Business Sale Coaching, Markoa’s For Sale By Owner Solution

Developed for enterprising business owners interested in keeping control of the business sale process and selling it without traditional brokerages’ high cost or shortcomings. Owners who have the time, skill set, personality, and resolve to overcome the challenges and accomplish a successful business transfer.

The Business Owner’s Challenge

The process of selling a business is complicated, time-consuming, and full of unique challenges that can often fail. It requires a successful methodology, a broad set of skills, and industry-specific resources and relationships to accomplish a ‘good deal done right.’ Business owners who chose to sell their business independently need professional support and all that comes with it to be successful.

Successful business brokerages and intermediaries often ask for upfront fees and 10% – 15% commission with varying versions of reduction for larger transactions. Their cost is expensive and can diminish the quality of retirement or do what comes next. Traditional brokers and intermediaries take control of the sale process, which comes with benefits and shortcomings, some of which can work against you.

Confidentiality and discretion are required throughout the process.

The Markoa Solution

Markoa provides guidance, assistance, resources, and systems to facilitate the sales process from first consideration through post-sale commitments. Our service is confidential and customized to you, your business, and the current market conditions.

We offer business sale coaching and assistance to fit your needs and packaged services for some of the time-consuming or challenging portions of the sales process. You may work with us from start to finish or select specific services when appropriate. We are flexible and here for you when and how we are needed.
