Most advisors wait for an "event" to occur before telling their clients to get an appraisal. This is a huge mistake. Fact: most owners have NO CLUE what their companies are worth. So they have no idea how big their retirement nest-eggs are. Or whether they have estate tax issues. Or whether they have enough insurance. Or even how much to ask for if somebody offers to buy the business.

You are your clients' only hope. If you fail to disturb them about the catastrophic risks of misvaluation, nobody else will. The problem will fester uncorrected until it is too late to fix. So urge your clients who own businesses to get a valuation today ! You will be doing your clients a favor - while creating tremendous opportunities for you to market your services too.
