Selling a business is a difficult undertaking. Even in the best markets it is estimated that up to 80% of businesses that are listed for sale, don’t ultimately sell. Whether your business will sell (and sell at a price you want) is dependent on many factors. But what I can tell you with absolute certainty, is that the more time you spend planning and getting your business ready for sale, the more successful you will be.
Beyond the marketing and negotiating services a business broker provides, one of the most valuable elements to what we do is that we allow you to keep your focus on your business. Because businesses typically sell for a multiple of earnings, any mistakes you make leading up to a sale are instantly magnified as they relate to a sales price. It’s critical that you don’t let the job of selling your business interfere with your job of maximizing its profitability.
