Selling Your Business

The sale of your business is in all probability the most significant financial transaction in which you will participate.

This important transaction is best handled with the aid and counsel of a professional experienced in a number of functional areas that have a direct impact on the value of your business and its marketability.

Working with a professional from Business Marketing Works can help insure that your personal goals are met with the sale of your business.

Business Marketing Works Inc., will provide potential buyers with an accurate and informative "Sellers Package" developed with your input detailing the business and its value.

This development process will help maximize the value of your holdings.

.
Beginning the Process

We believe that business owners should review and consider on an annual basis along with their year end strategic planning, the impact their plans will have on the value and marketability of their business.

This review is valuable even if there are no immediate plans of selling your business.

We know the decision to sell a business many times is not the result of a long term strategy, but the result of unplanned circumstances (i.e. changes in the marketplace, change of capital availability, departure of key personnel, change in the health of the owner or family member).

Waiting until the decision is made to sell is usually too late to "prepare: a business for sale." Preparing a business for maximum financial benefit to the owner is a process, not an event. This planning process should begin several years before the sale takes place.

We at Business Marketing Works offer a fee based annual review service. Our "hands on" experience in all phases of business operations can assist you in developing the best plan for your business. All information will be treated confidentially.

Structure and Financing

The structure of a business sale and the availability of reasonable funding often has more to do with a successful transaction than the asking price or the market value of the business.

Business Marketing Works, Inc., has developed significant relationships with lenders, including conventional banking institutions, venture capital funds, and private investors. These relationships often prove. to be the deciding factor in successfully concluding a sale.

The Business Marketing Works team will assist in determination of listing price, preparation of the financial package and the .presentation to potential lenders.


Personal Considerations

Determining your cash and time goals is critical to providing you with a business sale that pleases you.

We will consult with you concerning your goals and needs regarding your participation in the business during and after the sale.

For many investment minded buyers your willingness to provide management expertise for some period of time may be vital to the sale.

In other situations you may be able to increase your profits by participating as one of the lenders.

It is vital for you to have a clear picture of the many options available and the impact of these decisions.

We will help you structure a transaction that accomplishes your personal goals.
