It’s Sooner Than You Think.](https://nextpointllc.com/resources/the-right-time-to-sell-your-business-its-sooner-than-you-think/): It’s the question we hear all the time:
 ## Services - [ESOP Acquisitions](https://nextpointllc.com/services/esop-acquisitions/): For an ESOP, the right acquisition is like finding the puzzle piece that completes your bigger picture. For a business owner, selling your company to an ESOP should feel like being that puzzle piece put into place – a perfect fit that makes complete sense. - [Management Buyout](https://nextpointllc.com/services/management-buyout/): That’s the heart of a management buyout — giving owners a trusted exit and management teams a clear path to ownership. - [Sell-Side M&A Advisory](https://nextpointllc.com/services/sell-side-ma-advisory/): Selling your business is one of the most important – and most overlooked – parts of any business journey. For many owners, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event that comes with high stakes, high emotions, and 0 margin for error. Between valuation questions, legacy concerns, and the complexity of the M&A process, divesting can feel like trying to drive a car too fast around a tight mountain curve in low-visibility conditions – it’s off the road before you know it! - [Acquisition Services](https://nextpointllc.com/services/acquisition-services/): When it’s the right fit, acquiring another business can be one of the smartest ways to grow, but the process of bringing another company under your umbrella is more complex than most people think. ## Success Stories - [Milling](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/milling/): Our client is a milling operation primarily servicing OEM manufacturers with precision parts. The company invested in automated equipment over the last 5 years. It purchased a turning center capable of single-setup production. Automated systems require a skilled person to perform the setup. The Company’s mix of work ruled out any machine running all the way through an unattended shift. - [Industrial Distributor (22M)](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/industrial-distributor-22m/): Our client was competing with national competitors in a price sensitive industry. The owner borrowed money for working capital that he ultimately used to fund the losses of the business. He began to lose key employees. - [Finding the Right Buyer](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/finding-the-right-buyer/): Our client owned multiple businesses and had not paid full attention to the needs of some of the smaller entities. He eventually realized that investments were needed to upgrade his equipment and website in order to keep one of his smaller holdings competitive. Our client also determined that the real estate space that the company used would be more valuable to him for his other business pursuits. - [Decision Fatigue](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/decision-fatigue/): Our client, in the machining industry, was constantly berated with daily problems requiring his immediate attention, to the point that he dreaded going into the office. Every single day he was faced with decisions regarding labor issues, vendor issues, equipment issues and more, to the point where it seemed to him as though the world were crashing down around him. - [Coping With Business Contraction](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/coping-with-business-contraction/): Our client is a healthy and profitable metal fabrication company. Earlier this year, our client had growth initiatives, including leasing new production equipment, hiring additional skilled labor, and initiating software upgrades when a sudden change occurred. The Governor’s Pause order, a result of the COVID-19 virus, creates an unusual time of economic uncertainty and business interruption. - [Fast Growth Created Production Constraints](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/fast-growth-created-production-constraints/): The owner of a contract manufacturing metal fabrication company experienced significant growth with some of his large customers. While the backlog was increasing; delivery dates were being extended, and he had a difficult time recruiting skilled employees at any price. The operating demands required new investment in equipment and additional production space. The company’s largest customer was growing and required a vendor with the capability to support their production needs. - [Smarter Debt With Instant Cash Flow](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/smarter-debt-with-instant-cash-flow/): The owner of a sheet metal fabrication company experienced significant growth with some of his large customers. He knew that he needed to invest in two new lasers to keep up with the growing demand on that equipment. The new equipment would require space, and the employees would need training, yet his facility and labor force was already approaching capacity. The new investment would also create a new line of debt, and while the debt itself was not appealing to the owner, he realized that purchasing the equipment alone would not solve his problems. - [Real Estate Value Greater Than Enterprise Value](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/real-estate-value-greater-than-enterprise-value/): Through an appraisal, our client learned that his business’ real estate was very valuable. He asked Next Point to complete a value estimate of his company’s enterprise value if it were to be sold as a going concern. - [Small Machine Shop](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/small-machine-shop/): The logical buyer would be a strategic industry player with the ability to leverage the company’s attributes to improve overall financial performance. Strategic Buyers are often looking to break into new markets and industries. It is often easier to buy a customer list than to develop customers organically in new sectors such as aerospace and medical. Strategic buyers may have already made investments in new equipment and technology; their strategy might be to buy a book of business to add customers with known sales and gross margins to help support their debt service. - [Diversified Printer](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/diversified-printer/): A printing company with three distinct segments increased their overall value by selling each division separately to different buyers, achieving a larger combined sum. - [Thermoplastic Injection Molding](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/thermoplastic-injection-molding/): We negotiated a quick and successful sale of a thriving injection molding company, ensuring they sold at the ideal time for a premium price. - [Hardwood & Plywood Distributor](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/hardwood-plywood-distributor/): The owners of two different established companies in the hardwood distribution market approached Next Point to help them structure a joint venture agreement. The two companies were eager to merge into a unified operation to help solidify their space in the market in the face of national competition, moving into the area. Next Point completed a valuation of both companies and negotiated a buy-out of the smaller organization by the larger. - [Building Product Manufacturer](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/building-product-manufacturer/): Selling a peripheral division to a strategic buyer allowed profitable reinvestment, enabling the owner to refocus on the company’s core business. - [Printing Company](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/printing-company/): Restructured debt and enhanced service capabilities revitalized a struggling printing company, turning around declining revenue and mounting debt. - [Janitorial Products Distributor](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/janitorial-products-distributor/): Facing financial turmoil jeopardizing retirement and credit, the sale of the company to the industry’s largest competitor safeguarded the client’s personal net worth. - [Economic Buyer](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/economic-buyer/): Strategic investment guidance enabled our client to achieve his dream of business ownership, identifying opportunities and facilitating a successful deal. - [Footwear Manufacturer & Distributor](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/footwear-manufacturer-distributor/): We preserved a century-old shoe company, safeguarding hundreds of jobs and ensuring its continued operation. - [Steel and Tool Steel Distributor](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/steel-and-tool-steel/): We facilitated the sale of a second-generation company, enabling two brothers to retire and reap the rewards of their hard work. - [Professional Firm](https://nextpointllc.com/success-story/professional-firm/): We facilitated the resolution of strategic paralysis for a business, clearing the path for new opportunities and growth.
