What to Expect When Selling Your Business

Selling a business typically takes many months, depending on industry, size, desired sales price and preparation. Brokers streamline this journey so you can stay focused on running your business while they manage the sale process.

1

Your hard work, effort and investment should command the best possible price for your business. Your Transworld business broker will help you analyze your company and place it in today’s market. Using reliable business valuation techniques, we’ll work together to determine your listing price.

2

Frequently Asked Questions

What is my business worth?

When thinking about selling your business, it's natural to first wonder, "How much can I sell my business for?" Business valuation is top of mind for all of our sellers. With experience completing valuations for a large range of business sizes and industries, we’ll look at:

  • Fair market value: The price at which the property would change hands between a buyer and a seller, when neither is under compulsion and when both obtain reasonable knowledge of relevant facts
  • Intrinsic value: Stock values that investors would consider
  • Fair value: Legal standards to value
  • Investment or strategic value: The value to specific buyers

Can I sell my business without a broker?

Yes, but selling on your own means managing the entire process all while running your business. Without market insight and a structured process, owners often misprice their business, attract unqualified buyers, or risk exposing sensitive information.

A business broker simplifies the process by protecting confidentiality, bringing qualified buyers to the table, and guiding negotiations and deal structure. While selling independently may seem cost-effective, professional representation often helps owners sell faster, reduce risk, and achieve a stronger overall result.

It's Never Too Early to Start Planning

Early planning creates options — whether you want to sell soon, prepare for a future exit, or simply understand your business’s current value. Working with a business advisor early allows you to take a proactive approach rather than reacting to a deadline, burnout, or unexpected life event.

An advisor can help you understand what buyers look for, identify value drivers and risk factors, and create a clear roadmap to maximize value when the time is right. Even if selling isn’t immediate, early planning often leads to a smoother sale, stronger offers, and better terms.
