Dire economic forecasts have forced many automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers business sellers into hibernation. Instead of listing their companies now, they're hanging back until they see signs of an economic recovery.

Selecting a Broker

Good business brokers inevitably produce better business sales. In the automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers business industry, experience is a must-have characteristic for qualified brokerage. The best brokers should also come with a list of references, a demonstrable track record and a proven plan for selling automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers businesses.

Seller Financing

Business buyers are in a capital crunch. Banks and other lending institutions aren't eager to lend to unproven and undercapitalized automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers business buyers regardless of the business's potential. Rather than abandon their plans entirely, many buyers are pursuing finance concessions from sellers. Although 100% seller financing isn't recommended, sellers are financing up to 70% of the sale price to close deals.

Understanding Market Timing

Now may be the best time to sell an automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers business. A depressed economy means lower interest rates; lower interest rates increase the number of investors willing to take a chance on automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers businesses. When the economy recovers there will be more automated teller machines wholesale and manufacturers business buyers on the market, but higher interest rates could present challenges. So we see market timing as a concern that can be easily mitigated by applying fundamental sales strategies and adequately preparing your company for buyers.
