The Hard Realities and How-to’s of Successful Value Growth and Selling in 2023

Program produced by XPX Atlanta.

Our programming for this year will be a Collaborative Forum on the Hard Realities and How-To’s of successful business building and selling in 2023. Breaking News: Interest rates are still up. The economy is trending down. Buyers are retrenched. Deal flow in some industries is slow. If a deal is not in the pipeline now, it’s probably not going to close in 2023.

Of course, to our XPX community, this harsh news is not news at all. In fact, here’s the real news…It’s Time to Seize the Opportunity! More urgent than ever, right now is the time to get your clients’ attention to optimize now! We will be sharing the How-To’s of having the conversation with, and questions you need to be asking of, your clients.

Our January Program

We kick off our 2023 theme on the Hard Realities of Preparing to Sell a Business. What’s going on out there in the M&A world? What do buyers want? What are they thinking? So that your clients can turn crisis into opportunity.

We are going to set the stage for addressing the components of success, the How-To’s:

  • How to help your client’s business to stand out
