    Preparing a Business for Transfer or Sale

    A business that is ready to be taken over transfers better.

    The challenge

    Many owners think about selling too late. The business still depends on them, processes aren't written down, and the numbers are hard to read. A buyer sees these risks — and they weigh on the deal, when they don't sink it.

    Who it's for

    SME owners in Quebec considering selling or transferring their business in the coming years: to a third party, to family, or to employees.

    Our approach

    1. Readiness diagnostic

      What is ready, what is blocking, what will worry a buyer.

    2. Putting things in order

      Documented processes, readable financial information, up-to-date contracts.

    3. Team autonomy

      Reducing the business's dependence on its owner.

    4. Transition plan

      Handing over clients, suppliers, and know-how.
