Every situation is going to vary. It's going to depend on the size of company ownership, and tax status as an S-corp or C-Corp. So one size does not fit all. - Gerald
It's lonely at the top, in the sense that you have no one on your team to talk to about succession, selling the business, or planning to sell the business until the moment is right. -Kit
I would say that what differentiates us is We run a personal financial plan parallel to a business plan every time we work with business owners and we come in often to find out that no business owners ever really do a personal financial plan. - Gerald
What sets us apart from other businesses is that we want to listen first, then ask excellent questions before offering answers. - Rick

Your unique product will be considered as just another commodity by your target market until you build value for it. In order to create value for your product, you must first understand what value means to your target market. What are their needs and wants? How can your product improve their lives? Once you have a clear understanding of your target market's needs, you can begin to formulate a value proposition that will resonate with them. Only then will you be able to set your product apart from the competition and secure the loyalty of long-term customers.

13 MAY 2022 · Unlike other components of diligence, market due diligence does not base its findings on information given by the corporation. Market due diligence, on the other hand, entails acquiring information from industry experts, rivals, consumers, and, in certain cases, suppliers and other third-party market participants.
Chris Longiaru and David Hoad, Acclaro Growth Partners specialists in market due diligence, join us in this podcast to discuss what market due diligence is and why it is crucial in the merger and acquisition sector of business. They also emphasize the need of understanding the business's customer while performing due diligence. They also discuss why corporations use them and the typical method for doing market due diligence. They specifically express the obstacles and values of doing due diligence for business owners and give some lessons for future potential market acquirers.
If you're interested in learning more about organic growth, growth by acquisition, or the increase of capitalization of your company, this will be interesting and useful for you.
Key Takeaways
-What is Market/Commercial Due Diligence?
-Why is it important to understand the customer in doing due diligence?
-Why the Need of an Expert in Market Due Diligence?
-What is the process of doing Market Due Diligence?
-The Challenges and Values of doing Due Diligence for business owners
-How does Market Refresh Study help owners sell their business after acquiring it or buying it?
Quote Takeaways
“If the acquirers manage the transaction personally and call the company or competitors about it, they may not be completely honest with each other, which may have an influence on the transaction or the response they offer, therefore outsourcing us experts is more realistic.” - Chris
“We have done this for many years in many markets and industries, and we have the expertise to ask the proper questions and go in depth and to the specifics that are really more robust and accurate because we have done it for many years in many markets and sectors”. - David
