Your business is on the market and you’re looking forward to that glorious day when you can let go of the pressure and responsibilities of ownership. But don’t let those future plans distract you from what’s going on today.
It’s critical that you keep running your business as usual. From making sales calls to developing staff and negotiating routine contracts-keep on keeping on. Deals do sometimes fall through, and you don’t want to damage your business by hitting pause in the process.
As you enter the IOI (Indication of Interest) stage, talk to your advisors about making significant business decisions such as investing in new equipment or creating new management positions. You need to strike a careful balance between protecting your business interests and aligning with buyer-plans.
