Samenvatting:

This work informs the reader how to transform an emerging veterinary practice into an established business. This title is part of a series of veterinary practice books all by the same author.

Practitioner and national consultant Thomas Catanzaro knows that planning for the future today takes the fear out of meeting it tomorrow. In the same practical, easy-to-understand approach of this Building the Successful Veterinary Practice series, Catanzaro guides readers through the process of succession planning. From developing a better leadership structure to understanding the fiscal and legal aspects of a sale transaction, Catanzaro teaches the practice owner how to exit the practice at the time of his or her choosing and to maximize the after-tax profits from the sale. Some of the topics the author explores:

• Understanding the forces of change
• Calculating the practice's value
• Assessing risks and demographic demands
• Compensating team members
• Preparing for the sale
• Creating a market
• Choosing a transaction structure
• Selecting a legal structure
• Negotiating transaction contracts
• Entering into a solo group practice or practice affiliation
• Planning for an associate buy-in
• Easing the transition of ownership and practice leadership

A follow-up to the successful and sensible Building the Successful Veterinary Practice series, this new volume provides the business know-how needed to make today's emerging practices tomorrow's established practices.

Author and consultant Thomas Catanzaro reveals his secret to building a business for the future: a strong succession plan. This book will help readers incorporate a defined leadership structure; address the internal and external legal issues of a practice; and understand the economic factors of owning and selling a practice.
