Build Sell Retire (ePub)

When global entrepreneur, Chris Averill stepped into the world of M&A little did he know of the pitfalls and challenges that awaited him.

Slightly bruised and battered, he nevertheless walked away successfully selling his business for much more than he expected. Armed with this experience and knowledge, Chris was determined to guide any business owner along the bumpy road from growth to acquisition. In this invaluable resource, he shares his knowledge in an honest, no holds barred, yet highly informative way combining it with interviews with business owners, sellers, buyers, investors and all those caught in the middle.

Advice on how to prepare ahead of any sale, who to engage with and what to expect is clearly laid out which busts any myths of who you can trust, answers key questions and wipes the gloss off any perceived wisdom in the M&A industry.

The Blueprint every business owner should read.
