Offers
Selling a Business September 9th, 2009Given the allowance for the prospective buyers to digest what has been presented and then present back to you, you want to see indicative offers.
You should make it absolutely clear that there is a deadline time and date for receipt of indicative offers.
People may come back with a whole range of reasons why they cannot make that deadline, some reasonable and valid and some not.
It does not matter to you – you have a process underway and timescales that you are working to and if people can’t make it then they can’t make it.
He who hesitates is lost !!
