Maximise your exit value with a story that traditional statements can’t tell.
You've built a successful business with strong digital infrastructure, a loyal online customer base, and efficient marketing systems. Your accountant has provided a valuation based on traditional multiples, but something feels wrong - those numbers don't capture the real value of what you've created.
You're probably right.
Traditional business valuations often treat digital assets as intangible afterthoughts, potentially leaving $300-500K on the table in businesses valued at $2M+.
Your optimised customer acquisition systems, valuable data assets, and sophisticated digital channels represent genuine business value - but only if you can prove it.
Modern buyers understand that digital assets drive business value. The challenge is proving exactly what those assets are worth. NetAppraise documents the digital value that justifies premium pricing
