information for sellers

KNOWLEDGE. Deciding to sell your business is the easy part. How to go about it is another problem altogether. Setting a price, advertising, negotiating with a prospective buyer, and a sea of legal and financial details need to be addressed. Also, most accounting in a privately held company is done to minimize tax obligations and may not portray the company in the best light; we deal with this problem every day.
CONFIDENTIALITY. We can market your business without your employees, customers, suppliers, or competitors knowing that it is for sale. This is important to the smooth continuation of the business during the selling process.
TIME. We can save you time and frustration when it comes to selling your business. We’re the small business experts who can guide you through every aspect of the selling process - from arriving at a fair market price to handling financial arrangements and closing the transaction. We’re good at what we do. That’s why so many clients come back to Sunbelt Business Brokers.
MARKETING. Because so many small businesses go on the market each year, selling a business is a competitive ordeal. At Sunbelt Business Brokers, South Central Alabama, you have the advantage of our belonging to the Sunbelt Network, the largest network of business brokers in the United States. We expose your business to prospective buyers locally, regionally, statewide, nationwide, and now, with the Internet, worldwide. In addition, we screen buyers. Because we work with each potential buyer in finding the right business, the prospect we bring to you is genuinely interested in and financially capable of purchasing your business. Only a small percentage of people who inquire about a business eventually purchases a business of that type. While this can be maddening if you try to sell your business alone, it’s a big plus if you are working with us. Since we receive many inquires each day, the fact that your firm is listed with us increases the likelihood of finding a buyer early in the selling process.
NEGOTIATIONS. Determining the right price, of course, is crucial. We’ll arrive at a fair market price that you can feel good about, because we know the prices of similar types of businesses in addition to trends at work in the market. We handle negotiations in a clean, patient, professional manner that keeps the business issues clearly in focus, rather than clouded by emotions and personalities.
SUCCESS. We at Sunbelt Business Brokers are well-trained professionals and we are aware of your needs. We have personal experience as small business owners, buyers, and sellers. Whether you are ready to sell your business now or are just beginning to think about it, call us for a confidential, no cost, and no obligation appointment. We will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
