Over the past four years, state and local taxes have become a key component of all due diligence reviews, especially in software and services industries. Sellers have realized that lack of controls and compliance in areas such as sales and income tax have resulted in significant escrow hold backs during the sale process.

That’s why Consero is partnering with Source Advisors, a premier specialized tax consulting firm, for this on-demand webinar that aims to help sellers prepare for a future sale as well as help minimize historical liabilities. We will also explain how companies currently in the sale process can work with buyers to minimize escrow amounts.

Whether you are preparing for a future sale or are currently engaged in the process, this webinar is essential for unlocking the full potential of your transaction.
