Are accounting & bookkeeping biz sausage factories? Whether you're eyeing an acquisition, weighing up a merger, or quietly polishing your practice for sale, this one's worth the listen. Amy and Will are pulling up the handbrake on the "just buy a book of fees and ride off into the sunset" fantasy that LinkedIn keeps selling you.
In this ep they're tackling the tricky question: why are you actually doing this? Buy-in, partner exit, ego trip, fear of missing out, or that classic "I don't want to leave opportunity on the table" itch? The motive matters, because the wrong one turns a turning point into a horror story faster than you can say "unsigned shareholders' agreement".
They discuss the stuff you need to know including business divorces, missing position descriptions, dodgy client lists, mismatched tech stacks, and the bit most buyers underestimate: actually transferring clients properly. Skip these and your dream deal becomes a lawyer's picnic with you holding the basket.
So, strap yourselves in for this tech accounting ride and remember to share it with a mate and drop us a review because we love that stuff.
