Your Business

Selling a business can be a once in a lifetime opportunity to capitalise on thousands of hours, years, of personal time invested away from family.

The initial investment, together with the ongoing capital improvements required over the years to grow the business, all have to be recovered…with real interest.

When planning the sale of your business, it is important to begin early. Starting up to 12 months in advance will deliver significant financial upsides.

Get Merchants together with your accountant, so they may collaborate on how the operation and financial performance of your business might be optimised, to enhance marketability.

Each business is as unique as the ever changing buyer profiles and criteria in the marketplace.

Timing and preparation can play a critical role in marketing, affecting buyer competition, price, terms and conditions of sale.

Business Broking is a profession that requires a variety of skills, experience and judgment.

A range of skills must be employed by the broker to appraise the value of the business, market it to the perfect buyer profile, negotiate the optimum terms and conditions, and facilitate the completion and handover.

Whilst experience and judgment might be considered by some to go hand in hand, we believe our sense of judgment is more instinctive; separating Merchants as leaders in our industry.
