Hello r/smallbusiness community,

I’m curious about the thought process and initial steps that small business owners take when considering selling their business. Specifically, I’m interested in who you would turn to first for guidance or information. Do you consult with your accountant, or perhaps start by researching business brokers online?

I’m looking to gather diverse perspectives on how small business owners approach this significant decision. Whether you’ve already gone through the process of selling a business or are currently contemplating it, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

Please share your experiences, strategies for researching a sale, and any tips you might have for fellow entrepreneurs navigating this journey.

Thank you for sharing your valuable insights
