Hi, I’m Nik
Founder of Inflow.
We do business value creation first and acquisition advisory after.
At Inflow we give you clarity on the exact steps you need to take NOW to get the most value out of your business. We help you set a clear vision of what a perfect business and exit looks like for you and help you reverse engineer this outcome.
Most founders think one day someone will come along and buy their amazing business.
In our experience the opposite is true. The reality is 80% of companies are unsellable, and of the 20% that are sellable, 50% of deals that enter an M&A process fall over because they fail due diligence. Its a brutal market truth that most will never get to experience unless you step into the void and experience it for yourself.
We think there is a better way to do this so if you are serious about selling one day, this could be a great opportunity to get to know one another so we can get on the front foot with all this and put the frameworks in your hands that let you build a business with significantly more value than your peers and transact successfully.
Our recommendation is simple.
Preparation is everything. Start earlier than feels natural, know the mechanics behind your valuation and start building a list of potential buyers well before you’re ready to sell.
Then you need a process to capture that value when you decide to exit.
