When it comes to liquor store ownership, the journey doesn't end at operation; it culminates in a strategic exit that maximizes your investment and secures your legacy. Our specialized exit planning and strategy services for liquor store owners are designed to navigate this complex process, ensuring you leave on a high note.
Exit planning and strategy involves creating a roadmap for business owners to successfully exit their businesses. This comprehensive process encompasses valuation, market analysis, timing, and succession planning, ensuring that when you decide to sell your liquor store, you do so with the best possible outcome.
1. Maximize Value: An exit plan ensures you receive the maximum value for your liquor store, allowing you to benefit from your years of hard work. Planning can also minimize tax implications when selling.
2. Smooth Transition: Proper planning facilitates a smoother transition for you, the buyer, and the community your store serves. Having a clear exit plan allows you to prepare the necessary steps in advance rather than waiting until selling becomes urgent due to health issues or something else, leaving money on the table. A smooth transition will ensure a win-win for all stakeholders, significantly reducing stress for sellers.
3. Strategic Timing: Timing can significantly affect the sale price. An exit strategy helps you sell at the optimum moment. Due to highs and lows in the marketplace impacted by the economy, interest rates, liquor law changes or other issues impacting the liquor industry, timing can be an issue when selling. If enough care and attention are applied ahead of time, owners can sell when the value of the business can command its highest valuation that buyers will gladly pay.
4. Preparedness: Life is unpredictable. An exit plan prepares you for any unforeseen circumstances requiring a quick sale. Too many times owners come to us with an urgent need to sell their business ASAP which can reduce the final valuation a buyer is willing to pay. Being prepared in advance and knowing what’s next allows the seller to be successful in any transaction.

Throughout the process Dan was thoughtful, respectful, and a great sounding board. He help negotiate a great deal and had a buyer for our chain of Three stores very quickly. At the end of the process there is no doubt in my mind why he put the word “advisor” in his businesses name.
After owning my retail wine shop for 30 years, I was ready to retire but apprehensive about the daunting task of selling it. Within days of contacting Dan, he represented my business to prospective buyers and brought me 2 great offers.
Dan is very calming and can get you from point A to point B - he knows how to deal with both sides and can get a deal across the finish line. At First I was hesitant about fees however, in the end, I wanted to give the team a bonus because of their great work!
