Transcript: 

Stephen: You know, there's a lot of factors that impact value. The business, you have internal factors about the company itself, as well as, on the other end, maximizing value through properly handling the sale process. When I say internal factors, I include addressing areas such as customer or vendor concentration. And, you know, buyer's will really have concerns about that. Another major concern is share-holder or employee dependency that will really effect value. So, I could talk for hours on the topic of what factors impact value, or how you can build value, but really, it all comes down to how predictable and sustainable are the sales and earnings looking ahead into the future?

Transcript: 

Bill: Looking for a quick dietary tip to reduce your risk of cancer? Here's Doctor David Leonardi.

David: Most people are convinced that protein is a critical part of our nutrition, and the consumption of plenty of animal protein is pretty standard in the Western Diet. But, we've long known from published studies, that high protein diets on a bio-chemical level, are actually deleterious. So, recently, a study published in 2014 finally looked at the relationship between protein intake and mortality In people aged 50-65, the intake of animal protein, in this study, correlated directly with mortality. Now, when I say animal protein, almost everybody thinks of red meat, but I'm talking about animal protein in general. So, this includes all meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. So the intake of animal protein correlated directly with mortality in people aged 50-65, but when they looked at plants as the source of protein, the relationship with mortality was nearly abolished. And there's several reasons for this, number one: animal protein contains higher levels of an amino acid called methionine, and cancer cells thrive on methionine. Secondly, Bill, how do we usually cook animal protein? Meat or fish, we usually grill it or broil it. These very hot or very dry cooking processes form carcinogens on the surface of the meat or fish called heterocyclic amines, and they create inflammatory molecules within the meat or fish. All these create a bio-chemical environment that promotes the risk of a mutation to cancer, and also more rapid growth of that cancer.

Linda Duffy - Which Assets Get More Valuable With Time? (G0417)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a 1 minute highlight from an interview with one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to sell all of their interviews!

In this 1 minute highlight, Linda Duffy, President and Founder, Ethos Human Capital Solutions discusses the importance of recognizing that it is your Human Assets -- your key people, that are getting more valuable with each passing day.

Transcript: 

Linda: The thing about human capital assets, is they're actually the only asset that appreciates over time instead of depreciates over time. So, they're going to develop new knowledge, skills, and abilities, they're going to have tribal knowledge or organizational knowledge that takes a long time to replace when it walks out the door. And so, anything that you can do to develop those assets is great, and to make sure you're getting the right ROI or ROA, whatever it is that you want. Choose some metrics for your industry, for your organization, and measure them. It may be revenue per payroll dollar, or per full-time headcount, something like that. It could be air rates, it could be productivity per employee, whatever is appropriate for your organization. 

Bill: Is that an area that you can help employers, to help them figure out where to go to get those metrics, or what would be reasonable?

Linda: Yeah, absolutely. We can come in and look at the business, I get pretty involved with the CEO or the business owner, to actually understand the business and take a look and those numbers to make sure they are trending in the right direction.

Kathy Condon - Face-to-Face Networking in the Digital Age (G0217)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kathy Condon discusses networking strategies, including the finer points of starting conversations, asking questions, and the importance of listening. 

Transcript: 

Bill: Networking is a big thing these days, and a lot of people just don't know how to make small talk. 

Kathy: That's why I tell people, come up with questions so they can start conversations. I'll share with you one of my best questions for anyone that you wanna get to know better. You look them in the eye, and you say, "tell me something great that happened to you lately." In order for the person to answer that question, they have to think of something great that happened to them, and the key here, is if you listen to the answer, you can easily ask another question. And the whole idea when you're out networking, is it's all about them, not about you. You know everything you know, what you want to do is, you want to learn about the other person. 

 

Brandon Miller - The Employee Owner's Manual (G0117)

This is a 1 minute preview of one of today's featured Guest. Give it a listen and share it with your friends, and if you like the content be sure and listen to the full 20 minute interview!

Transcript: 

Bill: If there were one diagnostic tool that creates the operations manual for a human being, would it be Strengthsfinder, in your assessment? 

