It's a Great Time to Sell!

​

There are unprecedented numbers of qualified buyers searching for existing businesses and properly priced businesses are selling fast. However, you are starting with several disadvantages if you plan to sell on your own. Furthermore, the buyers are becoming more sophisticated and frequently hire Business Brokers or other professionals to represent them.

Let's examine your readiness to sell your business on your own:

  • How much do you know about providing credible information to value and price your business, construct and communicate your marketing profile and return on investment to potential buyers in a salable format and in a way that ensures your confidentiality?

  • Are you familiar with available alternatives for structuring deals such as seller financing, SBA loans, earn-outs, leases, royalties, and non-compete contracts?

  • If you are to determine a proper value for your business, the balance sheet and income statements must be recast. Are you aware of the methods required to reorient your financials from the tax minimization view to the discretionary cash flow approach generally used to determine market value?

  • What methods will you use to interview, assess, and qualify interested buyers without being distracted from running your business at peak operating capacity?

  • Are you adequately prepared to negotiate with sophisticated buyers and their professional representatives? Furthermore, how familiar are you with the critical due diligence process that will follow every offer?

​

These situations and many other required competencies would overwhelm most sellers, especially if you have decided that now is the right time to sell.
