When you want to sell internet business the first professional you need to bring onboard is an experienced business broker. The broker will guide you through the sale and help circumvent challenges. Our team at So-Cal Business Brokers is eager to work with you. We have been selling businesses like yours for decades and we know what needs to be done to achieve the best results. Here are the most important things we recommend you do when searching for best business broker to sell your online based business.
Get referrals
The first step is obviously to talk with people who are knowledgeable in the sale of businesses. Such persons will have some experience on which business brokerage firm to work with to sell internet business. Your lawyer, accountant, peers and industry association will give you some names. The rule of thumb, however, is to work with a broker based in your locality and one that has a great success rate. At So-Cal Business Brokers we serve clients in San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles. We have a 90+% success rate selling internet businesses. Contact us to find out more.
Stick with brokers that specialize in the sale of online businesses
Referrals will help compile a long list of potential business brokers. To narrow down the list, you need to remove every firm that doesn’t specialize in the sale of Internet businesses. This is for the simple fact that a business broker can be experienced but if he has never sold a business like yours he will not give you the reliable support you need.
Consider size of businesses they sell
To further narrow down your list, you should cross off every firm that has never sold a business that is the same size as yours. At So-Cal Business Brokers we sell internet businesses that are valued between $500,000 and $10 million. Contact us to find out if we can sell your business.
Avoid brokers asking for upfront fees
Another very important thing you should do is to cross off brokers who ask for huge upfront fees. The best broker to work with is the one whose only compensation is the success fee paid after closing. That is what you get when working with So-Cal Business Brokers.
Avoid being pressured to sign up
Last but not least, don’t allow any business broker to pressure you into signing up. A good broker will give you ample time to clarify everything before hiring him. They will not give you ultimatums or give you a fake sense of urgency.
