Every asset is eventually sold (or transferred in an Estate) and your business is typically a major part of your asset portfolio.So it therefore makes sense to have a mindset to treat your business just like any other asset. What's its purpose and why are you doing what you do?That's not an uncommon approach from Management Consultants but it's a very different approach to what you'd expect to find from a Business Broker. But as you'll hear, Simon Bedard's financial management background makes perfect sense that he thinks this way.Simon has over 20 years experience in the in the finance, energy and technology sectors and having worked as an investment banker in Institutional Banking and Global Markets, and holds an MBA through RMIT University, The Exit Advisory Group helps business owners migrate their way through the question of “What's my business worth when I eventually sell?”That's not an unusual question for a business broker to ask, but the unique position that Simon takes is that “If you have a Vision, we have a way to get you there”Simon Bedard LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/business-sales-sydney/Exit Advisory Group  Website: https://exitadvisory.com.au/LinkedIn Company Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/exitadvisorygroup/Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/exitadvisorygroup/Instagram Page: https://www.instagram.com/exitadvisorygroup/YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ16bg2expmwNDbcHyjWCxwBuy Grow Sell  Website: https://buygrowsell.com/LinkedIn Company Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/buy-grow-sell-biz/Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/buygrowsellbizInstagram Page: https://www.instagram.com/buygrowsellbiz/YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-lrfSVRd4deO0kDj0ort3ABook a call with Simon and donte $50 to https://www.kiva.org/ Stephen Sandor CEO Inspiring BusinessInspiring Business website - www.inspiringbusiness.netBook an Exploration Call here - https://inspiringbusiness.net/exploration-call-booking/The Scale to Success System - https://inspiringbusiness.net/deep-dive-program/Stephen Sandor LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephen-sandor/Inspiring Business LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/inspiring-businessFacebook https://www.facebook.com/inspiringbusinessaustralia

The ultimate freedom is to own a company that is valuable, scalable, and saleable. We are buying and selling businesses every day, so we know what drives company value. Most business owners start their company to achieve some type of freedom - whether it's financial, time, or the freedom to set their own rules. But along the way, very few achieve this. I am passionate about turning this around by helping entrepreneurs build valuable businesses and exit on their own terms.

BIO: Simon Bedard is the CEO of Exit Advisory Group, a boutique M&A firm, that also provides a range of advisory services focused on exit strategies and how to maximize company value. STORY: Simon had a client who convinced him to change the terms of their contract. The change worked in Simon's favor because he made $2 million after delivering his services instead of the low seven-figure he had quoted. Unfortunately, the client now felt this was more than he expected and refused to pay up. LEARNING: Make your contracts airtight enough to cover you during conflicts. A contract is important but doesn't have to be everything.   “If you don't understand all the elements of your contracts, then you'll make decisions on flawed information.”Simon Bedard  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/business-sales-sydney/ (Simon Bedard) is the CEO of Exit Advisory Group, a boutique M&A firm, that also provides a range of advisory services focused on exit strategies and how to maximize company value. Simon's experience spans over 20 years in the finance, investment, energy, and technology sectors. As an entrepreneur, Simon has started, bought, and exited his own companies. He has also worked for one of Australia's largest banks as an investment advisor to high-net-worth clients and private companies. Simon's passion is helping business owners understand where they want to be, then building a business that can get them there. Worst investment everSimon's company had this particular client that they wanted to work with. The company negotiated a contract and put a standard fee based on the valuation they did. This was a solid seven-figure. The client came back and renegotiated the contract wanting a sliding scale with the aim of getting Simon's company to push for higher valuations. He told them that this was unnecessary because his firm is motivated and would do the best possible work. But because the company could make more from this deal, Simon accepted their terms. The company went on to deliver more than the client expected. By the time it came to getting the deal done, the valuation was probably 50% higher than the client initially thought. And so, Simon's fee went from a low seven-figure to over $2 million. Now the client didn't want to pay. They went down the path of just blatantly making up lies and never paid up. Lessons learnedWhen structuring your contracts, make sure that you include things that you are willing to accept and not accept and make sure it is tight. When getting into a contract, do a basic scenario analysis of good and bad outcomes and how clients are likely to react to certain things. Be wary of making your contracts super tight and aggressive because every deal has different underpinnings. Know what you can afford to give up to keep both parties happy. Andrew's takeawaysContracts only matter at the point of conflict. So make sure you're protected from that. A contract is important but doesn't have to be everything. Things change, and you can always talk, resolve issues, and modify a contract if necessary. Actionable adviceWhatever you invest in, make sure you spend time assessing all the variables and understand where the risk sits. No. 1 goal for the next 12 monthsSimon's number one goal for the next 12 months is to find good solid advisors and people to join his team and help us have the kind of impact we want to have.

Welcome to the second and last half of our two-part series all about the powerful opportunities available for businesses in using mergers or acquisitions to deliver years (or decades) of growth in one deal, and why it is such a killer growth strategy.
