Selling your Business: Plan ahead for a successful handover!

When and how can the torch be passed effectively? Anticipate!

You envisioned it, built it, adapted it, and made it grow. Now, your business is finally well established in the market. Business is booming, the phone is ringing, your inbox is overflowing, and orders are pouring in. Who would even think about selling their business now, just as it is reaching the success you had always hoped for?

Many will wait too long, far too long. They will only consider it when inquiries become scarce and clients grow too quiet. These business owners will find themselves selling the company they dedicated their lives to in a rush, making the process far more uncertain, difficult, or even impossible!

By nature, entrepreneurs think about the future. Among the many questions they ask themselves, knowing when to step back is crucial. While some refuse to consider it, caught up in their success or ignoring the signs, others choose to reflect on it and take action in advance. And they’re right! As with many things, the key lies in preparation.

How do you know if it’s the right time to sell your business? When should you start preparing? What are the best steps to ensure a successful transfer? How long does a business transfer take?
