S03E04: Preparing To Sell Your Online Business (Part 2)

February 15, 2017 by Justin Cooke Leave a Comment

Subscribe to our VIP LISTIn last week’s Part 1 of this 2-part series, we looked at the preliminary steps you’d want to take if you plan to sell your business – from getting started all the way through 12 months out.

This week, we’ll cover the process from 9 months out all the way through the day you list your business for sale.

We’ll dig into growing your revenue, cutting expenses to maximize your earnings/margins, and putting teams and process in place to maximize the value of your business.

The goal with this 2-part episode is to give you a blueprint you can use to list (and ultimately sell) your business for the best price.

If you’re thinking about selling your business in the next 12 months, you’ll definitely want to give this one a listen. You’ll likely pick up a few tips you can use along the way.

While you can self-fund your website purchases and online acquisitions, that’s not the ONLY way to close deals.

In this week’s episode, Justin and Ace look at several different strategies you can use to leverage investors to purchase websites and online businesses.

We dig into where to find investors, how to approach them with your plan, and look at how to both pitch them and provide them a return on their investment.

Using leverage can be risky, but might allow you to reach up and get deals that would otherwise be out of reach.
