Options:

Sellers have the following 3 options when considering the potential sale of their company:

1. Sell by themselves, usually to a competitor
2. Sell with the assistance of their attorney, accountant, or other advisor
3. Sell by utilizing the services of a professional business broker or business intermediary

Each year, most businesses that are sold in the United States are sold via options 1 or 2 and the sale price is quite often significantly lower than the price that could be obtained by a professional intermediary under option 3. Two of the primary reasons for this are due to the fact that the Seller is simply not aware of option 3 or the Seller believes the fee or commission that will be charged by the professional intermediary is too high. The statistics tell the whole truth. Sellers who engage a professional intermediary generally walk away from the closing table with more money, even after the professional's fee or commission is paid at closing. In reality, the Seller is paying a steep commission by not selecting a professional intermediary to represent them in the marketplace.