Brandon: I think so, and here's why. Dr. Clifton, who is the founder of Strengthsfinder in 1949, had the question, what would happen when we think about what's right with people, rather than what's wrong? And the man devoted his entire life to studying this idea of strength and talent. His conclusion was, we have so many words to describe what's wrong with us in psychology, where are all the words to describe what's right? And, he happened to live in the same city with George Gallup. Ended up purchasing Gallup, which, at the time, was providing the world with polling data, sampling for making decisions, understanding what we thought. Well, there hasn't been a comprehensive study in it's kind. Over 40 years, 2 million people surveyed, in my experience working with the instrument, with all of the academia behind it, all of the analysts, they're all available publicly, it's fascinating to learn how they arrived at their conclusions. This is a marvelous tool. I think it really provides a broad inventory, because not only can you see your top 5, but for a little more of an investment you can see all 34, so you actually see all the talents you use everyday, but you also can learn the ones that you don't use, that aren't a part of you. Which aren't meant to grow them, but meant to understand, "wow, if I have these, and my fellow leader has a different set, it helps me understand our differences," and those differences are actually advantages, not intended to be annoyances, so we learn how to leverage both. So, I would answer yes to that question, and actually feel very strongly about that.

Transcript: 

Kevin: Strong management is thinking about branding every day. Every decision, they run in through their "how does this effect our brand" filter. That's important, but most small businesses don't do that, not even thinking about it on an annual basis. If that's you, I think it's time to get serious right now. I think that, if you're planning an exit, you need to be thinking about your brand three years prior to sell, because it takes time to build up the reputation. Like I said, for Trillium, it took them 5 years to go from, "okay we're gonna fake it 'til we make it," it took 5 years for them to become the market leader.

Transcript:

Ross: Before we made our exit, we wanted to build a company that we could be proud of, that could be a legacy company, that could have and be a player in the toy-space. That was our first priority. Out exit strategy was to either go public, or sell the company to a larger player in the industry that could capitalize it even more, and that's what we did. It's an expensive business model when you're talking about a business like the toy business. Sometimes, you put in 50 - $100,000 into a product and it doesn't sell. So, we knew that going in, we knew the model was tough, but we wanted to build a company that we could be proud of. Then, as some point we knew we have to find a strategic partner to come in and really capitalize it the way it needs to be capitalized.

Leo Klijn - In Any Event Start Exit Planning Early (F1317)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In this 1 minute highlight, Leo Klijn, Exit Strategy Planning, Henberger, discusses the need to start planning for your Exit early no matter how you think your business will transition.

Transcript

Bill: In all the interviews we’ve done with professional advisors, we keep hearing it’s too plan early for your exit, but what about when you’re expecting for a private equity firm to come in and buy out part of your company? 

We asked exit planning expert Leo Klijn for his advice on when to plan.

Leo: First question venture capitalist firms or private equity firms will ask you is, what’s the exit strategy? So, I would argue that every business should have a business plan, and the most important chapter in a business plan is the exit plan, so it’s never too early to have an exit plan. If you haven’t done one, at a minimum, I would argue 3-5 years before you get out. Because the single biggest value driver is the strength of your management team, and what I find in our space is that most of the time the owners play a good role in running the business, if that’s the case replacing that often takes time.”

Transcript: 

Wally: I just made a presentation at a Vistage-like group today, and the guy said, "Well, you know, we pay people bonuses based on their performance behaviors." And I said, "Well, give me an example of a performance behavior." And he said, "Working with a sense of urgency." And I said, "Okay, how do you define urgency?" "Well, I know it when I see it." Oh, okay. See, that's a judgement. When the boss walks by, you can look busy, right? In fact, when the boss isn't there, the other employees are saying, "Hey! Slow down, you're making us look bad. We need some overtime." And so, employees will get around this stuff. You know, when you try to control them, you can't do it. You can't even control your kids at home, how are you going to control your employees? They have to want to put the effort in, which is engagement. So, setting up an environment that's engaging is the key. And, when you're judging them, it's gonna damage engagement, that's one of the things that it does, it damages engagement.

So, what we're seeing is that people are unprepared to handle these kinds of things by doing the proactive risk management they need to do, which means they need to have things like employment practices liability insurance, and and a professionally drafted employment manual in place, and then have trained everybody to do the right thing in the business.
