“64 Ways to Increase and Enhance the Value of a Business” is the title of an article I posted two weeks ago. This was written for fellow business consultants and valuation advisors and is a pretty thorough checklist of how a business’ value can be increased, and sometimes by little changes. It was posted on www.QuickReadBuzz.com a premier site for the valuation and consulting community and of which I am on the editorial board.

Buyers usually look at earnings as a primary driver of value, but there are many other factors such as strategic value, competitive position, branding, secret processes and costs to duplicate. There are also many other influences, some not so evident or obvious, some intangible and some in the “good feelings” attitude about the business or its prospects. At the end of the day, it is sometimes hard to pinpoint exactly what made the difference for the buyer to close on the transaction. This article presents 64 items that can either increase or enhance a business’ value, or in the absence of them, decrease the value.

I wrote the article along with Henry R. Mandell, CPA (inactive) who serves as a collaborative partner for owners and managers on how to drive value, tighten controls and improve profitability. Henry is based in Los Angeles.

If you are an owner, manager, CFO or controller of a business, of any size, there will be something in here for you. A direct link is here.
