Buying A Small Business
Looking at buying a small business?
Buying a business can be a smart investment, but it’s different than starting one from scratch.
In order to buy a small business, you’ll likely need capital to pay for:
- Acquiring fixed assets such as shares, real estate, or equipment
- Intellectual property or copyrights
- Marketing & communications
- Training & certifications
- Client lists
