Pest Geek Pest Control Podcast Worlds #1 Pest Control Training Podcast

Welcome to another insightful episode of Living the Wildlife with your host, wildlife control consultant Stephen Vantassel! In this episode, Stephen sits down with Bob Williamson, an experienced sales broker who helps pest control and wildlife control business owners prepare their companies for sale. Whether you're years away from selling or considering it soon, this conversation covers crucial aspects of the process that every business owner should know.

Bob and Stephen discuss some of the biggest misconceptions owners have when it comes to selling their business. Many rely too heavily on their accountant’s evaluation, but Bob explains how factors like revenue stability, the owner's role in daily operations, and financial adjustments all play a major part in determining the true value of a business. They also dive into key financial metrics, such as EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization), which helps buyers and sellers understand a company's earning potential.

Bob brings a wealth of experience, having bought over 40 companies himself, and shares valuable tips on how to prepare your business for a smooth and profitable sale. If you’re a business owner approaching retirement or simply planning ahead, this episode is packed with expert advice to help you increase the value of your business and secure a successful sale when the time comes.
