Open the three files behind your sale
You have built the customers, routines and practical knowledge that keep the business moving. A sale starts with showing which parts will continue when you step away.
Annual revenue is a starting point. Supported earnings, customer relationships and the people who deliver the work give a valuation discussion its substance.
The earnings file
Accounts, tax returns and supported adjustments tell a clearer story than an asking price chosen from revenue.
The operating file
Customer agreements, equipment ownership and staff responsibilities show what can transfer.
The handover file
Your lease, licensing questions and transition plans help expose issues before a buyer review.
Start with the work you know best
A service route, a manufacturing shop and a distribution business need different preparation. Begin with the questions closest to your operation.
Three questions before you choose a date
Can someone else run the daily work? Can the accounts explain the earnings? Can important relationships continue under a new owner? A gap in one area gives you a useful place to begin.
Selling the company and owning the building are separate decisions
You may want to sell both, keep the building or explore different timing. A clear lease and realistic rent assumption help the parties understand the operating business.
Use the guide to separate business value from building value before a sale before treating property value as part of a company price.
Local records belong in the plan
Arizona tax accounts and local licenses deserve their own closing tasks. Start with arizona successor tax liability certificate before a business sale. Requirements depend on the transaction and location.
