If you are considering selling your business, it is important that your business is correctly valued to ensure that you are receiving the amount you deserve. Several factors determine the value of a business, perhaps the most important of which is your business’s profit opportunity. In addition, buyers will consider the risk level and growth rate of your business.

After your business is valued, negotiations will occur. As the seller, you must understand the leverage you hold and use this leverage to make your business as desirable as possible to potential buyers. This helps ensure you maintain bargaining power that can help you get a better offer.

In addition, reading the letter of intent carefully is important because usually there is a clause that states that, once signed, the seller cannot negotiate with other buyers.
