It shouldn't cost anything to begin the process of selling, buying or developing a business. This is the clear conviction of Virksomhedsbørsen as, which is why FIAG has been developed.
Where do you start and where do you want to end up when considering selling or buying a business, raising capital or taking on a partner?
Crucial to a successful process is gaining an understanding of the overall process so that you can stay focused and on top of things, ensuring that the process begins and ends in the right way - with a direct aim at achieving the goals you have set for yourself and your project.
Poor advice and a lack of overview and insight results in a completely wrong focus and is the obvious path to an unintentional invoice trap. Not knowing which phases to involve each consultant in, which approaches and solutions to avoid at all costs and why, can be costly. And you risk not reaching your goal on time - if you reach your goal at all.
At Virksomhedsbørsen as, we want you to gain the necessary insight into the entire process so that you have optimal conditions for a successful process. That's why they offer FIAG, which is free initial sparring for owner-managers in connection with the sale, purchase and development of a company.
Where should you start?
"What can I get for my business?" and "how long will it take to sell my business?" are among the most frequently asked questions prior to a sale process. But that's not really where you should start. Instead, the focal point should be whether you are ready to sell your business from a business and personal perspective.
Therefore, you should not start with an online valuation based on publicly available financial statements from www.cvr.dk or other general key figures. Such a valuation does not take into account unknowns and the commercial understanding needed to produce a realistic and useful valuation. At worst, it can ruin your chances of selling your business. At best, it is "merely" conspicuously misleading.
Activate FIAG early in the process
With FIAG, you ensure that you have the right approach to the upcoming process, so you know where to start, where to end and how to reach your goal.
As "free, initial sparring" suggests, it's optimal to make FIAG part of the process from the beginning. If you've already started the work but lack the overview, it's not too late to activate FIAG. The free initial sparring is always based on the phase you are in and guides you from there.
In one case, this may involve an invitation to enter into a dialog with one of the other advisors, while the next step in another context may be a collaboration with Virksomhedsbørsen as. It always depends on where you are in the process and what considerations you have made.
