Experts will say that value is ultimately determined by a free market transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller. As a seller, anticipating a sale transaction soon or in the future, you should be concerned with how your business will be viewed in the minds of the potential buyers and how you can affect that. You have a price in your own mind. The question is, “What can you do to cause buyers to be willing to pay you that price or, better yet, even more.”
