Clean Up, Fix Up For a Quicker Sale

Try to look at your business through a buyer’s eyes to help determine what needs to be done first.

Whenever a prospective buyer is scheduled for a tour, be sure the floor and counters are clean, papers are stacked neatly, boxes are out of the way and papers are filed or discarded.

You should also check the following:

• Is all equipment functional?
• Are chairs broken or squeaking?
• Do doors open and close easily and quietly?
• Is the stock room or cabinet neat and fully stocked?
• Are customer brochures and other materials up-to-date and readily accessible?

Not only will these tips help you sell, they will help your business run more efficiently.
