Selling a Florida business can be a challenging yet rewarding experience for the business owner. Consultation with a professional Business Broker at Truforte Business Group can be an important first step for the business owner looking to sell a Florida business. Truforte Business Group will guide the business owner through the complete process of selling a business.
The process begins with a preliminary, no-obligation meeting that is scheduled at the seller’s convenience, and usually at the seller’s place of business. General information is exchanged, so the Seller and Truforte Business Group can become acquainted with each other and their respective business.
Next, additional information is compiled and examined to determine the value of the business. Information needed will include: two to three years of detailed and current financial statements, balance sheets, and income tax returns, as well as information on other assets to be transferred when selling the Florida business.
A valuation is then performed to provide the Seller with a price range, which he can expect to receive for his business. Truforte Business Group consults with the Seller to establish the proper terms and asking price for the business.
Finally, a contractual agreement is entered into between the Seller and Truforte Business Group, giving Truforte Business Group the right to market the business as the transactional agent for a specified time period and under specified terms and conditions.
