Navigating Crucial Business Decisions in a Down Economy
In a down market, business owners tend to do one of three things: they close their doors, sit tight and ride out the storm, or capitalize on the opportunity. “One of the most important and most complex decisions that business owners have to make right now is whether to grow or retract in this economy,” said Chris Spinelli, co-founder of the appraisal company Present Value.
Some businesses may succumb to the downturn and will need to sell off assets in preparation for bankruptcy declaration. Others, still stinging from tax time, may simply be searching for ways to save on taxes next year. Still others may be considering an equipment purchase or an acquisition of a struggling business. Present Value can assist business owners in any of these three situations by conducting certified business or equipment appraisals.
“When planning their reactions to the current economy, it’s important for our clients to know the worth of their assets,” said Chris Kinzie, Present Value co-founder. The company recognizes that many of the regulations surrounding equipment appraisals and business valuations can be confusing, and Present Value seeks to provide its clients with the necessary information to help them make informed, prudent business decisions. “We want to help our clients not just make the next choice, but the best choice,” added Kinzie.
