Five Reasons You Need A Business Broker
December 2017
Dave DeCamella
When small business owners start their companies, they seldom think of exit strategy. Some do – for example, the serial entrepreneurs who could never envision themselves tied to one venture – but most do not. Whether you are looking to retire, need the liquidity, or simply got bored, a business broker is the right person to turn to when you are considering a business sale. Here are the top five reasons you need a business broker:
1. Advice
Business brokers are a wonderful resource to help you determine if and when selling is right for you. A business broker will know the right questions to ask you and what information you will need, including any financial records or reports. They will be able to determine, based on your industry and the market, if selling is a good decision. A business broker can also give you an overview of the selling process.
2. Privacy
Worried about a potential sale affecting business? Staff turnover? No worries; business brokers have the tools necessary to keep your business sale quiet. Listings are kept generic and a great level of focus is placed in ensuring that your business revenues are not adversely impacted.
3. Pre-Qualified Buyers
Business brokers have resources. Many can access vast connections to find you a pre-qualified buyer. Believe it or not, there are plenty of people looking to buy a business, and a broker can find the right one for you.
4. Valuation
Business brokers are well-versed in the art of business valuation. Many complex factors contribute to your business’ value – including revenues, industry, debts, competitors, receivables, and much more. A business broker will take an in-depth look at your business’ financial reports and determine a reasonable market value.
