MOST BUSINESS OWNERS BUILD A COMPANY — BUT VERY FEW BUILD ONE THAT SOMEONE ELSE WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO BUY.
A business may generate income, but that does not automatically make it valuable. If it depends too much on the owner, lacks transferability, or cannot run with confidence and consistency, it may never become the asset the owner hoped to build.
Buyable is a practical guide for business owners who want to change that.
Steve Preda shows how to build a company that is stronger, more self-managing, more scalable, and more attractive to future buyers or investors. Whether your goal is a future sale, a smoother succession, or simply greater freedom as an owner, the path is the same: reduce owner dependence, improve the business from the inside out, and create a company that can thrive as a true asset.
Inside Buyable, you’ll learn how to:
- Clarify the life you want and shape the business to support it
- Apply the seven management concepts behind a healthier, more profitable company
- Increase business value through stronger systems, cleaner execution, and better leadership
- Build a company that can grow with less owner dependence
- Prepare for investor interest, transition, or an eventual sale
- Create a business that gives you more freedom, more options, and more long-term value
Unlike books that focus only on the exit event, Buyable focuses on the business changes that make an exit possible: stronger systems, greater transferability, less owner dependence, and higher value.
If you want to build a company that can grow, perform, and become truly sellable, Buyable gives you a clear path forward.
Praise for Buyable:
Buyable is a holistic framework for creating a self-managing business and shaping it with the ideal buyer or investor in mind. I highly recommend it!
Gino Wickman, author of Traction and Entrepreneurial Leap
Steve has done a remarkable job capturing the key elements that make a business successful - and sellable - in a readable and actionable format. I wish more business owners would read this before they come to me to sell!
Michael Metzger, Business Broker, Murphy Business
I wish I had this book 24 years ago when I started my business because it would have changed the way I looked at things. The author has done a tremendous job of articulating the value in creating a "Buyable Business." Highly recommended for all business owners.
Mike Capuzzi, Author, Marketer, Blogger
"This is a must read for every entrepreneur and business owner. I expect this book to stand the test of time and become a business classic sitting beside some of the other great guides from Gino Wickman, Geoffrey Moore, and Guy Kawasaki."
Matthew Laherty, CEO of Platformatics
"In depth understanding of how to take a company, optimize performance, create systems, and then have it ready to be sold as an asset."
Vikram Raya, Co-Founder and Owner, Viking Capital
"Preda sets out, in succinct and accessible prose what it takes to make a business buyable. As a veteran of multiple business exits, I can say with confidence this is an invaluable read."
Ian Leaman, International Board Director and M&A Expert
