Selling your business should free you from stress and leave you feeling proud. Most machine shop owners don’t know how to prepare their business for sale. Instead, they reach out to a broker who positions the business so a "trade buyer" (read one of your competitors) might be interested. The same people who might be interested in stealing your employees and your customers. Watch our free class and learn how to sell to the type of buyer you want regardless of what a broker might want.
Trade buyers often chop up your business after the sale, private equity companies will want you to keep running the business because they don't know how to, but the right buyer offering the right terms will keep your business operating and growing.
Understanding the terms and deal structure that works for you will let you minimize the impact of taxes and maximize your disposable income after the sale.
You've spent most of a lifetime building your business, taking care of your customers and your employees. With the right buyer you can ensure that they continue to be taken care of. You can make sure that the legacy you created continues.
Our free interactive online class will introduce the key concepts and steps you need to take to both maximize the value of your business and how to make sure the buyer you want makes the offer you want.
Meet with one of our business valuation experts to discuss your business's current valuation, and steps you can take to make your business easier to sell to the buyer you want.
Armed with the right knowledge you can attract the type of business buyer you want, you can dictate the sales terms you want, and you can ensure that your business moves into the future the way you choose.
We know that you have probably spent more time working on and in your business than you have with your family over the past decades. It's your baby.
And you want your baby to continue to grow, to be well known, respected, and successful.
In order to do that, you need a simple way to ensure that your baby is positioned to attract the kind of buyer who will continue to operate it with integrity, taking care of your legacy.
The problem is that most business brokers have never run a machine shop and will almost always position your business to sell to one of your competitors. They call these people "trade buyers." Most of these trade buyers are simply planning to chop up your baby keeping the parts they want and throwing out what they don't.
If your business is a little bit bigger the brokers get excited, because now they can market your business to "financial buyers." These buyers will offer top dollar but you won't get all of it unless you agree to work for them for 3 to 5 years and meet their growth targets. Then they expect to flip it to a new investor for 50% more than they paid you.
If you want your baby chopped up, or you want to work for someone else for the next 5 years go ahead and find a business broker without getting ready first.
But if you want to find a safe pair of hands that will take your baby into the future take our free class to understand how to attract the right kind of buyer, and how to position your business so that they can pay you what you need for it and ensure that it continues to grow and prosper, we can help.
