SELLING
Is it Time to Sell?
You’ve worked hard on building your business and now you deserve top dollar when selling. At Green Bridge, we’ll work with you at all stages of the selling process. Working with you early in the process we’ll help you prepare both financially and operationally to help you achieve your company’s highest potential valuation. Anyone can help sell your business. But it takes a focused, structured process to prepare your business for its next owner. Let us work together in accomplishing this goal.
​
Most brokers think step one is to quickly show you how much your business is worth to then immediately list it. While exciting, without ever taking the time to truly understand what your business actually does or how it’s positioned in the market, an honest broker could never give you a true valuation. Yes bottom line financial numbers are what we show prospective buyers and base selling price. However, you need a broker who will take the time to understand operations and everyone’s roll, including your own, within the business. At Green Bridge, we don’t just sell your company. Our relationship goes BEYOND the sale. We call the Vail Valley home and want your business to be sold to the right people for a fair price.
Things to Consider before listing your company for sale:
Are the company financials and tax returns in order?
Will I be able to replace my income in the next stage of life?
What tax implications will the sale trigger?
Will my key employees stay on with the company after I exit?
What are some areas of the business that require some added attention and “clean-up”?
At Green Bridge, we foster an environment of honest and open dialogue. Selling your business is a big deal and we promise to listen and fully understand your business. You’ve worked hard and now is not the time to let your guard down. We will be there every step of the way and work with your attorneys, accountants and trusted advisors in securing the best deal for your company.
Ready to Sell?
Now that we’ve prepared your company for sale, we are ready to accurately value it. At Green Bridge, we do thorough research and analysis to present you with a fair, competent valuation. Our objective is to sell your company, to the right person, for a fair price.
Once we determine valuation, we’ll prepare a marketing presentation which we will use for prospective, qualified buyers. Buyers in the Valley want more than just a business, they want a lifestyle to go along with it. How your company fits into the community means more up here than anywhere else. We’ll work with buyers to assess their competence and ability to not only purchase your company, but also be a successful operator well into the future.
Once we have found the right buyer, we’ll handle everything from negotiating the terms of the deal to preparing your business for transfer. We work with your accountants, landlords, attorneys and other stakeholders to create a smooth transaction for all parties.
Once the deal is finalized, our job is not over. We ensure the buyer is well positioned to take over the reigns and succeed. We will also help you in making sure your CPA has all necessary documents to file final tax returns accurately and timely. At Green Bridge, we pride ourselves in being full service and will go the extra mile to make sure this is a fun and exciting process.
