Hardway: Backed into a Corner
Life is full of uncertainties, and when you're navigating the intricate landscape of selling your business, unexpected challenges can and will arise at a moment's notice. What happens when you're backed into a corner, facing issues that simple research can't resolve? A few examples are laid out below.
Things Can Go Wrong and They Can Go Wrong Quickly:
Major problems can materialize fast, catching you off guard and potentially derailing the entire deal. Usually, a product of postponing or avoidance of a minor issue early on. They can accumulate, turning into major roadblocks which will inevitably need to be handled.
Funding Falls Through:
The financial backing the buyer was counting on suddenly disappears, leaving you scrambling to find an alternative.
Unmet Expectations:
If expectations weren't correctly set from the beginning, it can lead to misunderstandings and complications down the road.
Late Retrades:
Price negotiations can take unexpected turns late in the game, putting your deal at risk.
Without the necessary know-how, finding a way out of these situations can be daunting, and the options may seem limited.
