The Deal Diary: A tale of woe

In a break from our regular schedule of insights into how to sell or acquire a firm the right way, we’ve pulled together a cautionary tale about how it can, and all too often does, go wrong. The characters in this story are fictitious, but the underlying message is not. Having worked on several hundred transactions, I’ve seen first-hand, how events can unfold in a similar way.

Whether you are just starting the process, or actively engaged in the whirlwind that is selling or acquiring a firm, you should find something in here you can relate to. Over the coming weeks, we will be sending useful hints and tips, direct to the inbox of everyone that downloads the Deal Diary.
