Positioning the business for sale

Firstly, you need to know your buyers. Once you know this, you can then position the business in a way that appeals to them. You need to make certain aspects of your business stand out to the different classes of buyers - remember, different types of buyers will like different things! This is the marketing exercise you do to make your business stand out to a potential purchaser.

This positioning exercise can start by promoting unique aspects of the business, or special conditions. One of your position techniques to buyers who have no experience, is that you will stay on with them for a period of time to ensure a smooth transition for the new owners and customers.

Make use of the relevant professionals when selling your business. This will improve your prospects and price. A good accountant (like Rogerson Kenny Business Accountants) will have your financials in top condition for prospective buyers and their accountants - this add creditability to your business. Like wise, have a lawyer check all your relevant contracts and leases are in place and there are no other legal issues.
