FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How are you different from a business broker?

Bizsale.com is an advertising company and not real estate agents, salesmen, or brokers. This means we don’t charge a commission on your sales price. Our fees are fixed in advance.  We don’t hide buyers from you but rather actively involve you in the sales process.

How do I determine the value of my business?

A realistic business valuation requires more than merely looking at last year’s financial statement. You need to perform a thorough analysis of several years of the business operation. Then you must assess the future outlook of the industry, the economy, and how your company will compete.

Why you must have a business valuation

Where can I find a buyer for my business?

There are a few ways to find a buyer for your business, including through online FSBO business listing marketplaces, business brokers , M&A advisors, investment bankers, and the hybrid model.

Business acquisitions are on the rise, as there are currently 15 potential buyers for every business listed for sale. Working with a business marketing company like ABC can help you secure the best terms and prices for your business. We have a vast database of potential buyers and we don’t charge the high commissions of business brokers.
