A business´s “sellability” requires that the business not be
overly reliant on any one customer, employee or supplier. The name "The
Switzerland Structure" was inspired by Switzerland´s focus on neutrality. Most
businesses we talk need to start making improvements in this area to maximize
the value of their company.
Over The next few days we are going to discuss The
Switzerland Structure and how it applies in 3 areas of your business: your suppliers, your
employees and your customers. We will discuss ideas you can put into play to
increase your independence, thereby increasing the ease of sale and the value
of your business to a buyer in the future.
Check back tomorrow and we will start talking about
evaluating your independence and what you can do to improve in in the area of
your suppliers.
