Book Description

April 1, 2005
Statistics show that only 20% of all potential business buyers actually buy a business and only 30% of all business owners who try selling their business actually succeed! The reasons behind these statistics vary, but all of the common mistakes of buying and selling a business are covered in this book. Therefore, both owner/sellers and business buyers will be 100% successful in their quest. For this book the author, Peter Siegel, interviewed hundreds of successful business owner/sellers, business buyers, and business brokers to determine what ingredients are needed to succeed in selling or buying a business. He shares all the tips, secrets, and knowledge in this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Overview of the Buying/Selling Process, February 8, 2006
By 
This review is from: Businesses For Sale: How to Buy or Sell a Small Business - A Guide for Business Buyers, Business Owners & Business Brokers (Paperback)
I purchased this book after selling my business, and wish I had had the foresight to buy it earlier. It gives a good overview of the entire process, from both the buyer's and the seller's point of view. You can probably find other books that go into greater detail about topics like business valuation and tax consequences. But this is a good, quick read to get anyone familiar with what to expect during the buy/sell process.
