Buying a business:
Finding and approaching suitable target businesses
There are various ways that you can find businesses for sale, including:
- advertisements
- through the grape vine, by speaking to your business contacts
- by involving a professional.
At Cassons, we can help you to find a suitable business by discussing with you the characteristics of businesses that you are looking for, and then using our databases and research capabilities to identify potential targets.
Once you have identified a potential target company, you need to approach them to register you interest. Alternatively you could ask us, as your adviser, to make the approach on your behalf, which would mean you could remain anonymous at this stage.
