Any business, no matter what size or how old it is, should always be ready for sale. If your business is 'sale ready' you're on the right track for making your business even more successful. Take a cold, clinical and hard look at your business and ask, are we doing the best that we can? If not, what could we do better. Why would someone want to buy us? Why would someone NOT want to buy us? Waterford accountants FitzGerald Power brought brand experts Totem into their business to give it a 'once over' - and lessons were learnt. Colin Byrne, Creative Director with Totem and Stuart FitzGerald, managing partner at FitzGerald Power share their insights about the process and why and how any business would benefit from doing the same.Their 'hires in a heartbeat'. Colin wants business coach Marty Neumeier and Stuart opted for another business coach, his choice was Jim Collins.Mary Walsh is co-founder with husband Shay of what is now Ireland's largest pallet maker. Former banker Mary joined TeamGBS to share her passion for pallets. She even admits on air that she 'LOVES pallets'. So that's a first! Every business has its little quirks and we learn that to make pallets you have to heat them to 56 degrees Centigrade to ensure the death of the dreadful bark beetle. Mary's business was transformed when she entered the 'Going for Growth' programme, run by Paula FitzSimons and she encourages anyone who can, to get involved in that programme. Mary is also volunteer lead entrepreneur on the wonderful Acorns programme that encourages women in rural Ireland to get involved in business and Mary also shares her passion for that.Her 'hire in a heartbeat'? Ryanair's Michael O'Leary - a popular choice amongst TeamGBS members, but he'd have to start at the bottom.Pamela Laird of Moxi Loves and Tammy Darcy of The Shona Project joined TeamGBS to encourage women entrepreneurs to get involved in the Visa (Card) 'She's Next' programme that will give five women led businesses €10,000 in cash each, plus mentoring that last year's winner Tammy, said was absolutely invaluable - opening doors right around the world. The Shona Project is fantastically successful in getting young women to be more confident and the social enterprise is now reaching around the world. Pamela's 'hire in a heartbeat' is Kim Kardashian (but of course!) whilst Tammy wants three hires, Gillian Maxwell, Orlaith Carmody and Michelle Obama (sure, why not?)All tips and insights are brought to you thanks to De Facto Shaving Oil - the world's best shaving oil.
