Buyer and seller do not hold disparate goals; selling for maximum value and optimum tax rate--and buying for minimum risk and complete write-off--are part of the same strategy that must be the ultimate goal for the good of the industry. Unfortunately, financial advisors tend to make the same two critical mistakes. Exit planning is not succession planning, and every sale or acquisition is different. This book shows you how to complete a sale or acquisition with the best possible terms for both buyer and seller, through deliberate consideration of the size, structure, and sophistication of the opportunity. The companion website provides tools, worksheets, and checklists to aid immediate implementation, and the expert insight will prove invaluable regardless of which side of the table you're on. Buying or selling the result of a lifetime's work requires years of experience to master. This book gives you the benefit of high-level expertise in the multiple disciplines that contribute to a successful sale or acquisition, to provide the perspective and skills you need to work through the deal.
