Strategic Value

Strategic value is created when the underlying assets and/or capabilities are able to be exploited by a large corporation through its own customer base, distribution channel or organization.

Strategic Buyers

Strategic buyers are usually large corporations who have the capability and capacity to fully exploit the underlying potential of the acquired asset or capability. They are typically frequent acquirers, normally found in the same industry as the seller and have a good record of successful exploitation of acquired ventures.

Preparing the Business for Sale

It is all in the preparation! Strategic trade sales are based on established relationships. Having identified the potential buyers, the task of the seller is to develop a relationship so that the buyer can be educated on the value of an acquisition. The seller then needs to prepare the business for sale so that the buyer can properly and quickly exploit the acquisition benefits.



Deal Considerations

When it comes to negotiating the deal there are a lot of aspects to consider. Remember what you are trying to achieve and what result you want after the deal is done.

Strategy

Start setting out your sale strategy as soon as possible. Think about all the stakeholders and what they need to get out of the deal.
