Business brokers have finely honed expertise they use to help you sell your small business, in addition to their real estate licensing, they hold memberships with organizations such as the Colorado Association of Business Intermediaries (CABI) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA). These organizations provide industry support, a vast network, continuing education, training opportunities and help brokers stay connected with the pulse of the market and industry regulations.
Today we would like to outline the five C’s of business brokerage to impart on you what makes business brokers so well suited to help you sell your business.
The Five C’s of Business Brokerage
Confidentiality: Confidentiality is key when it comes to the sale of a business! If words reaches customers or employees it can cause a lot of problems for the owner. A business broker knows how to navigate the sale of a business while also keeping it confidential through various tactics such as blind ads and non-disclosure agreements.
Continuity: By relying on a business broker, a seller can focus on the continued health of their business and preparing for the transition to a new owner. Instead of trying to both operate and sell their business, which can often feel like a second job, relying on a business broker allows both the owner and the broker to focus on what they do best.
