What do buyers want?

A robust market often triggers a spike in the M&A sector and today’s current market is certainly seeing strong demand, as many business owners look to make an exit.

In follow up to our recent webinar 'The creation of a saleable agency', we now turn our attention to what buyers want.

Join Paul Masters, Managing Partner at Sovereign Private and James Hone, Founder and CEO at Bluefin Resources Group to gain a first hand insight into the acquisition process and what active buyers look for.

Over the course of this webinar, Paul and James will discuss the following:

• Apart from good financials and solid growth prospects, what do you look for in an acquisition?
• What are the hot sectors for acquisition at the moment and are you looking to acquire in these sectors?
• What are some of the mistakes or regrets you have in respect of past acquisitions you have made or missed out on?
• How important is a contractor book? Is there a perfect mix between temp and perm?
• When considering contractors, is margin important or do low margin high volume plays still work?
• If business owners are looking to divest their business in the future, what is the one bit of advice you would give them? And, what can be an instant turn off when considering an acquisition?
