This email came to me the other day.
Hi George,
I’m in my mid-50s and have been running a successful, profitable business for over 20 years. It’s been good to me—helped put my kids through school and given me a comfortable life—but now I’m ready to sell it and retire.
Recently, though, a couple of potential buyers showed interest, but after some initial conversations, they either ghosted me or walked away without giving any real feedback.
It’s got me worried—what if my business isn’t as valuable as I thought?
Or worse, what if no one wants it?
How do I turn this around? How do I make my business attractive to buyers so I can retire on my terms, without feeling like I’ve wasted decades of hard work?
Looking forward to your advice.
Best regards,
Hank
