The likelihood of selling a business is often determined by external factors in the marketplace. Here are eight influences on how easy, or difficult it might be when selling a small business. Peter Siegel (866-270-6278), BizBen Network Director discusses these factors in a BizBen Blog post.

May numbers have started quickly over the first couple weeks - 586 sold small businesses - lots of spillover from last month's April numbers. Approximately 323 California small businesses were reported sold by small business owners, business brokers, and agents last week in California.  BizBen and Peter Siegel, MBA the Director of the BizBen Network has compiled the BizBen.com Index since 1998.

A question many small business owners/sellers ask: how do I sell my business without getting sued, isn't a subject just for discussions with lawyers. A seller can take precautions before and during the sellling process to reduce potential legal problems. Peter Siegel with BizBen.com discusses this topic.

The final part of the business for sale transaction is the escrow and bulk sale process.  Peter Siegel, MBA with BizBen.com answers questions and describes the escrow and bulk sale process in relation to buying and selling California small businesses. Go to the latest BizBen blog / article about the escrow and bulk sale process and see what's involved in closing a deal.
