Crosbie - FAQs for Business Owners (Winter 2022)

At Crosbie, we have been selling businesses for over 30 years and have assisted hundreds of business owners.  Through this experience, we have fielded many questions and concerns raised by entrepreneurs about the M&A sale process as well as some common misconceptions, including the following:

• “I don’t need an investment banker.  I have an offer on the table”
• “My customers and employees will find out that the company is for sale”
• “How long will I need to stay on with the business post-closing?”
• “My investment banker needs to know the buyers”
• “Confidential company information will end up in the hands of my competitors”
• “I don’t need an investment banker.  I can run the process with the help of my lawyer and accountant”
