You'll learn how practices are valued and what you can do right now to maximize yours. You'll understand who's buying in today's market, from first-time owners and associates to multi-practice operators and DSOs, and what each type of buyer needs from you before and after the sale. You'll also explore the legal and operational pitfalls that derail transitions and how to avoid them.
