For many of us, retirement is largely about the saving process and determining that moment to move from the working world to the non-working world. If you’re a business owner, the same might apply, but with some caveats. If you want to sell your business and find a qualified buyer, that moment may choose you as much as you choose it.
Was hoping to get perspective from those of you that have experienced it, or will experience it. Share anything you’re comfortable sharing, but some specific questions I have:
* How long did it take for you to find a buyer?
* Did you work independently or with a business broker?
* What level of involvement did you have post-sale? (Clean break? Short training period? Ongoing consultation?)
* What, if anything, would you change about your experience?
Appreciate any insights. Or if there are other forums/message boards that business owners like to read, I’d be interested in that info too.
