The Fit for Sale Product

Stage 3 Fit for Sale™ The Retail Doctor®'s Stages One and Two proprietory methodology Fit for Business™& Fit for Growth ™ assist in developing the business to be Investor fit™ and therefore Fit for Sale & Trade.

Fit For Sale is about starting with the end in mind by driving the maximum value for your business investment by diagnosing the current Fit for Sale capabilities of your business against desired business sale outcomes (Fit for Business & Fit for Growth maximise the preparedness for Fit for Sale).

By using proprietory diagnostic modules, and in conjunction with our Retail Doctor® partner systems, we are able to identify the respective health and fitness of our clients' business value and in turn implement the steps required to transform the fitness of the business to that of a high value attractive investor fit™ business.

For example the lower end of value (the unfit business) is identified by many characteristics which our diagnostic modules interpret including:-

An over reliance on Vendor
Inadequate financial controls and reporting
Inadequate Business planning
Weaker tier 2 employees
Business processes not codified or developed
The business is not growing
The business has high earnings volatility
The business has a questionable competitive position or advantage
The business fails to consistently generate cash

We work with clients to ensure the business is transforned from this lower value proposition where buyer/ investor risk is greater and therefore price/ value is lower to a High value Fit For Sale & trade: business which is "Fit for Sale" and realises the maximum value attainable.
