Why Most Businesses NEVER Sell (And How to Avoid That Trap)

According to the Exit Planning Institute - 80% of small and mid-sized businesses NEVER sell.

- The company is not appealing to investors.
- The company cannot run without them.
- Or, the market gets flooded with too many businesses at once.
Over 12 million Baby Boomer-owned businesses are expected to hit the market soon (entrepreneur.com). That means more competition. More low ball offers. More deals falling apart.
