Selling an Air Cleaning and Purifying Service

Many business leaders say that now isn't the time to try to sell an air cleaning and purifying service. At Gaebler, we think it's a great time to sell an air cleaning and purifying service. Here's why . . ..

The economy isn't the only thing that is uncertain these days. So are air cleaning and purifying service buyers, many of whom are waiting to pull the trigger on their next acquisition.

Undaunted by economic conditions, many air cleaning and purifying service sellers are achieving their sale goals through deliberate sale strategies.

Professional Appraisals

An experienced appraiser is part and parcel of a successful air cleaning and purifying service sale. By hiring an appraiser to conduct a thorough appraisal of tangible and non-tangible assets prior to listing, you get a measure of the true worth of your business. Although the appraised value of your business may not be the same as the sales price, you gain valuable insight that can be used to your advantage during negotiations. If you're disappointed with the appraiser's estimate of your company's worth, you have the option of seeking a second opinion. However, it's more often the case that you will need to adjust your expectations of your business's value to buyers.

Factoring In Economic Variables

When you sell an air cleaning and purifying service, there are a number of variables you need to consider. A combination of economic conditions and market sentiment can complicate your sale. But at Gaebler, we advise our business partners to look beyond simple economic data when determining whether it's the right time to sell an air cleaning and purifying service. A much better approach is to focus on the factors that always attract buyers and investors. When it comes to selling an air cleaning and purifying service, successful sales sales often boil down to the business itself - not the economy.

Why Confidentiality Matters

Highly publicized air cleaning and purifying service sales are risky air cleaning and purifying servicesales. A low-key selling strategy is a low risk activity because you can control who does (and doesn't) know that your business is on the market. Eventually, word will leak out. When that happens, it can damage your standing with customers and vendors. Although it can be difficult, it's important to strike a balance between confidentiality and sale promotion. Brokers and consultants can mitigate the risk by implementing confidential sale techniques.
