New Spring Capital will share an in depth view of what our courier business is really worth and best practices on how to prepare for an exit strategy. For most people selling their business is a once in a lifetime experience. Therefore even the most successful entrepreneurs realize they are not familiar with the process. Businesses earning millions of dollars per year, leaders in their industry, still must seek out proper advice because of the uniqueness and specialized knowledge required in selling one’s business. Many thoughts, questions and ideas go through an owner’s mind and yet not enough time and effort goes into the planning stage.
