Importance of contract drafting for your business

A well-written contract is the heart of any successful business and serves as the foundation of any transaction done by businesses. A contract is a legal proof of any transaction, agreement or trade done between two businesses. But more often than not, contract drafting is undermined by businesses and this leads to major complications in future.


Business cannot only rely on shake hands and vocal commitments, there has to be a written, law abiding proof of the agreement.  A contract lays the foundation for anything you or your business might do, and protect your actions by law.


Various types of contracts:


Sales of service/ Goods Contract


Terms and condition of use


Lease contract


Agency agreements


Distribution and Franchise Agreements


Partnership agreement


Intellectual property contract


Employment contract


And many more, any time you or your business interact with another business or individual- there is a contract for it. This explains the dire importance a well-drafted contract.


Here are our few tips to consider before contract drafting.


1.      Never do anything without a contract or an Agreement:   Businesses don’t run on trust. So trusting your partner over a shaking hand or over a verbal agreement can lead to disastrous results in future.  However old you relations might be, it is always worth taking an effort to draft a legal contract- so you are protected in case things go wrong.


2.      Seek expert help if necessary: Drafting a contract is an art, as well drafted – well-organized contract can help you negotiate over important trade aspects. It also makes sense to add a non-compete or other similar clauses to protect and secure your business. Contracts also allow you to discuss future of your partnership and what should happen if someone violates the contract.


3.      Take your time to read through the entire contract: It is always a good idea to read the whole contract before you sign it. As once you sign the contract, you cannot break free from it without legal consequences. That is why it is recommended that you read the entirety of contract, word by word and then sign.


4.      Perfect your language: While drafting a contract you need to be very precise and accurate about your goals and describe them in plain, simple to understand English. Each sentence should be less than 25 words and must be easy to understand. Avoid long, confusing and complex sentences. Remove redundancies and only talk about essential points. Avoid passive voice and minimise the use of prepositions. Avoid non-professional language. Draft the contract as if an 8th-grade student was going to read it. Keep the writing simple, clean and precise. Avoid jargon and confusions.


5.      Organise your Contract: When writing a contract, think of you creating a book and each clause you add represents a chapter in that book. Organise those clauses in such a way that your contract flows smoothly and talks about each point only once. Make sure you define terms used in the beginning of every section and feel free to reference to it later in the contract when required.


Choose your words very carefully, as a small mistake might cost millions in future.

3 simple methods for business valuation

Whether you're planning to sell your business or take a loan, or to attract new potential finances and investors, and up to date business valuation is a must have. Simply just knowing the value of your business can help you proper manage your business and evaluate your position.


Here are three simple ways to determine your business' true value.


1.      Focusing on Assets of a business:  This is by far the simplest valuation method, simply add up all your investments and subtract all the liabilities. You can also do your business valuation on basis of liquidation asset-based approach. In the liquidation asset-based approach you simply have to determine net cash received if all your assets were to be sold.


This is one of the best ways to evaluate the present gross value of a company or a business. Especially useful when you are trying to sell your business or get a business loan.


2.      Focusing on Market Values:  This approach focuses on determining the value of a business by comparing it with similar businesses in the market which were either evaluated or sold recently. This method works for most small and medium-size businesses as there are hundreds of other businesses to compare to. But if your business doesn't have comparable businesses in the market, then determining the true value of your business by this method can be difficult.


Also for an individual, using this method can be a cumbersome task. Focusing only on current market values may under-estimate your business value. Especially if you are just starting out or planning to expand in near future. This method is best used by professional evaluators.


3.      Focusing on Future Earning Values:  This approach is by far the most popular method for business valuation. This method revolves around the idea that true value of any business is determined by its capacity to generate wealth in near future. This method is very popular among investors and shareholders as they always value future returns on their investments.


Using companies past earnings and current growth rate, you can easily determine future revenues of a company. Normalise the assumption for unusual expense or revenue and add in the risk factor to get a complete learning value based business valuation.


The best choice: Apart from these methods, there are number of other methods to evaluate your business. But the best way to find the true value of your business is through a combination of all three. Combining two or more methods together will give you the best selling price. These business valuation methods will also plan, strategize and expand your business as well as attract more shareholders and investors.


Never do your business evaluation by yourself, it is like asking a mother to describe her child. Of course, you are going to over evaluate or under evaluate your business. That is why we recommend valuation for business must be done by a professional. We at pnjlegal.com offer a complete business valuation services.
