Andy and JT welcome you to another episode of The Deal Board Podcast. This week, they bring you Part 2 of a conversation about the top 10 things you want to avoid when putting your business on the market. We start by recapping the first five points from the previous episode before diving into the next five. Starting with unpacking how to sell off old inventory, we discuss what it might look like to get it to a workable level. Next, we remind you just how important it is to take home the money, and describe what it means to be a positive seller. Finally, you'll hear our take on getting your business in the box. Join us today for all this and more!

Quotes:

"You have to walk around, and you have to decide what's personal to you and what really doesn't matter to the business [when selling]." — JT Tatem [0:05:54]

"You have to get your business to the point where it makes financial sense to buy it." — JT Tatem [0:11:47]

"You don't want to go to the market if the price is too low and leave money on the table, that doesn't make sense for anybody, and you don't want to go to market with a price that's too high and you don't get buyers to call or you don't get deals done." — Andrew Cagnetta [0:13:18]
