Martinka Consulting's Getting the Deal Done Podcast John & Jessica Martinka

Sports teams are just that, a team. It's rare one player can do it all. Even Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Tom Brady, etc, didn't win every year.

In business a solid team that reduces the owner's role (no owner dependency) is a key value driver.

Listen for some examples and stories about great teams and strategies.

Nick Anderson is the (fairly new) CEO of OneAccord in Kirkland, WA. His task is to streamline their value proposition, which is now helping companies increase value.

They do it through fractional C-level people, coaching, and strategic planning. Each client gets a "Success Manager" in addition to  their on-the-ground advisor. This assures accountability is maintained.

They have a roster of seasoned advisors with different specialties, all to benefit the client.

There are value drivers galore and in this episode (recorded in beautiful Antigua, West Indies where you can hear the roar of the surf) we cover why having an exit plan increases a company's value.

From the financials to the employees and customers to showing how you've grown over the last few years it let's a buyer know you're serious and motivated.

In 2012 I published two posts, one with tips for business buyers and one with tips for sellers. When I came across it in my files I realized those tips are just as relevent today as they were in 2012 (and many decades prior). 

For buyers it's about being aggressive throughout the process.

For sellers, it's getting educated on what's involved (like massive amounts of information to provide the buyer and his/her lawyer), that the right buyer is the most important factor, and more.

Recorded in beautiful Antigua, West Indies (hear the roar of the surf). 

It's always a great and interesting story when talking about sloppy bookkeeping,, inaccurate financial statements, and anything similar. But let's not forget that many companies have very clean books and the financial statements actually reflect the performance of the company. 

In this episode, I discuss a handful of clients who have books and in one case, the  financial statements and tax returns, actually match.
