Specialist M&A advisor Shield Corporate Finance is urging directors selling a business to use the summer for vital strategic planning if they are to gain the best possible price.

Summer is traditionally a quieter period in the mergers and acquisitions market as buyers and their advisers go on holiday.

But selling your business involves at least two to three months of extensive planning and preparations, warns Shield.

So entrepreneurs must start their strategic planning now if they are to catch the upsurge in demand that traditionally occurs in the autumn and the run-up to Christmas.

Directors who try to sell a business without having first carried out the correct preparations risk:

Specialist M&A advisors at Shield Corporate Finance help directors to carry out all the groundwork needed to gain optimum value from selling a business.

From valuing a business to advising on the factors that will underpin and boost its final sale price, Shield can offer vital help at every stage of the process.

Shield provides expert advice on exit strategies, guiding entrepreneurs through all the various options available.

Shield Founder and Chief Executive Dr David Young said: ?The final value of your business will depend heavily on the sale preparations that you put in place at the outset.

?Skimp on the detailed planning needed now and you will inevitably pay the price as the sale process progresses.

?Far too many directors underestimate the time involved in planning and preparation. There is no better time than the summer ? traditionally one of the quietest periods of the year ? to carry out this vital strategic work.?
