To have an understanding of what something is worth, you need to have an understanding of how much someone would pay to buy it. Businesses aren’t any different. To know how much your business is worth, consider how much you could sell it for. But, that begs the question: Is your business worth what you think it is? Whether you’re planning to actually sell your business or not, knowing the answer to this question is crucial. If your business has never considered this question before, some deciding factors may surprise you.
