How Do I Value my Business?
Your AIM Team professional business broker will provide you with a complimentary valuation for your business sale. Our expansive broker experience, valuation techniques, and reviews of comparable sales will provide you with a value indicating what your business could sell for in today's market. Every industry has a set formula that can be referenced to come up with a price range, yet every business sale is unique. The length of the time the business has been established, transferable lease terms, whether it is owner-operated or more absentee, financial records, inventory, fixed assets, transferable contracts, and level of competition in the area can all affect your practice value.
Why Would I Utilize A Third-Party Business Valuation Firm?
On larger businesses, it is often advisable to utilize a more formal valuation from an independent third-party valuation firm. It is proven that the buyer's confidence in an independent third-party valuation report frequently results in a quicker sale at a higher price. The cost of this formal valuation usually more than pays for itself. Your AIM Team broker can help you decide if this may be more beneficial for your circumstance. Refer to our page on Valuation for assistance on how to value a business.
Will The AIM Team Respect My Concern For Confidentiality?
All AIM Team business brokers are licensed in the state of California with his or her Real Estate Broker/Agent license. The importance of confidentiality has been instilled in each AIM Team broker from his or her past experiences and current ethics training. Your confidential information will not be disclosed to a buyer unless they have been qualified by us to purchase a business similar to yours and they have completed an approved Confidentiality Agreement and Buyer Profile. We recognize sensitivities with regard to employees, clients, suppliers, banking relationships, and your competition. Information shared with your AIM Team broker is held in strict confidence and is handled in a delicate and professional manner.
What Information Will Be Requested To Value My Business?
Please refer to our page entitled Preparing To Sell. If you are thinking about a sale, now is the time to get caught up on your bookkeeping.
Do I Need a Lawyer and/or Accountant for business sale advise?
A sale is a significant legal transaction. We advise that you utilize the advisory services of your attorney and/or accountant to review all legal documents and to help ensure that you are clear on the tax effects of this transaction.
How Does AIM Team Business Brokerage Get Paid?
We are paid only for success, and therefore receive our fee only at the close of your business sale transaction. Occasionally, small fees may be required if we are requested to perform additional services.
How Does AIM Team Business Brokerage Find Buyers?
AIM Team business brokers work with you to create a customized marketing information package, or offering memorandum, for your business. Your confidential listing will be exposed statewide, nationally, and internationally to thousands of potential buyers through selective placements on various Business Listing Services, including that of the expansive IBBA and CABB business broker associations. Buyers can often be found through our search of expansive broker-only databases of registered buyers. Selective national and local listings will be placed on nationally recognized business opportunity websites, this website, the Business Opportunity section of the local Realtor MLS, print media via newspaper or industry associations, networking, and/or other proprietary techniques. With AIM Team marketing, you will see that buyers are plentiful.
Why Not Try To Sell My Business Myself?
Because they do not have access to a large number of qualified buyers, many owners end up selling their business for much less than they could have received by working with a well-established professional business broker. Often a seller comes to us after an unsuccessful transaction with an unqualified buyer. The time and ability to contact, screen and qualify a large group of buyers is substantial. The frustration, time and expense involved do not ultimately save costs. A qualified broker can help structure the deal to your advantage, strongly negotiate on your behalf, and assist with the many details to help ensure a successful escrow. Selling a business is a specialized trade. Seek professional assistance when it comes to selling an asset as valuable as your business.
