How easily could someone else run your business?
Do you have key relationships that make your business run that could be easily transferred to the buyer?
What exactly is the business?

I'm not trying to steal ideas, I have an MBA and we used to do tons of valuation shit and this is the kind of stuff we need to know.

Sales volatility also comes into play. Got steady smooth sales and you're going to improve your valuation. Don't know what you're going to make from month to month, then its going to be worth less (not worthless ) .

It's all math based on common sense shit like this.
Good post, man!

Welcome to the board, and
