You’ve probably spent years building your business.  And so, when it comes time to exit, how can you increase the chances of a successful transition?

Retaining an experienced business broker is a good place to start.

1. Accurate business valuation and financials

2. Effective marketing

3. The right buyers at the table

4. Effective negotiation

5. An outsourced, efficient process

6. Confidential dialog

7. Documentation
