Selling a Business | Overview

 

 

Preparing for your exit requires time, planning and the right team. We often meet with business owners several years in advance of their planned exit . . . at no charge. Why would we do this? We invest in long-term, high-trust relationships. We are not one of those companies that wants to just " LIST your business".

Having the right team in place will make this process much smoother. For example legal council will help manage contractual complexities. Accountants guide you in preparing your financials and manage the tax implications associated with the sale of your business. A business intermediary, like 2Transition, performs 3 important functions:

  1. Package your business to emphasize the value to potential buyers
  2. Market your business CONFIDENTIALLY to potential buyers
  3. Coordinate all of the details needed to get your deal to the closing table

Our firm does not perform valuations. We believe that the intermediary or broker needs to have an arms-length distance from this process. We do work with several professional valuation forms and can refer you to the best firm to meet your needs. In some cases, we manage this process for our clients.

Marketability and Pricing Assessment - Our firm has a proprietary assessment for companies that are trying to determine the marketability of their business.
