Inc's 10 Questions to ask before Buying a Business
May 26, 2011 by Michael Davidson
I just read an interesting Article from Inc., entitled 10 Questions to ask before Buying a Business. Many experts are predicting that a huge wave of businesses will become available over the next decade or so as baby boomers look to sell. As the economy continues its climb into a full-blown recovery (we hope), it just might be the perfect time for you to fulfill that lifelong dream of buying a business. If you can find the right business that is the right fit for you, I think this is a great time to buy! Overall, I think it's a pretty good list. When we create a Confidential Business Review (CBR), we try to address these questions up front before you even meet with the owner. Some of the questions not asked by Inc., which we think are important include: Can you as a new owner successfully run and operate this business? If not, the other questions don't really matter.

A Strategic Business Sale Case Study
December 03, 2010 by Kendric Foultz
A strategic business sale takes place when the buyer finds additional value in the business for sale than the average financial buyer is able to identify. Most small businesses for sale, if positioned correctly, will attract a number of possible buyers. But in some cases the business for sale in question might be so specialized in its market as to require a very unique buyer. I recently brokered the sale of a specialized jewelry design and manufacturing business that posed this very challenge. The only viable buyers for this business were well known by the seller. These prospects did not know that owner was interested in selling his business and it was my job to keep it that way until we had secured enough general interest in the opportunity.
Assessing the Assets of Your Business
July 06, 2010 by Robert Dean
If you are thinking about selling your business, it would be greatly beneficial to catalog all of your assets in order to help with a successful sale. A business's value is calculated in part by its list of assets. The more you can substantiate your asset value, the more it will increase the business value. Assets are different in every business, and one asset may be more or less important depending on the business and industry. Make sure that you write down and understand how all of your assets contribute to the success of the business. Some of the assets that a seller needs to address include: Equipment: Is the equipment old or new? What condition is it? What's the replacement value? Trade name, Trademarks, & Patents: Does your name and product represent value to your customers? Inventory: How much inventory do your have? What condition is it in? What's the value? Customer & Database Contacts: How many contacts do you have? How many are repeat customers?
