There comes a time in the life of every business owner when you need to move on to something new, retire, or let your business go to someone with new energy and ideas.
As a business advisor, I always have qualms about recommending this move, because the process of selling your business can generate more pain and loss than continuing to run it yourself.
Since I’m not an expert in this area, I was pleased to see a new book, “Exit Rich,” by a couple of leading authorities on how to do it right, Michelle Seiler Tucker and Sharon Lechter. They not only focus on the positives, but include some succinct advice on what not to do.
More important than what to do when selling your business, is to know what not to do! For starters, don’t share your proprietary information without signing an NDA.
