Sell a Business
- Buyers must see the potential of the business
- A strong buyer pool creates a competitive market which yields the greatest probability of success
- Projects must not lose momentum
That is why we follow a specific process that begins with thorough pre-sale planning. During the pre-sale planning we focus on understanding our client motivations, goals, and objectives. Next, we focus on understanding the individual characteristics of the business. We strive to uncover areas of strength and opportunities for growth in effort to properly stage the business in our marketing materials. Many firms take a similar approach; what differs us from the competition is the speed at which we start the marketing.
The momentum created from proper preparation is essential during the third phase, buyer identification. Our goal is to uncover the greatest number of qualified, interested buyers in the shortest amount of time. The strong buyer pool creates competition and allows us to leverage the buyers against one another. This is why we do not set an asking price on our business listings. We build a marketplace and allow it to dictate the purchase price, often above what a traditional valuation would indicate. After the best buyer has been selected, we coordinate the necessary components to consummate the transaction.
