Selling a Business

EXPERIENCE: Our dealmakers are some of the most experienced professionals in the business. Their business ownership and brokerage backgrounds have taught them what to expect and how to handle the difficult situations that will inevitably arise on the complex path to the closing table.

EXPOSURE: Businesses need the widest possible exposure to maximize their purchase price. Many brokers will market only to buyers in the immediate area. We utilize numerous national and international marketing channels, including the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Investors Business Daily. We also utilize various internet brokerage sites such as, BizBuySell, MergerNetwork and BrokerWorks. Peak is a respected member of the International Business Brokers Association and the Colorado Association of Business Intermediories.

Exposure increases the likelihood that a “limited auction” environment can be created, which means higher, competition-driven prices.

CONFIDENTIALITY: It is critical that the public and employees are not aware of the potential sale
of the business until such time that you deem it appropriate. We utilize a proven system of checks and balances to assure confidentiality. A prospective buyer is not aware of the identity of the business or is given any type of detailed information until they have:
• Executed a legal document committing them to confidentiality.
• Provided evidence of their financial ability to complete a transaction at the proposed price and terms.

DETAILS: To bring a deal from contract to closing involves attention to a myriad of details: proper licensing, regulatory compliance, lender requirements, interfacing with attorneys and accountants, financial due diligence, landlord negotiations, etc. We move the burden of these items from the business owner to us.
