Cash Flow includes the owners salary and benefits, depreciation, and other non-cash items.

Why do people sell businesses? Selling a business that you have built and managed is one of the toughest decisions you will make. We know what it takes to build a successful business. We have been there ourselves. You may be considering selling the business because you are ready to retire, want more time with your family, would like to relocate, or are ready for a new challenge. If you’re ready to make a change for any reason, its better to sell the business while your motivation to run it is high and therefore the business maintains its value. Contact Us Today We would like to speak with you for a no cost consultation to determine your needs and discuss how Synergy Business Brokers can help you sell your business.
