By buying an existing business you may reduce your risk of failure and maximize your opportunity for success. For instance, there are a number of reasons to consider the purchase of an existing business, such as:

Purchasing an existing business includes the processes, procedures and a proven business concept.

Existing businesses generally have an established customer base and recurring revenue and cash flows. Therefore, you do not have the costly start-up phase experienced when starting a new business;

  • There are opportunities to learn from existing operators;
  • A proven market for a product or service exists;
  • You are purchasing a brand name in the marketplace;
  • Opportunities for improvement. Many businesses have opportunities for improvement that require new energy and perspectives to employ, resulting in increased profits to the purchaser.
  • For many organizations, their most valuable asset is their employees. By purchasing a business, you acquire manager and staff who can help you succeed.
  • How to find a business that will be successful for you

    Know Yourself You must start with a self-examination and identify your strengths, weakness and what your objective is post-acquisition.

  • Do you want to be in charge of sales?
  • Do you enjoying being hands-on and completing the job or do you want to motivate a team for success?
  • Do you have financial acumen, or will you require assistance to monitor and evaluate a businesses performance?
  • How much time to you want to dedicate to the venture.
  • No matter where your strengths and weaknesses lie, the key is to know and understand those so you are able to identify the right opportunity for yourself.

    Set Realistic Financial Expectations

    Before buying a business, you need to ensure that it will be able to generate enough free cash flow to support your personal needs. Therefore, it is important to not only understand what free cash flow the business can generate, but also, what after-tax cash flow you require to sustain you and your family.

    Start a business wish-list

    Identify target industries, locations, size, your expected role and time commitment and your budget. You may not get everything you want, but it is important to identify your goals and the business characteristics you can be flexible on and those that you cannot.
