Right Time To Sell A Business In Arizona?

As a Business Broker in the Phoenix metro area I get the opportunity to speak and interact with a lot of small business owners. The general consensus that I'm currently hearing is that most small businesses in this market are currently seeing sales down anywhere between 20 to 40% from the previous years 1st quarter. So, if you are a business owner experiencing similar negative results so far this year you can take some comfort in knowing that you are definitely not alone. In fact I would argue if your sales are flat or off by less than 20% than comparatively speaking you are doing well in this current environment.

The other sentiment I am hearing is that some business owners believe this a not a good market or the right time to list and sell a business in Arizona. Its hard to argue that these are not incredibly challenging economic times, but I believe there are some benefits to selling now if you own an established business with good records including and desirable market niche:

• Lots of qualified buyers in the market place looking to buy an established business to replace a lost job or supplement retirement funds. Buying an existing business is an attractive option because its a well known fact that buying a business is a lot less riskier than doing a start-up.


• Low inventory of good existing businesses currently available for sale. Eventually this market and economy will straighten itself out. When it does there will more than likely be a flood of "business for sale" listings hitting the market at more or less the same time potentially making it harder to find a buyer.

So if you are debating whether its the right time to sell your Arizona business, Please feel free to contact me now (602-292-0553) for a free (completely confidential) and quick business valuation of your existing business or company in the Phoenix-metro area. With just a few simple and direct questions I can often tell a business owner instantly over the phone whether I believe their type of business has a decent chance of selling even in this current market.

How To Form An LLC In Arizona?

How do I form an LLC IN Arizona?I get asked this question quit often from people who are either thinking abut starting or buying a small business in Arizona.

There are basically 2 options: you can either contact a lawyer or an accounting firm like Cl And Company in Tempe and have them handle it for you for a fee, (that's what i do). You can call CL And Company at 480-831-5260, and ask for either Charlie or Julie. They are CPAs who specialize in working with small business owners in Arizona and I highly recommend them.

The other option is can go to the State of Arizona corporation commission web site and do it your self. This page on their web site gives you a quick idea of the fairly simple procedure (including doing a name search to check availability) and access to links to the download the forms you need to fill out and submit to their office for approval.

As far as costs for filing an Arizona LLC, its currently $50.00 for a standard filing and $85.00 for an expedited filing. As far as how long it will take to process your AZ LLC filing, their web site say currently an expidieted filing can take 3 to 5 days, and a regular filing over 2 weeks.

Arizona Lenders See SBA Loan Opportunities Emerging

This recent article in the Arizona Republic talks about how some small community banks in Arizona across the USA who once avoided getting involved with SBA loans because they were to difficult are now rushing to become SBA lenders because of special new incentives and to service emerging opportunities that the stimulus package may generate.

According to the article,"That could mean new financing options for entrepreneurs, particularly in metro Phoenix's fringe suburbs and Arizona's rural communities, at a time when many large banks have shut the door on less-experienced loan applicants." The article also notes that SBA loan volume in Arizona is currently down 62% over the same 1st quarter time period of last year, and that 25 SBA lenders in the AZ market have disappeared because of failures or mergers.

Starting A Business In Arizona?

Are you an entrepreneur thinking about starting a new small business in Arizona?

Consider this option first:

I would never want to dissuade someone from pursuing their dream of becoming a small business owner, but before you begin the process of getting your start-up off the ground I would encourage you to find and research listings of established Arizona businesses for sale in similar categories.

If you need income now, (most new small businesses and franchises are not profitable until their second year of operation) are concerned about the risks of starting a new business, buying a established business with a verifiable track record is widely regarded as a very effective way to minimize your risk of failure, especially in uncertain economic times.
