Nick Jenkins: The serial entrepreneur and former Dragon from BBC TV's Dragons' Den knows precisely how to grow and sell companies – he sold his business Moonpig.com for over £100m. In this exclusive advice video, Nick explains how he knew it was the right time to sell, and offers tips on handling the business sale process – including keeping things confidential, how to communicate with staff, and how it feels to do a deal.
Nick believes the best time to sell a business is a combination of commercial and personal factors, when the company is still on an upward trajectory. "I felt if I stayed on any longer at the company, it would have been for a lack of imagination!"
