The internet is full of invitations to sell businesses. Some promise no broker fees and some directly work for the buyers and invite you to disclose your business to them.
Beware!
Any broker that attempts to get you to sell your business and doesn’t help you prepare for the sale by evaluating the historical financial health and other aspects of the business, is a fraud, just trying to get you to list your business and hoping to get enough activity to make something happen for them, but not necessarily for you, the business owner.
The CBI Team has local offices, brick and mortar, in the regions we serve, and the CBI Prime Directive is to help business owners exit their businesses with as much money as possible.
That’s why CBI Brokers must look at financial and other documents to be prepared to help you evaluate the business BEFORE taking it to the market.
Only bad things happen to businesses that aren’t properly prepped and priced before they go to the market.
One of the tools CBI brokers use to help business owners prepare is our Value Builder program. It’s a no-fee tool that helps you evaluate your business for pricing and to see how your business matches up with similar businesses in eight different areas.

And whatever you tell CBI is confidential.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
