I’ve talked to a lot of business owners who say the same thing:
“Things are going great—I’m not ready to sell.”
I totally understand. When revenue is up, profits are solid, and growth feels easy, it’s natural to want to keep riding the wave. But here’s what many don’t realize:
👉 That wave is exactly when buyers are most interested.
👉 That’s when your business commands top value.
Momentum Creates Premium Value
When your business is performing well, it sends a strong signal to buyers:
They’re not walking into a “fixer-upper”—they’re stepping into a well-oiled machine with cash flow, systems, and momentum.
That’s when you see:
✔️ Multiple offers
✔️ Shorter time on market
✔️ Better price, terms, and leverage
But when you wait—when the business starts to plateau or slip—buyers get cautious. Even if your fundamentals are strong, they ask for discounts. They add contingencies. Your negotiating power shrinks.
I’m Not Saying “Sell Now”… I’m Saying “Know Your Window”
This isn’t about rushing into a sale. It’s about being strategic.
Ask yourself:
– Is your business near peak value?
– What’s the demand like in your industry?
– Do you know what your business is worth today?
Too many owners wait until they’re burned out—or the business slows down—before they start planning. By then, the premium window is gone.
