How to Sell Your Pest Control Business: Expert Valuation & Profit Tips
Welcome to another value-packed episode of **Living the Wildlife** with your host, wildlife control consultant **Stephen Vantassel**! In this episode, Stephen engages in a must-hear conversation with **Bob Williamson**, a seasoned sales broker with a wealth of experience in guiding pest control and wildlife control business owners through the process of preparing their companies for sale. Whether you're planning to sell in the near future or years down the road, this episode dives deep into what every business owner needs to know to maximize their company’s value and secure a profitable exit.
Bob shares expert insights on some of the most common misconceptions owners have about selling their businesses.

You'll also learn about crucial financial metrics like **EBITDA** (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization), which provides a clear picture of a company’s earning potential, helping both buyers and sellers navigate the transaction with confidence.
Having personally bought over 40 businesses, Bob brings unparalleled expertise to the table and offers practical tips on how to best position your business for a smooth and successful sale. Whether you're nearing retirement or planning ahead, this episode is filled with actionable advice to help you boost the value of your business and ensure you’re fully prepared when it’s time to sell.
