Our Recurring Revenue Valuation is ideal for circumstances where the business as a whole needs valuation, for example, where an owner is selling their client book.
Understand the true value of your practice
While many owners understand that it’s a seller’s market, they are hamstrung by a lack of understanding of the true value of their practice. A formal valuation gives you certainty - whether you’re inviting offers for your practice, selling a share, or valuing the business for personal or legal reasons.
Present an objective, defensible valuation
Being asked to value your business can be like being asked to value your family - most would say it’s priceless! Presenting an objective, transparent and structured valuation provides a realistic starting point for negotiations and removes much of the emotion in the process.
Jenny Brown, JBS Financial Strategists
"It was great the way Tim and his team engaged with my successors to understand their goals and aspirations. The result has been a cohesive succession plan which achieved all stakeholders objective over the medium term. We are looking forward to continue in working with Tim and his team on an ongoing basis to revise this plan and keep us on target."
David Brown, Stanford Brown
"Tim has assisted us recently us with a valuation of our practice. It was valuable to us for someone independent to perform a valuation. The process was transparent, inclusive and performed reasonably promptly. In his independent role he was able to raise important issues which internally are often difficult to do.
Tim met with the Board to fully consider all issues and explain his valuation methodology and report to all of the stakeholders. Tim has always been available to discuss other related issues which have arisen since and provide opinion and valuable feedback."
Adam Hinze, Harness Financial Services
"Tim and the Centurion team provide us with an annual valuation update of our practice. As part of this process Tim provides the whole team with feedback on where we are at and the challenges for our business.
We highly value this annual discussion and it keeps us thinking about the future of our business."

FAQ
Q. Should I be opting for Profit valuation rather than a Recurring Revenue valuation?
This Valuation Program uses a Recurring Revenue valuation methodology. Of the two valuation options, it's better suited to a whole of business valuation where annual revenue is under $2M. An EBIT or profit valuation is better suited where annual turnover exceeds $2M and a partial interest in the business is to be sold (eg shares) or where the valuation is in support a legal dispute. These scenarios have more complex considerations. If you're at all unsure, please email us.
Q. What does the Expert Valuation Assessment involve?
From our experience negotiating over half a billion in sale transactions, we have an intimate and current understanding of the market forces affecting the economics of practice valuations.
Q. What does the Strategy Session involve?
If you purchase Option 2, one of our advisers will meet with you via videoconference to develop a roadmap for your planned sale or succession, capitalising on the strengths of your practice, as determined in your valuation.
Q. What if I buy the program and it's not right for me?
We have a 30 day money back guarantee, so you just need to contact us within 30 days of buying the program and we’ll refund your investment.
