· How The Process Works

We will begin with the Listing Contract. This contract gives Us the right to sell your business and earn a commission from the sale of the business. During this process we will talk about the financials of the company to guide you in determining a fair asking price for your business. Please note that we will need complete financials to begin the marketing process.

Understand that when we are marketing your business that our buyers are looking at several other businesses that we are offering. What will make your business stand apart from the others? These are a few things you will need to think about.

Most businesses that sell today have some type of owner’s terms involved, that is, the seller is willing to take a note on the business. Usually the buyer will put 20% to 40% down, with the seller holding a note and the bank giving a loan. This looks good to the buyer that the seller believes in the business enough to hold some paper.

Imagine a triangle with three equal sides. Each corner has a label. The labels are Price, Terms, and Cash Flow. The triangle represents "The Deal" or the potential purchase. The deal can stand as long as it is standing on two of the three sides. If the price of the business is high, then the seller must be willing to offer good financial terms and must be making good money. If the business is not making good money then it must have a good price and good financial terms. Remember, a good deal has to benefit both buyer and seller.

We will then begin marketing your business and showing prospective buyers your business. All buyers have gone through the Buyers process and have been qualified. These buyers will have signed Non-Disclosure agreements with Us to ensure that the sale of your business is kept confidential.

We will work with these buyers and you together to come to terms that will make everyone happy.

The Negotiations

Once we find a buyer that is ready to move forward with the purchase of your business, we will help that buyer put together the Purchase Offer. This offer will explain the terms, conditions, and pricing structure of the deal that the buyer would like. At this time the buyer must also put down an earnest money check with this offer as a sign of good faith.

We will then bring the signed contract to you for your approval. If you approve the contract you will simply sign and we immediately call the buyer and let him know that he is proud owner of a new business. If you do not like the terms then we will help you negotiate the deal to come up with something that fits well for you and the buyer.

Once we have a contract we will work with both the buyer and the seller to get all needed information and paperwork finalized to move to closing day. The closing is simply finalizing what has already been agreed upon, getting leases assigned, phone and electric in the buyers name, and exchanging the keys for a check.

On average the closing takes place within 4 to 6 weeks depending on the type of business.
