Targeted
Acquisition Program
Our Target Acquisition Program (TAP) can make it easier for
you to find and buy the right business.
If you're in the market to buy a business, you may discover
it's hard to find exactly the right business opportunity.
Researching and locating suitable businesses is time-consuming
and can be frustrating - often other buyers snap up the
best ones as soon as they hit the market.
Or you could end
up in a bidding war against a buyer with much deeper pockets.
But the worst case scenario is you
end up paying a lot of money buying a company that isn't
right for you.
Relax. Buying a business with the help of
an acquisition search expert removes all those hassles,
hurdles, and risks.
The Process
(How We Make Buying a Business a Breeze)
- Submit the Targeted Acquisition Program retainer to
your broker.
- Schedule a private business search consultation with
one of our experienced professionals. A member of our
acquisition
team will spend time with you discussing the type,
location and price of the business(es) you're looking
for. If
you aren't sure, our comprehensive Acquisition Criteria
Worksheet
will help you define the business that suits you best.
- Your
SUNBELT representative conducts an actual search of
thousands of businesses on your behalf and develops
a short
list. We use the information you've given us to zero
in on businesses that match your needs. Even if their
business
isn't for sale, business owners often warm to the
idea of selling when presented with a qualified buyer
who's
genuinely interested in buying a company like theirs.
That way, you're the only buyer in the running -
no competing
bids and no need to rush in with an offer until you're
ready.
- Together you and your SUNBELT representative
review the short list and determine the perfect acquisition
for you.
- Target a business. Research, investigate
and examine with due diligence. Our acquisition search
experts
find businesses
that you wouldn't otherwise have access to. And
we can help with negotiations, legalities, and
finalizing
the
deal, which makes it even easier for you to buy
a business.
- Make an offer, and close your deal!
The Results
You will find a seller you can TRUST and a business
you can be PASSIONATE about for life.
