Why Your Business Is Worth Less Than You Think (And How to Fix It)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
So here's the thing — almost every owner I talk to has a number in their head. And almost every time, it's wrong. Not because they're bad at math, but because they're measuring the wrong thing.
In this podcast I break down the 4 methods buyers, banks, and brokers actually use to value a small business: SDE multiples, EBITDA multiples, discounted cash flow, market comparables, and asset-based valuation.
More importantly, I show you the single most expensive mistake owners make — confusing SDE and EBITDA multiples — and how that one error can overvalue your business by 60% before you even sit down with a buyer.
If you're thinking about selling in the next 1–3 years, this is the stuff you need to understand before you talk to anyone.
