Timing Matters

Knowing the right time to sell your business is crucial for maximizing its value and ensuring a smooth transition. Timing can significantly impact the sale price, as market conditions, industry trends, and your business's financial performance all play a role. Selling during a peak in your industry or when your business is experiencing strong growth can result in a higher valuation. Additionally, personal factors such as retirement plans or a desire to pursue other opportunities can influence the timing of a sale.

When To Sell A Business?

Transworld and specifically AJ Ramsey were terrific partners in our transaction. We were well informed throughout the process and their guidance was critical to our success at every stage. Early on AJ was able to analyze our financials, review our business practices and records and then recommend specific changes needed to better position our company for sale. During the search process the vetting of potential buyers by AJ and his team was a critical service which allowed us to keep running the business and not be distracted by anyone other than a serious and capable buyer. Once we were engaged with a buyer and throughout the due diligence and negotiation phases AJ played a key role not only managing expectations but keeping the deal moving forward. There is no doubt our successful transaction was due to AJ's guidance, professionalism and knowledge of the acquisition process.

North Carolina Grading Contractor Owner

Tony and Jarma are a world-class team to work with. My husband and I worked with them as a buyer. Their process matched us with a perfect business out of state, but in the region that fit our desired lifestyle. They communicate well and often, providing unbiased advice through the entire transition. We completed a transaction during the COV-19 pandemic and their professionalism and constant flexibility allowed us to close the deal, with a structure to overcome evolving challenges. After closing, they stay engaged in your business, displaying their genuine care in successful business transitions. I highly recommend working with Tony and Jarma if the opportunity arises.
