Selling Your Business | Green Industry Pros

"Selling a business is not unlike selling a house. In fact, both require big emotional decisions and meticulous planning. However, the process of selling something that has encompassed years of hard work and dedication takes more than putting up a “For Sale” sign. Editorial note:  Never, ever, ever put up a for sale sign on your business unless you want your customers, employees, suppliers and revenue to flee.  This is why you never hire a residential or commercial realtor to do a specialized job such as selling a business.

According to a recent BizBuySell study, there were nearly 50 percent more businesses sold in 2013, than there were in 2012. To break it down, there were approximately 7,000 small businesses sold in 2013, compared with 4,730 sold the previous year. During that same time period, the housing market looked brighter than it has in years.

People are becoming more confident with the state of the economy and are willing to make bigger decisions that will have a lasting impact on their lives. If you are looking to transition out of your business, the tips below could make the processes a bit easier."
