Selling Your Business with David King
"Selling Your Business" will help business owners prepare for this major milestone and close a successful sale. I set out the business sale process and provide useful information to guide a seller’s decision-making, before and during the sale process. Selling a business is the American dream – the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, the reward for years of hard work. You must take control of your “exit plan” to make it a positive one. I will describe how to get your business on the right path and complete a successful sale. I have represented companies and business owners in a broad range of industries and M&A transactions as a CPA, M&A attorney and Accredited Business Intermediary.
