Are you considering selling your Sarasota business?
They say that good things come to those who wait, but unfortunately when it comes to selling your Sarasota business this is often not the case.

One of Sarasota’s leading business brokers, Gulfstream Mergers & Acquisitions provides the expertise necessary to draw in strategic acquirers, leverage competitive tension and manage the flow of information to negotiate the best possible terms of sale for your Sarasota business. It’s a craft we have spent decades practicing and refining – both in our own businesses and for clients.

How We Sell Your Business in Sarasota
We have a four step process to selling a business in Sarasota that has been developed over the years to allow our client to have a complete understanding of the options that await in a step-by-step, methodical manner.
Step 1: Initial Consultation & Evaluation
- Value Drivers: What are the key benefits and value drivers of your Sarasota business? All are discussed and weighed to deliver you the maximum value.
- Financial Overview: 3-5 year financial review of your Sarasota business with worksheets and/or tax records. Hidden value, your financial projections and growth forecasts.
- Objectives: Do you want a complete break or some on-going involvement with your Sarasota business? How important is a “good home” for your company? How quickly do you want/need to sell your business in Sarasota?
- Motivation: Are you committed to the process and to the goal of finding and closing a transaction with the best buyer in Sarasota?
- Timing: If you see your Sarasota business trending up over the next 3-36 months, it’s the right time to sell. When the outlook is positive, it’s the right time to sell in Sarasota. Buyers will focus on the future return your company will provide.
Step 2: Engagement & Market Preparation
“First impressions are truly important” – this is as true for an acquirer as for any other situation. Before we take your opportunity to market we will prepare a Teaser Document for selling your Sarasota business, a 2-3 minute video and a detailed Confidential Information Memorandum that showcases its unique advantages to buyers on a global scene. Interested buyers are first vetted by Gulfstream before they can receive the video.
Step 3: Marketing the Sarasota Business Confidentially
We obtain a signed Confidentiality Agreement (Non-Disclosure), before any information is released to prospective buyers. Information is provided incrementally as the prospective buyers progress through our extensive vetting process. We pride ourselves on having built great trust with the Sarasota business community.
We are firmly focused on gaining the prospects interest. Our goal is to progress the prospects to the next stage and have a meeting. We can help plan how to get the right messages across, control the meetings and deliver the key features and benefits of your Sarasota company.
Step 4: Negotiating and Sale of Your Sarasota Business
With the vast majority of our deals for business sales in Sarasota being financed by lending institutions, we work closely with the lenders to ensure that the deal is funded on time and without drama.
