Sell a Business Tips
Selling a Spinologists Business
In any market, there are sellers and then there are serious sellers. We'll give you the tools you need to be taken seriously when you decide to sell your spinologists business.
Personal and professional concerns surround the sale of a spinologists business. In our experience, a common owner concern is how the sale will affect customers and employees.
The business-for-sale market is extremely dynamic. Knowledgeable entrepreneurs understand that market timing isn't nearly as important as other factors in a spinologists business sale. To improve sale outcomes, you will simply need to tailor your spinologists business to today's buyers.
Understanding Market Timing
Now may be the best time to sell a spinologists business. A depressed economy means lower interest rates; lower interest rates increase the number of investors willing to take a chance on spinologists businesses. As the interest rates rise, it will be more difficult for buyers to make the numbers work in their favor. Market conditions can be intimidating. But your larger concern should be whether or not your business is ready to be presented to qualified sale prospects.
Sale Costs
In a spinologists business sale, pricing is based on a number of factors, including the costs incurred during the sale. Good brokerage takes a 10% success fee off the top of the final sale price. Professional consultations can also represent a significant expense during the course of a spinologists business sale. Furthermore, your time has value, so you may need to include a personal compensation consideration in your expense estimates.
Identifying Serious Buyers
Unfortunately, many of the prospects you will encounter aren't serious buyers. As a seller, it's important to separate the tire kickers from the serious buyers as soon as possible. Each tire kicker is an investment of time and energy that could be poured into finding a more qualified prospect. Your business broker can offer insights about how to quickly spot tire kickers. Never provide detailed information about your spinologists business until the prospect has been qualified as a serious buyer.
