INTRODUCTION
Programmatic mergers and acquisitions are a strategic approach to M&A deals that companies use to acquire several smaller companies to achieve specific goals, such as growth and value creation. This strategy differs from traditional M&A transactions, which usually involve singular transactions and higher valuations.
You have worked so hard and so long to build your business. You deserve to make the most of the time that comes after successfully selling it to the right buyer. You have likely grown accustomed to dedicating your time and energy to your company, which may make it challenging and cause you to feel uncertain when navigating the new era that follows your exit. Some owners find this time easier to sort out than others. But it's okay to feel unsure about what you should be doing now, after years of pouring your life into your company. You know that it's time to focus on the future. But what exactly does that entail? Here are some important places to start.
Company valuations are a vital part of business sales, as they determine market value. Any buyer showing interest in your business will want the most accurate idea of what it is worth.
