This Week\'s BizBen.com Tip For Successfully SELLING A Los Angeles 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 Los Angeles County Business:
Make An Offer If You Like A Business
Too many buyers are timid when buying a business and not willing to \"pull the
trigger\" and sign a purchase agreement to start the process of buying a business.
Remember sign a purchase agreement there will be a Due Diligence period with
contingencies that will have to be met before the deal is closed. If those
contingencies are not met or the books and records are not exactly as represented
you are in most instances able to pull out of the deal - make sure you have all
contracts/agreements reviewed by an attorney before signing.
