Even Not running profit business can be sold at a valuable price.
it’s important to recognise that a business that is not currently turning a profit can still hold significant value. Profitability is just one aspect of a company’s overall worth. Other factors, such as its customer base, intellectual property, brand reputation, strategic assets, and growth potential, can contribute to its value. Investors and buyers may see opportunities to turn the business around, leverage its assets, or integrate it into their existing operations, making it possible to sell a non-profitable business at a valuable price. It often depends on the specific circumstances and the perspective of potential buyers.
Gabrielle encountered a unique opportunity when she crossed paths with a landlord without experience operating a childcare business. The landlord expressed a desire to venture into the childcare industry and obtained a sessional kindergarten license. However, the business incurred significant losses during its first 12 months due to the limited operating hours.
Recognising the challenge, Gabrielle swiftly identified a solution. She suggested that the landlord apply for a long day care license, allowing for extended operating hours and increased revenue potential. Gabrielle guided the landlord through the application process and successfully obtained the long day care license.
Leveraging her extensive network, Gabrielle connected the landlord with an experienced childcare operator who recognised the business’s potential. Through her negotiation skills and comprehensive understanding of the market, Gabrielle secured a favorable price for the business and a mutually beneficial rental agreement. Throughout the transaction, Gabrielle provided unwavering support and guidance, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for the landlord.
The landlord expressed deep appreciation and excitement about the income generated from the business without the burden of personally managing its operations. This case highlights Gabrielle’s ability to identify opportunities, devise innovative solutions, and create win-win situations for all parties involved.
