The Successor Buyer and Whether You Should Care

The Successor Buyer and Whether You Should Care

Should you care who buys your business?
Some of you might feel like the business you built should be in the right hands.
Yes, you might be able to find the perfect buyer.
Yes, you should care in one breath.
But only if you are tied to the sale.
How can you be tied to the sale?
1) If you are going to accept an earnout.
2) If clients or information can come back to you, if it’s in their hands.
3) If you own a % of the company still.
Other than that, if they have the cash to buy you out, you should care little about who buys it if you are not tied to the sale.
Most can be set as clauses in an agreement and you can enforce it.
Once you sell a business, it is the buyer’s business.
Of course, they usually respect the seller’s wishes with many things, but it is not yours.
Direction of the company. If you sold, the business it’s not your business anymore.
Who buys it can always be factored in to the price.
And certain protocols can be laid out in an agreement if they are really important.
If something serious like defamation occurs, that is enforceable.
The main thing to understand is that if you want a clean sale, it is really not so important who buys it and what they do with it as long as it doesn’t affect you personally in the future with tangible things – money or real reputation.
Other than that, it is gravy and a bonus who buys it.
If you still own part of the company, then who you deal with in future business and future transactions might be important for you.
