Exit strategies

Succession planning

Whether you’re handing over to a handpicked successor or selling your business, it’s always best to approach the task strategically to maximise the benefit for all concerned.

That’s sometimes easier said than done – it can be emotional, especially if family members are involved – which is why the advice of an objective outsider can be invaluable.

Executing a well thought out exit plan has the potential to significantly increase your sale price and secure your legacy, ensuring the business continues to run successfully after you have left.

We can work with you to get your company in the best possible shape for handover to a new owner, operating profitably and smoothly, with clean, tidy records.

And if the new owner needs briefing and support as they embed themselves in the business and get to grips with its financial situation, Horsfield & Smith can help with that too.
