Preparing for Due Diligence
2026-03-12 13:00 - 14:00 UTC
Due diligence can make or break a deal. When you prepare early, you avoid delays, prevent renegotiations, and reduce the risk of a collapsed sale. In this webinar, we explain what due diligence involves and why buyers rely on it so heavily. We walk through the financial, legal, and operational areas that buyers review most. You’ll see how records, contracts, and systems shape buyer confidence.
We also outline each stage of diligence and show how it connects to negotiations and financing. We then highlight the common issues that derail deals. These include inconsistent financials, unclear ownership records, outdated contracts, and hidden liabilities. By understanding these risks from a buyer’s point of view, you can address concerns before they slow the process.
Finally, we give you practical steps to prepare now. You’ll learn how to organize documents, clean up financials, and fix operational gaps before buyers begin their review. With the right plan, you can present a clean, deal-ready business that moves buyers forward with confidence.

2026-02-19 13:00 - 14:00
Every owner has a number in mind, but the market often sees things differently. Knowing your true, defensible value is the key to setting realistic expectations and preparing for a successful exit. In this webinar, we’ll explore how business value is determined in real-world transactions. You’ll learn how buyers, lenders, and the market assess worth, and why valuations aren’t just about revenue and profit, but also about risk, industry trends, and the story your numbers tell.
We’ll also explain the difference between informal “rules of thumb,” broker opinions, and defensible valuations that can stand up under scrutiny. We’ll then unpack the key drivers that increase or decrease valuation. From strong recurring revenue and clean financials to customer concentration and owner dependence, you’ll see the factors that buyers pay close attention to — and how those factors directly affect what they’re willing to offer. We’ll also cover common pitfalls that reduce value and how to address them before you go to market.
Finally, we’ll provide practical steps you can take now to strengthen your business’s value position. Whether it’s tightening operations, documenting processes, or addressing risk areas, you’ll leave with clear, actionable ideas to boost your valuation and approach potential buyers with confidence.

Preparing You Business For Sale
2026-01-15 13:00 - 14:00
Selling a business takes more than putting it on the market. The better prepared you are, the smoother the process and the stronger the offers you’ll receive. In this webinar, we’ll cover what it really means to get a business sale-ready. Buyers want businesses that feel organized, well-documented, and capable of thriving without the current owner at the helm.
We’ll walk through the elements of preparation, from financial clarity to operational systems, that increase buyer confidence and reduce risk. We’ll also identify the red flags that can hurt your chances of closing or weaken your negotiating power. These include overdependence on the owner, customer concentration issues, unorganized financials, or lease terms that don’t support long-term stability. Understanding these pitfalls allows you to address them before they become deal-breakers.
Finally, we’ll provide a step-by-step checklist to help you prepare with confidence. From cleaning up your books to documenting processes and strengthening your management team, you’ll leave with practical actions that not only make your business more attractive to buyers but also improve its value while you still own it.
