SELLING A BUSINESS


Selling a business is a specialised function. Just as business owners wouldn’t
attempt to do their own legal or tax work, they should seek professional
assistance when it comes to selling such an important asset. The majority of Business Owners choose to sell their business through Key Business and Commercial Sales because:

  • A Seller representing him or herself cannot maintain anonymity. The
    lost confidentiality could seriously hurt the business prior to its sale if competitors or employees became aware of the sale.
  • A Seller may not be knowledgeable in current areas of law, accounting,
    taxes, and the best processes of marketing the businesses.
  • A Business Owner typically does not have the ability or time to contact,
    screen and qualify a large group of prospects to find a qualified buyer who is serious and will offer a fair price.
  • Our Brokers have the experience, knowledge, and negotiating skills to sell businesses effectively and for the best price, particularly in a highly emotional negotiation where the Buyer’s objectives are totally opposite to the Seller’s.

 

Working with one of our Skilled Professional Brokers will make the difference between an owner just “selling” a business or selling it to the right buyer for the Best Price and Terms possible. Due to Better’s extensive Database of Pre-Qualified Buyers, we have a greater ability to find the right buyer than would business owners on their own.
