Deciding to sell your family business can be one of the hardest and most emotional decisions an owner will ever face.
In this episode of Family Business Breakthroughs, host Jim Berner sits down with Ken Koger, Partner at Meridian Associates, to pull back the curtain on what really happens during the sale process.
With over 30 years serving multi-generational companies, Meridian has guided countless families through business valuations, transitions, and mergers with confidentiality, care, and clarity.
Jim and Ken unpack the real-world signs it may be time to sell, from burnout and shifting markets, to lack of succession plans, and share practical ways to increase your company’s value before you sell.
You’ll learn how to:
- Spot early indicators it’s time to consider an exit
- Avoid “expense creep” and strengthen profitability
- Reduce risk from customer concentration
- Navigate the emotional ups and downs of selling
- Protect confidentiality while preparing your team and family
Whether you’re thinking about succession, curious about mergers and acquisitions, or simply want to understand how to maximize business value, this conversation offers insight only decades of hands-on experience can provide.
