I'VE JUST BEEN APPROACHED TO SELL MY BUSINESS!

In today’s active M & A (mergers and acquisitions) market, it is very likely that a business owner will receive a knock at the door with an offer to purchase his business.  If the business owner has thought about selling, this could be the opportunity he has been waiting for.  If he was not thinking about selling, it might be worth exploring, as “anything is for sale for the right price.”

The most important step for a business owner to take when approached by a buyer is to protect the future of his business.  Many buyer inquiries do not translate into successful transactions.  Meanwhile, during the months of negotiations, the business owner has focused on obtaining a value for the business, meeting due diligence requirements, exploring his future with the buyer, reviewing and considering multiple layers of contractual documents, and attending endless discussions and meetings to try to complete a deal.  This time away from the business usually affects its ongoing operations and financial results – not to mention the incurred cost of professional fees.

A large corporation may be interested in purchasing your business, not for its historical profits, but for its future potential.  This potential may bring the buyer a healthy return on the investment of the purchase.  The corporation may also be interested to fill a need or void within its own organization.  It is important to note that the value of a business will be based on the future, as seen by the buyers.
