Preparing to sell your business

Introduction

Selling a business is likely to be the largest and most important financial deal any business owner will ever make. For many owners, selling the business they've spent years building up can be emotionally difficult. Unless you have sold a business before you will have no experience to draw on and won't know what to expect.

This guide outlines the main options available and will help you decide what is best for you and your business. It also covers a few of the basic things which can be done to make your business attractive to potential purchasers and how to find the right advisers.
