4 Reasons to Consider Selling Your Business.

You had a dream – you wanted to build a successful business that would have a positive impact on the world.  This is a tremendous undertaking and one that takes a lot of hard work, passion and patience but you stuck to it and made it happen.  You made that commitment to yourself and put your energy into building your business to a profitable level – that is definitely something to be celebrated!

As you move along the road of life at some point all business owners will have to think about selling their business.  There are a variety of reasons for selling such as,

  • Moving to your next challenge
  • Looking towards retirement
  • The market is in a good place to sell
  • You want to move into a new line of work

Let’s take a closer look:

Moving to your next challenge. If you set goals for yourself, and those goals have been met to your satisfaction, it may be time to move onto your next challenge.  If your business is profitable it could be the perfect time to sell and move to the next phase of your life.  Selling your business can be a difficult step, however, knowing it’s being sold to another business owner, who is excited to jump in and continue to grow what you have created, is a very rewarding feeling.  As you embrace your new challenge, you can be proud of what you are leaving behind.

Retirement.  You thought the day would never come, but alas, it has arrived.  You have put your energy and passion into your business for many years and now it is time to retire.  Selling when your business is successful is the perfect way to pass the torch and to set yourself up to enjoy your retirement.  The products or services that you offered will continue to be enjoyed by your customers – new and old.

Market conditions are HOT. You were ahead of the curve in your thoughts and actions and you were able to build a business in an industry that is now in demand.  Fantastic!  Selling your business while the market is hot will get you the best price for your growing business.  It also offers you the chance to look ahead and create new opportunities in the next up-and-coming industries for yourself. 

Simply ready to move on.  If your passion has shifted to another area of interest you can use the equity and funds you built in your business to shift to your new area of interest.  This is all part of the building blocks of life and the best part is you can use what you built to help fund your new life.
