SCORE Workshop

Buy/Sell & Valuation of a Business

Add to my Calendar

 

Buy/Sell & Valuation of a Business

What’s the Business Worth? – Valuation Techniques

What’s your business worth?  You’ll learn how to develop a valuation estimate that is defensible whether you are buying, selling or starting a business.  Or is a franchise more to your liking?  You’ll learn the pros and cons of franchising as well.  All of this is in “plain English” and based on current valuation concepts.  We will take you through the process using examples of each calculation.
Jim Chamberlain of SCORE presents this workshop.  Jim has an MBA and is a CMA (Certified Management Accountant).  Jim has held financial positions with Dexter, General Dynamics and Statek Corporation, as well as an environmental start-up.  For ten years he was part owner, director, and CFO of Consolidated Reprographics, an Orange County leading reprographics company.  He also helped manage a privately held high technology company awarded as one of the top 50 fastest growing private companies in Orange County.  During his career, Jim has had extensive experience in merger and acquisition activity as both buyer and seller. He has prepared Business Plans, sold and purchased businesses and has helped entrepreneurs improve their cash flow.  Management Accounting is his specialty.  Jim has been active in various volunteer organizations, such as SCORE and United Way. He is also a past president and director of the Certified Management Accounting Society of Southern California (CMASSC).
