IS THIS YOU?
80% of SMEs Don’t Know How to Exit
Their Business
-
Business relies too heavily on you (the owner)
Buyers worry when a founder is indispensable. A company that can’t run without its owner is difficult to sell at a good price.
-
Financial records are unclear
Disorganized financial statements make it hard for buyers to gauge performance and trust your numbers. In fact, clean, accurate financials are a basic requirement to value a business properly.
-
No growth story or differentiation.
If you’ve been using the same old business model and competing only on price, your company may appear stagnant or commoditized. Buyers pay a premium for businesses with unique value propositions or recurring revenue streams – a robust business model is worth far more than a one-off sales model.
-
Overlooked operational risks
You want a business that’s easy to take over: strong systems, diversified customer base, and no hidden liabilities. Having this will make your business easier to buy and harder for a buyer to walk away from.
-
Hidden Value / Undervalued Intangible Assets
You’ve spent years building proprietary models, customer insights, trade secrets, and valuable datasets—yet they’re often unrecognised in a sale. Most owners don’t package or leverage these intangible assets to maximise value.
-
Unrealistic exit plan (or none at all)
Lack of planning often leads owners to sell for much less than their business is worth – or not sell at all. Proper exit planning can maximize the value and increase the success rate of exit.

Our Approach :
Step-by-Step to an Optimal Exit
We follow a structured, end-to-end process to prepare your company for sale. Our approach is holistic – covering strategic, financial, operational, and human factors – yet tailored to your specific business. Below is a summary of how we work with you
01.Business Diagnostic & Exit Assessment
- We begin with a detailed review of your business, including financial health, organisational structure, customer base, products or services, market position, and potential risks that may affect a sale. We also clarify your personal and business exit goals to assess your current readiness and the exit options that may suit your situation.
02.Market Research & Positioning Strategy
- We assess your industry trends, competitor landscape, customer dynamics, and market benchmarks to understand how your company compares. We then refine your value proposition, positioning, and growth story so it is clearer and more compelling from a buyer or investor perspective.
03.Business Enhancement & Preparation:
- We help strengthen the areas buyers assess most closely, including business model sustainability, recurring or higher-margin revenue opportunities, financial clarity, cash flow, documented processes, management capability, corporate structure, compliance, intellectual property, and business risks.
04.Buyer Preparation & Negotiation Support
- When you are ready to progress, we support the preparation of buyer-facing materials and advise on suitable buyer or investor profiles. This may include data-room preparation, valuation support, deal-structure considerations, and guidance during negotiations on terms such as price, earn-outs, warranties, non-compete obligations, and transition arrangements.

Atelier Tang
Business Strategy Development
We helped Atelier Tang with market research and customer segmentation to further define their strategic plans for business growth and expansion. Furthermore, we guided them with the development of short and long-term strategies, along with a Business Continuity Plan. Processes were also set up to monitor if the targets set for key processes and activities are met.
Customer Strategy
To boost customer experience, we assisted to identify their customer touchpoints and set up respective KPIs for each of them. In addition, we enhanced the flow of their customer complaint and feedback process after identifying existing issues. With our help, they are now more confident in the quality of service provided to clients.
Process Management
Another area we looked into was the reorganisation of their system for business operations. This led to higher accountability and transparency in the tasks handled by employees and also ensured that they will abide by the regulations.
- The duration to finalise a project after handover shortened to 1 month, instead of taking up 2 – 3 months.

When the Covid-19 pandemic landed on Singapore’s shores, and subsequently led to a Circuit Breaker, many businesses were badly hit. The management of Atelier Tang was worried and unsure of how to improve the company and minimise the pandemic’s impact on their business.

Common Misconceptions
It’s a myth that you only need help at the moment of sale. A broker’s job is typically to find buyers and facilitate the transaction, not to fix your business’s issues or increase its value. Without advance preparation, you might end up in the 70–80% of businesses that never find a buyer or selling at a lower valuation.
This is a common perception. Now, with government support like the EDG grant, the cost to you is significantly subsidized. More importantly, think of consulting as an investment, not an expense: the returns can be many multiples of the fee, in the form of a higher selling price and a faster, smoother deal. In fact, small businesses often need this help the most, because unlike large corporations, you may not have in-house specialists for strategy, finance, or M&A. We’ve designed our services specifically to be accessible and valuable to SMEs. Everything is right-sized to your scale – we won’t burden you with corporate jargon or unnecessary processes.
From the start, we will assess and only take on projects where we truly believe we can add value and see a path to a successful exit. We establish clear milestones and performance indicators (e.g. revenue or margin improvements, risk reductions) during the engagement, so you’ll see progress along the way. And remember, even if market conditions delay your sale, the improvements we implement are strengthening your business regardless – you’ll be more profitable, efficient, and resilient, which is never a wasted effort. Our past clients have not only achieved exits but also state that their companies were more profitable and better run after the consultancy.
Majority of local SMEs will receive up to 50% funding through EDG.
