Sell a Business FAQ

What your business is worth depends on a number of factors, including revenue, profitability, industry, operations, customer base, and more. We offer free valuations to help you understand what your business may realistically sell for in today’s market if you’re looking to sell a business.

Multiples vary by industry, business size, and financial health. A multiplier is a number applied to your earnings (typically EBITDA or SDE) to estimate the value of your business. While many businesses fall within a common range, the right multiplier depends on your specific situation. Businesses are also valued based off of comparable sales in the industry. We’ll help you understand what applies to your business and why.

If you’re wanting to sell a business, start preparing as early as possible. Clean up your financials, reduce unnecessary expenses, and make sure everything is documented. Buyers pay more when everything is clear, organized, and profitable.

They matter a lot! Buyers and lenders will look closely at your financials from the last 3-5 years. The cleaner and more accurate your P&Ls, balance sheets and cash flow statements are, the more confident they’ll feel about buying your business, and the stronger your offers will be.

It varies quite a bit, but the average is around 9 months from start to close. However, keep in mind that some may sell in as little as 30 days while others can take a year or even more. It all depends on your industry, the details of your business, buyer interest, and the business climate.

Focus on financials first. Clean, accurate books are key. Also look at staffing, equipment, and systems. Most buyers prefer a turnkey, organized business that will be easy to take over.
