Thinking of selling your Business?

Monday 1st July 2019 News

So, you are considering selling your business. Do you sell privately, instruct a Business Transfer Agent or even a local Estate Agent? All will cost money, and no doubt valuable time if wrong choices are made.

Most sellers that decide on the private option, often do not realise how much websites cost to advertise on individually, as well as allowing for the allocated time necessary to deal with a potential sale. Generally, sellers pick just one, maybe two websites that seem keenly priced and good value. Results can be disappointing when considering the time, cost, and effort needed to facilitate a private sale, with absolutely no ongoing support.

Other sellers with less time on their hands opt for a Business Transfer Agent to oversee the sale. Business Transfer Agents guarantee a comprehensive service but the costs involved often leave sellers questioning the value for money.  There’s generally, a large upfront ‘Marketing Cost’, always a water tight and comprehensive contract as well as back-end commissions that run into thousands of pounds, all of which will need considering.

Some sellers assume a decent compromise is instructing a local Estate/Commercial Agent. Generally, a much cheaper option, but unless they advertise your business on all the necessary business selling websites, understand the sale process and have a constant flow of inquiries coming in from a database of serious business buyers, a local Estate Agent can be the most disappointing choice of all. Most business buyers do not look on RIGHTMOVE, PRIMELOCATION or ZOOPLA to buy a business!
