New Jersey Business Broker Offers Distressed Sellers Program
“With the economy showing few signs of a quick turnaround, many struggling business owners will face some very difficult decisions in 2010″, says Rick Fulton.
Business owners are in uncharted waters as sales continue to fall for many, yet expenses continue to rise. Marketing costs are up. Taxes are up. Health care costs are skyrocketing. Competition is fierce and technology brings its own set of challenges.
What should a business owner do if their business is in trouble? Should they try and stick it out until sales come back (and who knows when that will happen)? Should they borrow more money to keep their businesses moving forward? Continue cutting expenses? Lay off more employees? Ask employees to take a pay cut? Or just give up and throw in the towel?
Fulton added, “Many business owners don´t know where to turn or even who to ask for help. They are isolated as they feel no one else can understand the difficult position they are in”.
One possible solution for some of these overwhelmed business owners are cash-rich entrepreneurs looking for “distressed businesses” to buy.
While each of these buyers in the “Distressed Sellers” program will have their own criteria, most are looking for businesses that fit one of the following situations:
1. Going concerns that are not generating enough cash flow to service their existing debt.
2. Going concerns that are running at a break even or negative cash flow.
3. Going concerns that are about to close the doors.
4. Closed businesses, where the Landlord is in possession and looking to sell the assets in place to a new tenant, etc.
