Tips for Buyers

You can increase your chances of success in buying a business by improving how you communicate with sellers and/or business brokers. It's important to understand that good businesses receive many inquiries through BizQuest, and sellers/brokers are always more inclined to work with buyers who present themselves as serious, motivated, and educated about the buying a business process.

Business brokers will typically require that you sign a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement (NDA) prior to providing more detailed information about the business.. They will also want to know a bit about you: how serious you are about buying a business, what your financial picture looks like, your time horizon to buy a business, etc.

Because of this, it's best to not ask for detailed information about the business just yet. An effective inquiry that's sure to be taken seriously would be something similar to this:

"I am interested in this business. Please send me the necessary non-disclosure and any additional documents to complete so we can discuss it further."

For more on this subject, see this posting from the BizQuest Blog.
