This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully SELLING A Merced County Business:
The Business Is Not Sold Until You Have Check In Hand!
Always continue to collect names of business buyers and their phone numbers etc.
even if you are in escrow (40% of all escrows fall out for one reason or another!)
You want to make sure you have a successful deal and a business buyer that is going
to complete the deal. Try to have 2-3 potential business buyer back-ups who are
willing to take the buyers place within the escrow should the current business buyer
drop out.


This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully BUYING A Merced County Business:
Know The Types/Sizes/Locations Of Businesses You Want To Buy
Before you start calling/contacting business brokers and agents make sure you know
what types, sizes, and locations of businesses you are looking to buy. If you seem
uncertain about this to brokers and agents they will not spend a lot of time with
you. There are many more buyers than sellers on the market and brokers/agents like
to work with buyers, who are serious, motivated, and know what they are looking for.
