One of the most critical documents that a business owner needs is a Market Valuation Analysis (MVA) report of the business. Having this information allows the business owner to have greater positioning for business operations such as:

• Utilizing the report as a benchmark value to analyze the business, operations, tax reporting, and strategic planning for the future
• Strengthening and enhancing banking relationships and loan negotiations for both business and personal lending by having a documented Financial Statement 

It is equally important to be aware of the Buyer's needs and perspectives. This would include:

• Reviewing a business from the eyes of a prospective buyer
• Pre-qualifying a business for a preferred SBA loan for a buyer or an owner

Additionally, a business owner's professional team (Attorney, CPA, Financial Planner, etc.) should use the information to provide services and strategies that include:

• Maximizing vendor and supplier terms

By working with BBN, we have access to the nationwide network database of sellers and qualified buyers, all under controlled conditions. These conditions are in place to protect the confidential nature of the listing and selling process.

The process of selling or buying a business requires professional attention that most business owners are not prepared to handle. As a broker, we will save business owners and buyers money by avoiding costly mistakes.

We will also develop a confidential master Business Profile for buyers to better understand the sellers' business. This is done to address the questions posed by diverse and sophisticated buyers. By doing this, sellers better position their businesses in the market place.
