The difference between a successful M&A that excites your team, grows your revenue, and creates a better experience for your customers… And a failed one where you invest tons of capital and time and energy for nothing comes down to asking 3 simple questions.
Why?
Because M&As are exciting for your team. But this excitement, while healthy in doses, can become lethal if it’s unjustified.
Asking these 3 key questions not only prevents you from wasting your time, energy, and capital, but it also ensures that your leadership team is aligned and convicted in the value of the M&A. And when your leadership team is aligned and motivated because of your pragmatic and rigorous evaluation, then, well, your M&A is destined to succeed with flying colors.
In today’s show, I reveal what these 3 questions are, why your M&A success hinges on asking—and answering—them as soon as possible, and how these 3 questions weed out weak ideas before they devour your time, energy, and capital.
