| | |  | Business Buying Fundamentals | | | The advantage of buying a successful business in comparison to starting a new one can be overwhelming. Perhaps the biggest plus is that a huge amount of risk and uncertainty is eliminated. There are not only existing customers, but a track record of what is selling and what isn’t. And, since the basic business infrastructure is already in place, you can focus on improving the existing business, rather than on reinventing the wheel. | |

| | | | |  | Business Financing | | | You've written your business plan and the search is on for seed money to finance everything from business cards to location. But keep in mind that working capital is as important as start-up capital because it's the money you'll need for the day-to-day operation of your business - supplies, employee payroll, rent, utilities and other bills. | |
|
| | | | |  | Business Evaluation | | | Selling a business has two crucial elements: finding potential buyers and negotiating a price. It's essential to make your own estimate of value at an early stage so that you are clear about the value you can expect to realise and the most appropriate methods to manage the sale. | |
