How much is your business worth?

Every business owner starts their business with the intent to "sell it" sometime in the future, make a lump sum, and walk away.  Most likely, if you are reading this, you're more than far enough along in your ownership journey that you are now asking yourself:

"How much is my business worth?".


At Schiff Executive Benefits (SEB), we use a business valuation program called RISR that can help you find out. If you use Quickbooks, an owner can share their last three years of tax related data electronically, seamlessly, and securely through a link that we will send you to your PRIVATE valuation. After uploading that data, and answering a few questions about the operation of the business (i.e. ownership, tax structure, client concentration, operational questions, etc.), RISR will generate a SNAPSHOT value for SEB to review with you, so that you can realize your DREAM value in the future.

Using the results from the report, you can:

  • Negotiate offers with potential buyers,

  • Discuss with management ways to improve profitability

  • Review potential business valuation risks, and

  • Align your people with the future growth of the company.


Here were some of the solutions that our clients decided upon after engaging SEB:

  • Sold to an outside party

  • Implemented an Installment (structured) sale to the employees/family member

  • Employee Stock Ownership Plans



    • Sell some or ALL of your stock

    • Retain Control of the company

    • Immediate Tax Savings for an S Corp

    • Provides Retention Strategy for ALL employees



  • Buy/Sell Planning Between Partners upon:

    • Death

    • Disability, or

    • Retirement



  • Tax Efficient Retention Strategies

    • Executive Bonus

    • Restricted Executive Bonus (REBA)

    • Supplemental Retirement Plan

    • Excess 401K Plans

Employee Stock Ownership Plan – ESOP Overview

Check out more about Employee Stock Ownership Plans with Dan Zugell of Business Transition Associates as it pertains to some options that closely held business owners have in today's economic environment.

As a business owner, one of the best ways of maximizing the sale of your largest assets, is by exploring what an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) can do for you.





When selling your company to an ESOP, you can sell part of your shares or all of your shares, are even schedule when the stock will be sold. When combined with the tax efficiency of the ESOP plan, and the ability to still control the operations of the company, the owner has the opportunity to have his cake and eat it too.





That said, ESOPs are not for everyone. And the discussion on this video will walk you through the high level benefits and pitfalls. If you are interested in learning more, then dive into the second and third video about the topic.





We look forward to hearing from you, and helping in a customized plan design that fits your needs.
