For Milwaukee area owners considering a sale. Understand the questions, prepare the basics and request a conversation with a business valuation partner.
You have built a business. Deciding how to leave it asks a different set of questions. Start with what the company earns, what would transfer and what you want to do next.
What Would a Buyer Inherit?
The conversation gets clearer when you separate the assets you own from the operation that produces the earnings.
| LOOK AT | MAKE IT CLEAR | START HERE |
|---|---|---|
| Earnings | What remains after normal operating costs and the work you do? | Prepare your records |
| Customers | Which relationships belong to the company and which depend on you? | Review account risk |
| Premises | Does a buyer need your building, a new lease or a separate agreement? | Separate the property |
