TESTIMONIAL


“After 20+ years in Corporate America, I made the decision that I was going to start my own business or buy a franchise within 18 months.  As a result, I was committed to finding the “right” person – one that I could really trust – to help me transition into the entrepreneurial world.  After interviewing several business brokers and franchise consultants, I was introduced to Anne Barr of Venture Opportunities, Inc. by a very good friend who purchased a franchise thru her in 2005.  I found Anne to be a refreshing change, to say the least, from the other business or franchise brokers that I had been introduced to previously.  Anne’s screening process was very thorough and allowed me to sift thru hundreds of opportunities and focus on the ones that really matched my personality and goals.  Within 7 months, Anne and I had carefully evaluated approximately 15 franchises and businesses and I finally selected Mr. Handyman!  It was the perfect match for me and we opened “Mr. Handyman of the Park Cities” on Monday, October 30, 2006!  I would highly recommend Anne to anyone who is considering making a career transition so she can assist you with the process."
- David S. – New Franchise Buyer

 

THE PROCESS OF SELLING A FRANCHISE

Selling an existing franchised business is much like selling any other business with these differences:

  • Franchised businesses have some intangible value because of the franchise itself
  • Franchised businesses will often bring a higher multiple in pricing
  • Successful franchised business owners have the advantage of attracting both cash flow buyers and new franchise prospects.

There are many complex steps in selling your business.  Anne Barr, Franchise Opportunity Specialist, can walk you through all the steps so you can concentrate on running your business, while we concentrate on finding you the best qualified prospect.  Let us minimize your stress by assisting you in locating the person with the best personality traits, skills and financial capability to take over your business.
