"Greg’s true value came to play" - Greg

I recently sold my accountancy practice with the help of Greg Tapper of Barkers Business Brokers.

Greg and I had been in contact over the past two years where he would give me the latest trends on selling a practice.

I wasn’t sure whether I was ready to sell and retire which was taken on board by Greg and at no time was any sales pitch or pressure to sell made.

He would keep in touch by the odd phone call and given his expertise and experience in selling accountancy practises was always a worthwhile chat.

As an accountant we supposedly have the skills to value a business however the market may dictate differently.

This is where Greg’s true value came to play and I’m pleased to say that the sale price achieved was far greater than the other options I had considered.

We often balk when we are presented with fees but we shouldn’t let this predetermine the outcome.

We are not marketers and sometimes we need to take a step back and let others use their expertise which Greg has in this field.

I thoroughly recommend having a chat with Greg if you are considering selling even if it is not in the immediate future.
