http://www.whitehurst-ma.com: Mergers & Acquisitions, Business Broker | selling business in bad economy
What do business owners need to do if they are looking to sell their business in a bad economy? If a business owner were only going to sell their fixed assets (fixtures, furniture, and equipment), then that business owner certainly would not need me as a business broker. All they would need to do is get a valuation on those assets and put them on the chopping block and sell them.
The biggest single aspect of sell price of businesses is the goodwill value of the business. And today more than ever, that goodwill value needs to be substantiated to buyers. Business buyers are obviously a little bit skeptical about the future of our economy. Buyers are going to be, perhaps, more astute at analyzing the infrastructure of the company: the things that make up the goodwill value of the company.
Some of the things that business owners can do in getting ready to prepare their business for sale:
- Managerial tools in place (being used/quantified)
- Procedure manual
- Training manual
- Formalized sales program
- Marketing plan
Many business owners like a procedure manual and have a marketing plan, but it's in the back of their head. If a buyer, a prospective buyer, can sit down and look at a marketing plan and see where that business can be taken and that the markets have been identified, even the customers have been identified and how, and that that sales marketing plan is in place and being used and it has been used, and it can be quantified as how effective it is, is a big step in being able to show perception to that buyer that there is a goodwill value in that business and that the business is going to be a good prospective business to buy in today's market.
