October 14, Andrew Lamb is walking through the Value Gap Assessment live. In one hour you’ll see two numbers. The first is what your business is worth today. The second is what it could be worth if you prepared it for sale. Then you’ll see the dollar figure sitting between them, and what closes it.

If you are looking to grow, build and then sell your business, this company is a great resource.
Planning to sell your business someday? The right time to prepare for an exit is well before a buyer comes knocking. This article from Buy and Build Advisors explains five important tests business owners can use to evaluate their company’s readiness, identify potential weaknesses, and improve their position before entering the M&A process. G2web.com is proud to share valuable business resources that help entrepreneurs and business owners make smarter, more informed decisions.
What Business Owners Potentially Lose Between Exit Intent and Readiness
Business owners often know they want to sell or transition their company someday, but waiting until they are ready to actually exit can create a significant gap between intent and readiness. A new article from Buy and Build Advisors takes a closer look at what that gap can potentially cost business owners.
The article, “The Business Exit Strategy Planning Gap: What Owners Lose Between Intent and Readiness,” explains three important areas owners should consider when preparing for a future business transition: the value gap, readiness gap, and timing gap. These areas can affect how prepared a company is when a buyer, lender, partner, or other outside circumstance creates a need to act.
One of the key points discussed is that business exit planning is not simply about deciding when you want to sell. Building transferable value can require time. Issues such as owner dependence, customer concentration, financial reporting, management depth, key-person retention, and business structure may take months or even years to address and document.
Buy and Build Advisors uses an illustrative example to show how completing readiness work alongside business growth can potentially create a substantially different enterprise value than focusing on growth alone. The larger takeaway is that exit planning is a process, not a last-minute checklist.
For business owners considering a sale, succession, acquisition, or other transition in the future, understanding the current value and readiness of the company can provide a clearer picture of what needs to happen next.
G2web is proud to share valuable business resources from our MOGXP clients and partners that can help business owners think strategically about growth, value, and future opportunities.
This valuable business exit strategy article helps business owners understand how business valuation, transferable business value, and strategic planning can improve the long-term success of their company. By beginning exit planning 12 to 24 months before a potential business sale, owners can focus on business growth, increase business value, strengthen business continuity, and prepare for a successful transition. Whether you are considering selling a business, planning a business succession, exploring a business acquisition or M&A opportunity, or simply building a stronger company, Buy & Build Advisors provides practical guidance to help create a better business exit.
Could your business run without you for a month? Buy And Build Advisors wants to know!
Here’s a number that should scare more owners than it does: how many days could you be unreachable before the business started to wobble?
If it’s a small number, a buyer already knows, and they’ve priced it. Not because they doubt the earnings, but because they’re buying what runs after you leave. If too much of the company lives in your head, there’s less to actually buy.
A manufacturer we watched expected a five-times multiple. Then diligence found the founder held every key customer and priced every job by instinct. The buyer didn’t walk, they moved a big chunk of the price into a three-year earn out that only paid if he stayed and handed it all over. Good business. The dependence cost him millions in structure.
None of this gets fixed in the data room. It’s a year or two of deliberately handing things off, and the upside is a calmer business in the meantime.

What is the difference between an asset sale and a stock sale?
An asset sale transfers specific assets out of a business. A stock sale transfers ownership of the business itself.
In an asset sale, the buyer picks what they want. Equipment, inventory, customer contracts, intellectual property, the brand, the goodwill. The seller keeps the legal entity and whatever the buyer did not agree to take. In a stock sale, the buyer purchases the owner’s equity, and the entity keeps running with its assets, contracts, and obligations intact. People also call this asset purchase vs stock purchase, which is the same decision seen from the buyer’s side of the table. One detail that trips owners up: if you run an LLC instead of a corporation, the stock-sale equivalent is a sale of membership interests. The label changes. The reason it matters does not.

Many transactions run into trouble even when the buyer and seller agree on the strategic logic of the deal. The issue is often not price alone. It is the gap between what each side assumes about the business, the process, leadership continuity, and what should happen after close. A strong M&A strategy accounts for those issues early, before they start to slow execution or weaken confidence.
