Overcome constraints to growth

In a global PwC survey, more than 80 per cent of respondents said that their strategy was not well understood within their business. 90 per cent said their business was missing key opportunities in the market due to a lack of understanding about their customers, confused marketing messages and a lack of clarity around what gives a business the right to win.

PwC’s Private Clients Advisory team specialises in:

The development of a coherent business strategy for privately owned businesses. Our methodology to strategic planning brings four important elements together:
- Appropriately positioning the business in the market
- Strategic financial management and forecasting based on an underlying activity driver
- Defining the key thrusts & capabilities to drive growth in the future
- Linking strategy to execution

Getting Out

Every owner exits their business at some stage. This can be through realising their investment or implementing sound succession plans. You only get one attempt at maximising the value on exit so taking the time to plan the strategy right for you is an important task, even if the timing of your exit seems a long way into the future.

Don’t waste the time you’ve spent building your business by not getting its full worth when you sell it.

A properly planned sale might take two years or more to complete, including:

Tax-efficient restructuring
Identifying the natural buyers and what will maximise the price they're willing to pay
Getting 'due diligence ready'
Planning for your financial and personal / family wellbeing post-exit.

We can also help you develop a succession plan to ensure the most favourable outcome for all family members, if this is your preferred exit strategy.
