If you have decided to sell your business, it\u2019s vital that you take the correct steps to ensure a successful sale. Even a small mistake or an unintentional omission on your part can prove to be costly – leading to delays, a reduced sales price or a dead deal.<\/p>\n

How can you ensure that the sale goes through as planned? Is there any way to guarantee that you get the maximum possible value for your business?<\/p>\n

Here are five rules that you should follow during the sale process. You can adapt or modify them to your situation, but don\u2019t ignore them. Adhering to these rules could help you to avoid many of the problems that arise when a business is being sold.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Rule #1 – Get your house in order<\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can be sure that the prospective buyer is going to ask detailed financial and operational questions about your business. You will be required to support your answers with proper documentation. It is essential that your financial and business records are up to date and reflect an accurate picture of your company\u2019s operations.\u00a0 This includes three years of profit and loss statements, corporate tax returns (with documented adjustments from your CPA), asset list, inventory updates, employee information including a simple organizational chart, customer information, etc.<\/p>\n

Spend some time cleaning up your records. Hire a bookkeeper or a CPA. It will be worth the effort and the expense.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Rule #2 – Sell at the right time<\/span><\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n

The best time to sell a business is when it is doing well. Your sales should be rising, your cash position should be good, and you should have healthy projections. Obviously, this could be the most difficult time to let go, but if you want the highest possible value for your business, you have to sell it when the future is bright.\u00a0 Although buyers pay for how the business has performed, they decide to buy based on how the business might perform in the future.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Rule #3 – Don\u2019t hide any details from the buyer<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/h3>\n

It is critical that you remain transparent during the sale process. Convey all the essential information as early as possible.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let yourself get into a position where an adverse fact about your business is discovered during the due diligence process. This could put you at a disadvantage and make the buyer suspicious about the accuracy of the other information that you have provided. It\u2019s best to get bad news out early \u2013 no sense waiting until the day before the closing to deal with a major hurdle.<\/b><\/p>\n

Rule #4 – It\u2019s a marathon, not a sprint<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/h3>\n

How long does it take to sell a business? The general rule is that it takes longer than the seller expects.<\/p>\n

If your asking price is higher than the amount that buyers are willing to pay, the length of time will go up. The due diligence process alone could also eat up several weeks.\u00a0 Then there\u2019s the landlord, the lender, the franchisor, the staff\u2026it takes time.<\/p>\n

As a seller, it’s best to pace yourself. Don\u2019t expect the sale to be closed quickly but do expect the deal to stay on track. Maintain your enthusiasm and try and follow the maxim that says, \u201cMake haste slowly.\u201d A deliberate and measured approach will usually get the fastest results.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Rule #5 – Check the buyer\u2019s fit<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/h3>\n

Buying and selling is a two-way street.\u00a0 The business has to be a fit to the buyer. Can the buyer really operate the business?\u00a0 Does he\/she have the necessary capital to keep the business running properly?\u00a0 Is the culture you\u2019ve built with employees, suppliers and customers likely to continue based on the way the new owner deals with people?\u00a0 Even on an all-cash sale, there\u2019s still pride in ownership and most sellers truly want to see the business flourish after the deal is done.\u00a0 Take the time to get to know the buyer and convey your values so that you can determine the \u201cfit\u201d.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to be flexible<\/u><\/h4>\n

Don\u2019t expect everything to proceed as planned. If you aren\u2019t getting the offers that you hoped for, it may be necessary to reduce your expectations. \u00a0It\u2019s better to compromise a little on the sale price or carry financing for a qualified buyer rather than finding yourself in a position where the business hits a rough patch and value erodes.<\/p>\n
