Business for sale ( probably!)

[Treesinsussex]

I may, later this year be selling my business in order to concentrate on another project. We have been established since 2004. The buyer would get all tools, machinery and truck etc, my client database, my email, newly rebuilt website, checkatrade account, my phone numbers, any work booked in for the future and maybe even carry on the rent at my yard ( good and cheap and you can have fires....). Im not selling bits individually.

 

I know its a bit of a funny world selling a service business. Would be great for a quick start into the industry or as a way to expand an existing operation if you are allready a tree firm or a similar trade looking to diversify.

 

We are based in sussex and turnover 120k plus, mainly domestic clients with a few commercial bits.

 

Bit scared as this is a big part of my life but, 'nothing ventured nothing gained' and all that!! [emoji33] [emoji51]

Good luck with the sale mate.

Thank you. Hopefully the right person is out there somewhere. Think I need to correct my emojis on my orignal post, they are way different to what I chose, haha!

good luck with sale. Equipment aside I would expect maybe £2-3k for the goodwill side. one man bands are just not worth any money unfortunately.

Value of long term contracts is your most valuable aspect in a sale. Value per year X years remaining PLUS any clauses for renewal/extension.
