Are you a franchisee or franchisor with a successful franchise?
Are you considering or decided on selling your franchise business?
At FranchiseOfficer, we can be your best resource
in finding the right buyer. As a result of our core business being
franchise brokering, we have developed a substantial database of
franchise business buyers as well as strategic alliances with many
successful firms focused on business resales all over North America.
Our group also works with thousands of current business buyers
from all over North America every month. Here’s how we can
help you:
Franchisees:
So the time has come for you to move on and sell your franchise.
This is probably one of the most important financial decisions
of your life with the exception of the purchase of your franchise.
The decision to sell your business must not have been easy. After
all, a business becomes an important part of our lives and who
we are. You have seen the business grow under your management and
hard work. Now you are ready to "cash out". At FranchiseOfficer, we
understand how critical it is to handle your business for sale
with respect and care. We can help you through every facet of selling
your franchise. With years of experience involving franchise transactions
both large and small, there is no better firm to help you place
your franchise business for sale.
Franchisors:
As a franchisor you may have corporate or franchise businesses
that you wish to sell off for various purposes. At FranchiseOfficer,
we understand franchising from every perspective. Our expert management,
strategic alliances with leading business brokerages, intermediaries
and merger and acquisition specialists make us a premier company
to work with.
We can even facilitate the sale of your company or help you locate
acquisition or investment opportunities within the franchise arena.
We have ties with the right sources and the ability to create perfect
investment, merger and acquisition opportunities. For example,
we worked closely with a franchisor who was quietly seeking an
investment of $225,000 in exchange for 20% ownership. Today it
is estimated that 20% of that company is worth more than 10 million.
As a result of what we do, we encounter opportunities like the
one described above on a regular basis. Our clients confide in
us and we always maintain strict confidentiality. However, upon
request, we will aggressively, yet inconspicuously. Seek out compatible
suitors. We also have the wherewithal to help fund your acquisition.
