Are you thinking about selling your business?

Here is a tip:

Keep out of it!

Most business buyers look for a business that will provide them with a good Return On Investment without taking up all of their time; they are usually multiple business owners and are not looking to buy a job for themselves.

When a business is heavily dependent on the owner, either the buyer will have to step in and run it or will have to find a replacement, and recruitment is not fun.

So if you are thinking about selling up – make sure that it runs without you as much as possible!

This will make it far more attractive to a wider range of buyers.
