WHY CONSULT WITH A CERTIFIED BUSINESS INTERMEDIARY? WHY USE SCARBOROUGH?
As a business owner you are an expert at running your business but may not be as knowledgeable about the selling process. A Certified Business Intermediary (CBI) is a trained expert in the selling process and can assist you, the business owner, to reach your goal of a successful transaction.
WE WILL:
FACILITATE
Continue to move the process forward with qualified buyers, financing resources, and ancillary associations to the deal, such as, CPAs and attorneys. Procrastination and delay are critical factors when structuring a deal. We are in a better position to perform this function and allow you to continue to focus on operating a profitable business which will command a higher selling price.
NEGOTIATE
Establish a strong negotiating position without compromising the goodwill and relationship between the principal parties. Selling a business is often emotional. This will increase the opportunity to receive “the best price” for the business.
SHARE RESOURCES
Share our established relationships with professional organizations which are required to complete the transfer of ownership. These relationships will prove to be extremely beneficial to you and the buyer.
MAINTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY
Preserve the confidentiality during the process of marketing the business and only share information on a “need to know” basis. You could experience disastrous results by “leaking” that the business is for sale. Employees, customers, suppliers and competitors’ relationships could be damaged causing an adverse condition hurting the potential sale.
ADVISE
Provide strategic information regarding market timing, market conditions, market price, financing options, structuring the transaction and other information that is advantageous to you, the business owner.
