If you’re a business owner in Georgia thinking about selling in the next 12 to 36 months, understanding what today’s buyers are actually looking for can make or break your deal.
Buyers in 2025 are smarter, more cautious, and heavily data-driven. They aren’t just buying your cash flow—they’re buying your systems, your people, and your visibility in the market. Here’s what we’re seeing every week:
-
Consistent Financials – No buyer wants to guess. Clean books, clear trends, and verified seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE) are critical.
-
Owner Independence – If the business revolves around you, buyers will walk. Delegated operations and documented processes increase value and ease transition risk.
-
Recurring Revenue – Whether it’s contracts or loyal repeat customers, predictability sells.
-
Strong Online Presence – Buyers will Google you. A weak digital footprint is a red flag. This includes your reviews, your website, and your business reputation.
-
Market Position – They want to know how you stack up against competitors and how difficult it would be to replicate your business from scratch.
We help sellers position their business the right way to attract these serious buyers. The earlier we talk, the more leverage you have.
