When it came time to sell their business, less than half (43%) of all business owners planned ahead. What that means is that most business owners wait for some kind of trigger before they go to market. Those triggers are often negative in nature, stemming from a family health issue, conflict, or (most commonly) burnout.
Unfortunately, that often means business performance is on the decline. Or, at the very least, it means the business owner hasn’t had time to make specific changes that will better position a business for sale.
