Bring Pleasure not Pain to your IFA Exit

June 27, 2019


Since the beginning of time we have known that nature has placed us under two masters

Pleasure and Pain

The Pleasure Pain principle is a concept which states we are born into the world seeking gratification by finding pleasure and avoiding pain

Pain and its consequences are more immediate than that of Pleasure and a simple misstep can forever be etched into your memory

For example

Have you ever stubbed your toe against a really hard surface

It hurts

And we do everything we can to avoid that kind of pain again

This Pleasure Pain concept will be what guides you in your quest for the perfect exit strategy

And you don’t want it to be a painful experience do you

Most IFA Business owners will only look to retire once and therefore you must get it right the first time to avoid painful scenarios such as 

Unviable acquirers

Who offer unfair multiples

And have a lacklustre approach to your clients

Without smashing yourself into those painful scenarios

A staggering 82% of sellers surveyed have said they struggled in helping the sale of their IFA business along because

They lacked the fundamental knowledge on how to make their IFA Business the preferred option to potential acquirers

Learn how to motivate potential acquirers into believing that acquiring your business will bring them pleasure

And not acquiring your business will bring them pain

Avoiding it always wins

Best Wishes
