Reasons To Sell Your Business
• Interested in retiring, cashing-out, or starting a new
adventure?
• Eager to exit your UK business so you can to enjoy more time
with loved ones?
• Spend some of your hard-earned cash or do all the things
you’ve always want to do but never had the time?

Learn How To Avoid Mistakes
• I wrote the book for two reasons:
– To help business owners gain an equal footing against
business buyers and all the other professionals involved in
the process. If you go into the sale process blind, chances
are that you’ll be taken for a ride.
– I and the Business Wand team can’t personally help every
UK business through our consultancy services so this book
is the next best thing. I originally thought that helping
businesses to prepare for sale was a small market. Boy –
was I wrong! Ever since team and I launched our
consultancy services, we’ve been inundated with requests.

Feedback On The Book
“A must read for anyone remotely thinking of selling their UK business! This
book has been a godsend! We haven't successfully completed the sale
process yet however this book has saved us time, money and seriously
reduced the amount of stress we would have had otherwise. I didn't know
how much work was involved in selling - thankfully a friend recommended
this...” Anna Smith, Advantage
“Overall - Great stuff! Would have loved something like this before we came
to sell.” Jim, Inition
