This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully SELLING A Butte County Business:
Confidentiality Agreements Are Important
Have all potential business buyers sign and date a Non-Disclosure/Confidentiality
Agreement before giving out any info. Make sure potential buyers understand how
important it is to keep the sale of the business confidential and that there are
legal ramifications if they don\'t.


This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully BUYING A Butte 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.
