For most owners of Plumbing, Electrical, Landscaping, Tiling, or similar service based trades businesses selling a business only happens once. That poses a few challenges but also some opportunities, with one of the challenges being that because you only do it once you’re not well prepared and probably don’t even know how to make a business more valuable and more profitable.

You work hard anyway, so you might as well direct that hard work toward making the business more valuable, after all, it has the potential to be the most valuable asset you own, assuming it’s not already. You don’t want to work all these years, to go to cash in your chips and find out that chips aren’t worth anything. It’s not as simple as just making sales or looking at a similar sized business and assuming yours is worth the same, you need to know your stuff.
