Discuss choosing a right buyer with broker & business consultant Dan Scherotter

Today we look at the process of selling your business. You may hear of this process referred to as The Deal or the Transaction. Your deal, or transaction, is the culmination of your years of hard work, blood, sweat, and tears. The amount of money you walk away with is dependent on a number of variables.

Finally, Michael and I share our recommendations for steps that you can take to sell, and then integrate successfully once it’s sold.
