ANYONE CAN GIVE YOU ADVICE, BUT ONLY AN EXPERT IN THE FIELD CAN GIVE YOU THE BEST ADVICE
That’s why more people are looking beyond the opinions of friends, accountants and lawyers and are turning instead to Pensacola Business Brokers, a professional business intermediary.
THE AMERICAN DREAM
Everyone has a different reason for choosing business ownership. Entrepreneurs want a change in lifestyle with more personal freedom and unlimited profit potential. Others plan to turn small businesses into family operations. Some choose to introduce new products and services through existing operations, and everyone is attracted by estate building and the tax advantages of business ownership.
IT'S IN THE STATS
More than 2,000,000 American businesses change hand each year. The vast majority of all business buyers are first-time buyers, unprepared to meet the complexities of acquisition transactions.
More than 50% of all small to medium size business sales arranged without professional intermediaries result in buyer dissatisfaction.
Whether you’re prepared to invest $50,000 or $50 million, your first question about any business opportunity should be “Why is this business for sale?” Often times, an owner’s motivation is obvious – he or she may be ready to retire or is having health problems. There may be difficulties in a partnership, or a divorce but what if the reasons aren’t so apparent? How can you protect yourself from morning-after "surprises"?
This is where PBB’s professional edge can really make a difference in a successful acquisition. We make every effort to provide pertinent information on a target company’s financial performance, staffing, facilities, equipment, inventory, product lines, customers and market areas served.
More importantly, we assist you in arriving at a realistic analysis of an operation’s strengths, as well as any underlying weaknesses. It is important at the onset to be clear about your objectives and capabilities.
LIFE CHANGING DECISION
If you are like most people, you’ll buy a business only once in your lifetime, with only one opportunity to turn your visions into reality; with one shot at getting it all right or getting it all wrong. When the time is right to invest your resources in a business of your own, consult a PBB professional who stands ready to assist you in that endeavor.
SMOOTH TRANSITIONS
Whether you’re a first time business buyer or a seasoned investor, you can look to PBB for assistance in every phase of the transaction.
PBB intermediaries are accomplished trained business professionals with successful backgrounds in careers ranging from corporate management, business ownership, marketing and sales. PBB consults with professional accountants and lawyers to provide practical expertise in legal, financial and tax issues.
Professional resources, resourceful people and a fundamental commitment to being an entrepreneur, that’s the PBB difference. Please contact us for a confidential discussion about your unique and individual needs.
