Miami Business Broker, Denis BergerBusiness Brokers, bring the buyers and sellers of businesses together. More business owners nationally choose to use a professional business broker rather than to sell a business themselves, to insure strict confidentiality as well as seeking a qualified buyer. Business owners do not have the time or knowledge to recognize and understand the complexities of selling their business.
As an experienced Miami Business Broker you can rely on me, as an expert trained in the sale of businesses as well as someone familiar with the nuances of selling a business which will prove as an invaluable asset.
If you’re selling, you should understand that the broker is looking for information to help you come up with a fair price for your company. and what are your expectations as to satisfactory terms.
As a seller, a business broker can help streamline everything from pricing your business to marketing to the right buyer or seeking another synergistic business owner.
Here are some things, as a professional Miami Business Broker, I can do for you:
The Business Sale Process
During the process, the Seller’s job is to do what he does best, which is to run daily operations to continue to maximize profits. A Business Broker’s job is to skillfully market your business, locate, screen and educate the Business Buyer’s, negotiate the sale – and to promote confidence during a stressful ownership transition.
To reduce some of the uncertainty of the selling process, a good broker will do all the required groundwork to organize the financial profile of the business.
Come up with a fair market value for your business
If you’re selling or buying you want a broker who has a strong knowledge of current market conditions and competent valuation of your business. The broker can best give you an idea of what the market is currently paying for comparable business and where needed arrange for a formal business appraisal. A broker should be able to explain the different methodologies as to how businesses are valued in the current marketplace. A seasoned Miami Business Broker is experienced in the Miami marketplace
Facilitate the negotiating process
Since selling a business is at least as emotionally charged as selling a home, you’ll benefit greatly from a go-between who can handle all aspects of the transaction while keeping each party cool. A broker can speak more candidly to each party involved in the transaction that they could manage on their own.
Confidentiality about the sale of your business
Strict Confidentiality, as well as establishing the right price, is crucial to the success of any transaction –
As a good broker, you can rely on me to be discrete about the sale of your business. Employees may get nervous if they learn that a business is for sale. Suppliers and creditors may also want to stop doing business with you if word gets out that you are selling.
First & foremost I require the buyer to execute several documents, such as:
Non-Disclosure statement – outlining his/her responsibilities in having access to any confidential information
Buyer Profile, stating background & experience & how it may relate to this situation
Personal Financial statement, stating up front if buyer is capable of not only producing the required cash or down payment but also his/her’s ability to produce efficient working capital to sustain current operations.
Marketing Your Business
Our firm consists of over 40 offices throughout the continental United States. We are able to utilize over 40 different internet sites as well as network with members of many trade associations. Our data base of qualified buyers is vast with many connections to Private Equity firms as well.

Financing & Professional Advisors
An experienced broker will have the knowledge how best to structure each transaction and also the most efficient way to acquire any necessary financing as well as the necessary permits and licenses. With our experience & connections through the years I feel we can recommend a great team of professionals ready & willing to assist in the due diligence & legal process to eliminate any potential risks to you.
