Selecting the business broker who will not only find the buyer for your business, but who also knows how to assist you through the negotiations and many complex steps of selling your business is one of the most important financial decisions you will ever make. Your relationship with that broker is a team effort. That teamwork should produce a “win” for all parties.

ExploreBiz is a member of the largest business brokerage franchise in Southern California and the largest in the world, Sunbelt Business Brokers Network.

Our team of Broker/Agents has over 100 years of experience in selling privately held businesses.

ExploreBiz has been in business since 1991. We understand that selling a business is a sophisticated process demanding the highest professional standards. We have sold hundreds of businesses for clients in the retail, service, manufacturing, and distribution industries.

KNOW HOW:

ExploreBiz will review your business operation and it's financial condition. We will then use industry proven techniques to assist you in determining a fair value for your business in today's marketplace.

ExploreBiz will guide you through the complicated and time-consuming process of finding the right buyer, negotiating the many details of the sale, and finally closing the sale as quickly as possible.

ExploreBiz will work with the accountants and attorneys involved in the sale so that the various tax and legal issues of the sale are appropriately resolved in a timely manner.

We are also there to help find creative solutions whenever those unexpected problems such as financing, landlord negotiations, lease transfers, loan assumptions and the many other closing details as they arise.

MARKET EXPERIENCE:

ExploreBiz will prepare a profile of your business describing its history, operations and all the other positive attributes. We understand that most privately held businesses prepare their financial information to minimize their tax obligations and we will assist you in legitimately recasting your financial information to show a prospective buyer the true "adjusted net profit" for your business.

ExploreBiz uses many different methods and strategies for attracting serious buyer prospects. Among our methods are targeted direct mail, national and local print and broadcast media advertising, extensive web based advertising linked to USA Today and Wall Street Journal Online plus 4 or 5 more high visibility websites for business listings; it is our experience that places us as the #1 company in terms of marketing your business. Referral networking occupies 20% of the time our founder and CEO spends at the business (he have contacts throughout Southern California and the United States).

FINDING THE RIGHT BUYER:
