Description

Your Bar’s True Worth Might Surprise You

Most bar owners think their place is worth more than it really is until they see what buyers actually pay.

The truth? Your bar’s value isn’t based on how much you’ve poured into the buildout or how great your vibe is. It’s based on what someone’s willing to write a check for.

In this episode, we are going to break down exactly how bars are valued using EBITDA, revenue, and asset-based methods and what separates the ones worth two times earnings from the ones that sell for four times.

Whether you’re planning to sell or just want to grow a stronger business, this is your roadmap to building a bar that’s ready for anything, investors, buyers, or the next chapter.
