THE SEARCH FOR BUYERS

During the marketing stage, the seller’s responsibility is to continue to run the business as if he is going to keep it.  Our job is to safeguard all confidential information provided by the seller, actively market the business, find and qualify all potential buyers and negotiate the terms of the sale. LNT Global has a fiduciary responsibility to the sellers to only show businesses to those buyers that will abide by the confidentiality guidelines.

NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

Potential buyers are required to review and sign a non-disclosure agreement, which outline his/her responsibility in safeguarding the seller’s private data. This occurs before any detailed information concerning a specific opportunity/confidential information is released. LNT Global is committed to protect the confidentiality of the business sale. This is the preliminary step to protecting the seller’s confidential information.

PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT

LNT Global understands that public knowledge of a potential sale can affect the morale, behaviour, attitude and actions of employees, customers, competitors, lenders, suppliers, or investors, and thus the value of the company. We safeguard and release appropriate information only to involved parties.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SELL A BUSINESS?

It usually takes longer to sell a business than a house or a commercial building. Because of the confidential nature of a business sale, a business broker cannot put a For Sale sign on the window. The average time to sell a business is usually between six to twelve months. However, there are exceptions. Some businesses may sell within a month of being put in the market. Others may take several years to attract the right buyers. LNT Global seeks out and talks to buyers everyday. The next one may be just the right buyer for your particular business.
