Common Seller Mistakes

Of the services that our business brokers provide, guidance may be one of the most important. At Morgan & Westfield, our brokers will guide you through the entire sales process. We will be there for you from the moment that your business is put up for sale to the moment that the sale is finalized, guiding and assisting you each step of the way.

We understand that you may be new to the sales process. Oftentimes, first-time business sellers make certain mistakes that make achieving a successful sale harder. By guiding you through the sale, our brokers will help you avoid common seller mistakes, making a successful sale far more likely.

Some of the common mistakes that our business brokers will help you avoid include:

• Failure to Maintain a Confidential Sale: The confidentiality of any business sale is important. If your sale becomes public knowledge, the welfare of your company could be put in jeopardy. Customers may see an impending sale as a sign that they should take their business elsewhere. And competitors may see it as an opportunity to increase their market share. These responses can damage the value of your company and make your company more difficult to sell, resulting in a long and less profitable sales process.
• Failure to Disclose Important Information about Your Business: Business owners are often hesitant to disclose negative information about their business to potential buyers; this is always a mistake. When a business owner discloses this information to a buyer, the buyer is usually far more forgiving. He or she understands that all businesses go through some difficult times and will usually see your honesty as a sign that you can be trusted. If a buyer discovers negative information on his or her own, he or she will assume that you were hiding it, causing the buyer react more harshly.
• An Unwillingness to Negotiate: Some business owners will have a set price in mind that they want to sell their business for, and they are unwilling to negotiate that price; this is also a mistake. Buyers will expect to negotiate the terms of your sale. So you must be prepared to negotiate these terms if you are going to achieve a successful sale.
• Taking Negotiations Personally: When you are negotiating with potential buyers, it is absolutely vital that you do not take negotiations personally. When you take them personally, a successful negotiation process and ultimate sale become almost impossible.
