This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully SELLING A Santa Clara County Business:
Keep A Folder Of All Info/Contacts
Keep a folder of all contacts, notes, and paperwork for your business for sale
transaction. Keep a log of all buyers who contact you - get their phone numbers,
email address and keep notes about them (this will come in handy down the line,
trust me). You want to make sure you have backup buyers in case your first choice
drops out during the selling process. Keep all escrow info, purchase agreements,
signed non-disclosure/confidentiality forms, contact phones of CPA\'s, Attorneys,
etc. and other pertinent data/info in this folder!


This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully BUYING A Santa Clara County Business:
Keep The Negotiating & Communications Moving Forward!
Remember - TIME KILLS DEALS. Make sure when you are negotiating the contract,
allocation of purchase price, new or restructured lease, etc. always be moving
forward. Don\'t let any situation sit too long - it will most likely kill the deal!
