Failure to PREPARE your business for sale
Failure to MARKET your business successfully
Failure to do a proper VALUATION of your business
Failure to QUALIFY potential buyers
Failure to ensure CONFIDENTIALITY
PREPARE, MARKET, VALUATE, QUALIFY, KEEP CONFIDENTIAL……….These are the key components to keep in mind so that you don’t fall into the common pitfalls when trying to sell your business. Even one mistake or oversight can be costly. Remember, you are the expert at running your business, not selling your business. Your job is to keep running your business well throughout the selling process. Consider hiring a business broker, who is the expert in selling businesses and who will put in the necessary time and due diligence. But don’t just hire any business broker. A good broker chooses the client as much as the client chooses the business broker. A good broker for you is one who has experience and knowledge in your industry or market segment.
