Principal at Casey Cease & Company, Consultant & Speaker, CEO at Planify Agency & Lucid Books, Podcaster @ The Casey Cease Show
In the latest episode of The Casey Cease Show, the conversation turned to an insightful discussion with Chris Seegers about the types of businesses that hold the most potential for growth and value, especially for those considering an exit. Chris highlighted his focus on Main Street businesses rather than the tech or e-commerce sectors, emphasizing cash-flowing and consistent businesses as prime targets. The discussion delved into two specific niches that are particularly appealing: blue-collar service companies involved in real estate—think HVAC, plumbing, electrical contracting, and more—and white-collar service companies, including payroll, accounting firms, insurance agencies, and financial advisory firms. These sectors represent areas where significant value can be added, even for businesses thinking about an exit a few years down the line. For anyone involved in manufacturing or looking to understand better where their business fits into the exit planning process, especially if it falls under the sub $3 million EBITDA mark, this episode offers valuable insights. Chris's expertise sheds light on the importance of identifying and nurturing value within businesses, providing a roadmap for those looking to make the most of their ventures. Whether you're directly involved in one of these sectors or curious about the broader implications of exit planning for Main Street businesses, this discussion is packed with actionable advice. For a deeper dive into how to unlock the potential of your business, make sure to listen to the full episode.

CEO & Owner of Small Business Funding | I help your small or medium-sized business grow in value so you have options
Its exciting hearing about businesses being sold for hundreds of millions of dollars. Hell even hearing about an 8-figure deal will perk most people's ears up. But the reality is, those are the outliers. There are tons of businesses being sold for far less every day. I think its important to highlight these too - they are far more common, and far more relatable for most small business owners. Which is why John Warrillow's recent Built To Sell podcast caught my ear this week, when he interviewed the owner of a small software firm who had just sold. The business was generating $250K in profit on $1M in revenue, a nice margin for a small business. They discussed a few pertinent topics for owners of small businesses: - How to handle a low-ball offer - Why/when to sell? In this case the owner felt trapped in the business and instinctually knew it was time to move on - The difficulty of scaling a business, whether that's something you really want to do Give it a listen when you have some time... https://lnkd.in/eYqm3MHR #entrepreneurship #leanstartups #smallbusiness

When starting a business, who do we turn to in the early stages to get financing? Short answer: YOU! Starting your own business is an exciting venture, and while seeking financing is a common practice, it's crucial to consider your initial investment as a business owner. Future funders will look for you to be the first investor in your business. Allocate a portion of your personal funds to cover startup materials, initial operating costs, and other essential expenses. This personal investment demonstrates your commitment and confidence in your business, which can be crucial when seeking external financing. If you decide to explore financing from external sources, ensure that the funds are directly tied to revenue-generating aspects of your business! For instance, if you're starting a laundromat, seeking a loan to purchase washers and dryers directly contributes to your operational capacity and revenue potential. This strategic approach aligns your financing needs with tangible business growth, making your business plan more compelling to lenders or investors. A well-thought-out financial strategy, coupled with a clear connection between financing and revenue generation, will strengthen your position when seeking external support for your business endeavors.
