What to Do After Selling a Business

After a business sale comes a once-in-a-lifetime liquidity event. A framing guide for advisors on helping a client think through the proceeds.

Cabinetry is a fabrication-equipment trade — a buyer normalizes a replacement bill of roughly 2–5% of revenue for CNC routers, panel saws, edgebanders and the finishing line. Without a per-machine schedule they pick the worst case and subtract it. A one-page equipment list — make, model, year, hours, next planned replacement — is one of the cheapest turns of multiple an owner can buy.

What a buyer really pays for a custom-cabinet and millwork shop — the EBITDA multiple range, why bidding in your head and a few builders quietly cost a turn.

In HVAC the recurring-revenue benchmark a buyer prices against is around 30% of revenue. On a $500K-EBITDA shop with under 10% contracted maintenance, closing that gap toward the bar is worth roughly $150K–$250K of enterprise value — on revenue the owner is largely already earning, just not capturing as a renewable agreement. The lever is in the file, not in a new sales motion.

An advisor's guide to what buyers count as recurring revenue — contracted and scheduled — versus the repeat work that gets discounted at diligence.

Owners of fire-protection shops where the NICET certifications live in one person — usually them — think of it as experience. A buyer reads it as a capacity ceiling and a key-person haircut at the same time. And state fire-protection licensing doesn't always transfer with the sale: no qualifying-agent plan on the shelf is a mid-diligence re-trade waiting to happen.

What a buyer pays for a fire-protection company — the EBITDA multiple band, why recurring ITM is worth more than install, and levers that lift it.
