KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Sellers holding out for moonshot valuations are inevitably in for a disappointment if they hold out too long, The cost of capital is rising, recessions are coming and the trends are down.
  • Your business is the single most valuable asset you own, even if it’s not doing that well. It has the potential to be turned around and energised. People won’t just give them away.
  • Messaging that’s invaluable to business owners needs to kept front and centre and away from sensationalist agendas.
  • Following the building and incubation phase of a business comes the harvest. You typically find businesses far sale when they’re in this phase or later.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Everyone’s been pounding the table about recession’

‘What is the average valuation is going to be less and less meaningful’

‘It was beyond the plating phase. it needed incubation’

‘Running on autopilot is not real’
