Thinking of selling your business? The truth is, most owners wait too long to prepare and end up leaving serious money on the table.
Selling isn’t just another transaction. It’s one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. And whether you’re planning to sell in 12 months or 10 years, the work you do now can make all the difference when the time comes.
That’s why Ben Walker and Rizal Ramzan are hosting a live session on Friday, 7th November at 10:00am (QLD time). Together, they’ll unpack the real challenges that stop business owners from achieving the sale price they deserve, and more importantly, how to fix them.
Here are some of the biggest deal-breakers that turn buyers away:
❌ Low profitability. If the profit doesn’t justify the risk, buyers won’t bite.
❌ Overdependence on the owner. If the business can’t run without you, the value plummets.
❌ Cash flow headaches. Inconsistent cash flow is one of the biggest red flags.
❌ Unmanaged risks. Poor financials or no systems in place can slash your multiple.
❌ Timing mistakes. Waiting too long means missing years of value-building opportunities.
In this session, you’ll also learn the flipside - what buyers actually want to see:
✅ The drivers that make your business more attractive from day one
✅ Simple ways to boost profitability and strengthen cash flow
✅ A practical framework for lifting your business value
✅ The real red flags buyers look for (and how to avoid them)
This isn’t theory. Ben and Riz have worked alongside countless business owners to grow, protect, and successfully sell their companies. They’ll share the wins, the mistakes, and the strategies that actually move the needle.
By the end, you’ll walk away with the clarity and confidence to get your business sale-ready - and to maximise its value when it’s time to step away.
