The Biggest Decision you'll make............

The very idea of selling the business that you have worked so hard to build maybe a relatively new one, or, as in my case it was something that was always at the end of a five year plan.

"My name is Graham Pope Founder and CEO of Valorem Limited and I've sat where you sit".

I started a Healthcare company from nothing with a basic 5 year plan.  To build a successful care business, run it, grow it and then sell it.  But not just sell it to the highest bidder, but to sell it to a company that would look after it and the people who had helped make it such a success.

The building of the company was great, it was fun, it was exciting.  Seeing the revenues and profits grow year on year, employing talented people into the business and nurturing that talent and seeing those individuals develop was extremely rewarding and something I took enormous satisfaction from.  But how would I go about selling it?  I didn't have a clue.  There were so many questions.  What is it worth?, how do I find a broker that understands my aims?, how can I trust that company to find me the right buyer, the right price and the right deal structure?  I had to take a leap of faith.  The process, although ultimately successful, left me with a feeling that things could be done a lot better, with more understanding, more care, more trust and more effort by the people that literally had the rest of my life in their hands.

This is the reason that Valorem has been established.  To help business owners sell their companies or secure investment using a specialist brokerage that really understands what they are going through and that they can trust to achieve their aims.

Having worked in either Healthcare or Recruitment for over 30 years both in the UK and overseas, I found that I was uniquely placed to set up Valorem as a specialist brokerage for these markets.  Utilising the relationships we have with Investment Boards, Merger & Acquisitions teams, Private Equity Companies and wealthy private individuals we will undoubtedly get you the outcome you desire, but we will also get there in a way that is easy to comprehend, that understands what you are going through and that you can trust.
