Curious About the Value of Your Business?

Our Process

When choosing Wiley Financial for your business valuations or appraisals, you know exactly what you are getting. By following along with the steps below you will know what is expected at each stage of the process.

1

Consultation

Free 30 minute phone consultation to discuss the needs of the client and why they are seeking a valuation or appraisal. I will discuss at that time, the process with the client and answer any questions they may have.  If we plan to move forward we will agree on a retainer amount and begin.

2

Engagement

Once the client has decided to work with us.  I will write up an engagement letter and NDA for the client to review and sign.  Once I have received the engagement letter and retainer, I will send out the welcome package specific to the clients’ needs.  This will be more in depth than the one on the website.

3

Financials

During this time, I will assist the client to fill out the questionnaire and guide them through the exact financials I will need particular to their project.  At this time, based on the information I receive, I will make final determination of final payment and will have a phone call to discuss and agree. 

4

Reporting

Once I have received the information that I need to begin. I will follow up with the client to assure them I have all information to begin.  I will give them an expected date to receive the first draft of the report.  This process takes typically 7-10 business days to prepare the report.

5

First Draft

Once the first draft is complete. I will email that to the client and set up a time to meet either on zoom or phone to review the report and make any finalizations to the language of the report and discuss how I came to my conclusions. Once we agree on the draft and possible changes, I will finalize the report for distribution.

6

Final Report

It typically takes 2 to 3 business days for me to finalize the report and put into proper pdf presentation.  Once I receive the final payment for services, I will distribute the final report to the required parties. 

7

Support

The client has my support for one year to help them in their next steps. Whether that may be talking with the banks, lawyers, partners or any other third parties involved that need further explanation or clarification of the report produced.
