Should You Use a M&A Advisor to Sell Your Business?
What Does an M&A Advisor or Business Broker Do?
M&A advisors represent sellers (or purchasers) in the sale (or purchase) of their businesses. A sell-side advisor will provide the seller with a valuation (proposed sale price) for the business, market the business, secure offers, guide negotiations, and manage the due diligence process and closing.
The typical advisor’s fee is a commission (comprised of a percentage of the transaction value) and a monthly retainer, which is later credited to reduce the commission at close. Some firms offer a ‘No Money Down’ commission option in exchange for a ‘hands-off’ approach where the advisor doesn’t perform a significant amount of work before a purchase offer is received and accepted.
Use a M&A Advisor if You Want:
Confidentiality
Don’t want employees to know? Your M&A Advisor acts as your intermediary, answering calls from potential buyers so your identity is hidden.
Save Time / Speed
Selling your business is a 2nd job - fielding calls, building financial models & marketing materials, etc. Let your advisor handle the sale so you can focus on your business operations for a high value exit.
Highest Pay-Out
Expertise and an extensive network are required to assess your business’ value, set the ‘right price’ and market your business listing through public and/or private channels to maximize your pay-out.
Prevent Deal Ending Errors
M&A can be a complex road with deal breaking pot holes. Skilled advisors can identify and flag hidden problems, negotiate with buyers and other stakeholders, and structure the deal to protect your interest.
