Maximize the Value of Your Business—Before You Exit
You’ve spent years building your business. The long nights. The risks. The people. The wins.
But when it comes time to sell—or even consider your next chapter—most business owners make one critical mistake:
They wait too long to plan.
At OneAccord, we help owners like you realize and receive the full value of the business you’ve worked so hard to build. Whether you’re looking to sell in the next year or the next five, the best time to start preparing is now.
Your Business Is Valuable. Let’s Make Sure the Market Sees It That Way.
Most business owners underestimate the true worth of their company—or don’t know how to increase its value before they step away.
The value of your business isn’t just about revenue. It’s about how it runs without you.
Buyers don’t just purchase performance. They purchase confidence in continuity.
That’s where OneAccord comes in. We work with you to assess your operations, financials, and team structure—and build a plan to increase the value of your business while reducing the risks that turn buyers away.
What Does It Mean to Realize and Receive the Value?
To realize the value means understanding what your business is truly worth—and what’s driving (or limiting) that number. To receive the value means preparing your company to sell at its full potential—on your terms, not someone else’s.
We help you do both.
Whether you’re planning to sell or just exploring your options, we’ll guide you through:
Increasing your EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization), a key driver of business valuation
Identifying operational gaps that reduce enterprise value
Reducing owner dependency, which can drop your valuation by 10–30%
Minimizing risk factors like customer concentration or inconsistent processes
Building a leadership team that runs the business—not just follows you
Structuring the story of your business so the market sees its full potential
Why EBITDA Matters
In most business sales, a multiple is applied to EBITDA to calculate the sale price. For example:
- A $2M EBITDA with a 5x multiple = $10M valuation
- But with the right improvements, that multiple might be 7x = $14M
That $4M difference? It’s not hypothetical. It’s what we help you unlock through strategic planning, financial clarity, and leadership alignment.
The Value Killers (and How We Fix Them)
Even strong businesses can lose value when:
- The owner holds all the key relationships
- Financials are messy or unclear
- Team accountability is inconsistent
- There’s no clear growth story or plan
We help you fix the things that silently erode your company’s value—so when the time comes, you’re not reacting. You’re ready.
Our Approach: The Client Success Plan
Every engagement starts with a Client Success Plan—a customized roadmap built from discovery, financial analysis, market positioning, and decades of operational experience.
You don’t just get a document. You get a plan you can implement. With us, or without us.
We’ve worked with hundreds of owners across industries—from construction firms and manufacturers to service providers and family-run operations.
Some were preparing to sell in 12 months. Others didn’t want to think about selling for another 5 years. What they had in common?
A desire to protect what they’d built—and get the full value they deserve.
Start with a Conversation, Not a Commitment
You don’t have to be ready to sell.
You just need to be ready to think ahead.
We’re here to guide you—without pressure, without pretense. Just real experience and a plan that puts you in control of your future.
Let’s Build the Business Someone Will Want to Buy.
And make sure you’re the one who benefits most.
