We Value Confidentiality as Much as You Do

One of our most sought-after services is our confidential marketing campaign. Effectively marketing your business’s sale is an integral part of the sales process. Failure to execute an effective marketing campaign will make it almost impossible for you to attract buyers, making a successful sale unlikely.

Advertising the sale of a business is unlike any other type of advertising. You cannot put out a “for sale” sign or simply create an advertisement that says this company is for sale. Advertising a business’s sale requires subtlety and discretion. This is due to the reason that a business’s sale, unlike any other type of sale, must be completed confidentially. To accomplish this task, our team of business advisors has developed a system for confidentially marketing business sales. Interested buyers are screened and asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement before they are allowed to view your business’s offering document. This marketing strategy maintains the anonymity of your business, thereby ensuring a confidential sale.

You may be wondering why it is so important that your sale remains confidential. Failure to maintain a confidential sale can do significant damage to your business. If your customers learn about the sale, they might take their business elsewhere. Your suppliers might refuse to continue working with you or offer you unfavorable contract terms, and your competitors might view it as an opportunity to increase their market share. All of these possible outcomes will negatively impact your business’s sale, driving your market value down and discouraging potential buyers from seriously considering purchasing your business. For these reasons, it is vital that your business is sold confidentially.

Your Business Deserves Quality Buyers

For your sale to be successful in the long term, you will need to work with qualified buyers who are both financially capable of purchasing your business and intellectually capable of managing your business. If your buyer does not possess both of these qualities, the business may fail and your buyer may default on their payments, resulting in legal battles and an unsuccessful sale.

At the Huntsville, Alabama, office of Morgan & Westfield, our business brokers will personally screen all of your potential buyers. We will interview them to learn more about their interest in your company and we will investigate their financial history to verify that they have a record of successfully repaying their debts. These buyers will also be asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement to ensure that your information remains confidential. And they can even be required to make an initial offer (with contingencies) before they have full access to your business’s information. Screening the buyers in this way ensures that you will only be connected to qualified buyers who are legitimately interested in purchasing your business.
