Should I use a business broker?
Considering using a business brokerage? Take these key questions into account when selecting the right broker:
- What kind of sales are they specialized in? Do they specifically sell businesses or are they selling businesses on the side of a real estate operation?
- Will you be working with an industry-specific broker? How much experience do they have?
- Have they received positive feedback from previous clients?
- What are their views on qualifications and ethics?
You may still be unsure about using a business broker, but there are many advantages. A broker will deal with extra tasks such as answering calls, working with future buyers, and handling finances that could get in the way of your daily workload. Using a business broker will also ensure that your sale remains private. If you decide to sell the business yourself it may not be so easy to keep this information quiet as prospective buyers will be in direct contact.
Why you should use a LINK broker:
We have compiled an extensive database of qualified buyers who are serious about buying businesses. Our registered buyers are given the opportunity to purchase businesses before they are even put on the market. Using this method we are able to move away from heavily marketing businesses, connecting buyers and sellers without having to list the business for sale. Not only does this reduce the cost of selling, but it upholds the utmost discretion during the selling process.
