Things To Do Before Placing Your Business For Sale. . . 

• If you want to get top dollar for your business, you need to make sure to stay several steps ahead of the buyer. Make sure you have a defensible, accurate, and credible Business Valuation. Please see our Certified Valuations page for details.

• A Comprehensive Business Plan will go a long way toward solidifying the strength of your business. Comprehensive Business Plans are designed for existing businesses for the purpose of planning, growth plans, obtaining new customers, business loans, mergers, acquisitions or buyouts. This report is 30-40 pages.

• Today’s buyers are shrewd and determined to pay the least amount possible for any business. Due diligence can be an arduous, painful process, or a straightforward clean process of discovery. Make sure your business is prepared for the tough questions that buyers ask.  Succession Plans, Marketing Plans, and Reviewed or Compiled Financial statements are all data rich sources that will help your business sail through the Due Diligence process and retain its full asking price in the face of the most demanding buyer.

• We understand that today's business owner is more independent than ever. We want to be there to help you when you need us. Whether it be handling the entire Merger and Acquisition process, or providing you with a-la-cart services as you sell it yourself,  AMERICAN FORTUNE Business Transfers & Acquisitions is ready to help.  Call us for pricing and to discuss what works best for your business sale needs.
