What to Expect From the Sales Process
One of the most important services that our business brokers provide is advice. We not only guide you through the sales process and provide technical services to facilitate the sale of your business, but also teach you about the sales process.
Our business brokers know that most business owners have never sold a business before, and as a result may not know what to expect. This makes an already stressful sales process even more challenging. To alleviate this stress, our business brokers make sure that you always know what to expect.
Every business sale has its own unique intricacies and nuances. However, there are some things that are standard aspects of the sales process and can be expected from any sale. Some of the common aspects of any sale include:
- Buyers will usually want to have the sale financed either through a lending service or through the seller.
- Buyers will expect to negotiate the terms and price of your sale.
- Buyers will want to review as much information about your company as possible, so you should be prepared to disclose information to potential buyers.
- You will most likely be asked to sign a non-compete agreement.
- You should be prepared to refrain from telling anyone about your sale (including employees) until the sale is finalized.
- You should expect to utilize confidentiality agreements with anyone involved in your sale.
