20/20 Money Episode #324 –  How To Increase the Multiplier In Your Practice Value with Nathan Hayes

Welcome to another Episode of 20/20 Money!

My guest on today’s show is Nathan Hayes with IDOC & Books & Benchmarks. 

Nathan and I spend time discussing a topic that was briefly brought up on our last conversation (here’s the link to that discussion) which is the importance of understanding the relationship between multiples and the risk associated with ownership. Said differently, we bring clarity to the math on why it’s less risky for a buyer of a practice to write a bigger check for a larger practice that commands a higher multiple when compared to buying a lower valued/lower multiple “fixer upper” practice. I believe this conversation is valuable both buyers and sellers of practices. 

As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that’s filled with tips and ideas to help you plan your best life, on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to ultimately help them live their best life on purpose. Lastly, if you’re interested in learning more about the 20/20 Money Membership, a platform that we created to help ODs become “brilliant at the financial basics,” please check out the link in the show notes of this episode to learn more. 

And with that introduction, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Nathan Hayes.
