| Setting the Asking Price | Selling on Your Own Online listings tell you what other owners are asking. You’re left to figure out what comparable businesses actually sold for, which earnings buyers will count, and whether your price will scare buyers off or leave money on the table. | With Titan Business Brokers We review your financials, identify which earnings a buyer can reasonably expect to carry forward, and compare completed sales. That gives us a basis for setting the asking price and defending it when buyers push back. |

| Getting Buyers to Take Your Business Seriously | Selling on Your Own A listing can show revenue and an asking price. If buyers can’t tell what the business earns, why customers keep coming back, or what they’d take over, they may move on before calling. | With Titan Business Brokers We prepare marketing materials that explain what drives earnings, how the business runs, and what transfers to the buyer. We put that case in front of buyers through relevant marketplaces and our network of 4,000+ pre-qualified local buyers. |

| Screening Buyer Inquiries | Selling on Your Own A caller can sound serious and still take hours of your time before you learn they’re just browsing, can’t fund the purchase, or aren’t ready to buy. | With Titan Business Brokers We handle the calls and emails, assess each buyer’s intent and timeline, and verify their financial ability before booking time on your calendar. |

| Keeping the Sale Private | Selling on Your Own A competitor can pose as a buyer. You have to decide what to share, with whom, and when. Once sensitive information is out, you can’t take it back. | With Titan Business Brokers We market the business without naming it, screen for potential conflicts, and require a signed NDA before sharing its identity or financials. We control what each prospect receives and when. |

| Managing Buyer Activity | Selling on Your Own With several buyers in play, it’s easy to lose track of who called, which documents you sent, who toured the business, and who’s waiting for a response. | With Titan Business Brokers We log conversations, documents shared, site visits, and next steps for each buyer. We handle the follow-ups and keep you informed about who’s moving forward and what’s holding others up. |

| Comparing Offers & Negotiating Terms | Selling on Your Own The highest offer may give you less cash at closing or leave more of your money tied up in seller financing. A good headline number can hide terms you wouldn’t agree to on their own. | With Titan Business Brokers We compare what you’d receive at closing, what you’d be owed later, and what could keep each deal from closing. We negotiate price and terms on your behalf. You decide what to accept. |
|---|
| Due Diligence & Closing | Selling on Your Own Once you accept an offer, you’re still chasing documents, answering lender questions, and keeping attorneys and buyers on the same timeline while running the business. | With Titan Business Brokers We manage diligence requests, track deadlines, and coordinate with the buyer, attorneys, accountants, and lenders. When an issue threatens the timeline, we follow up with the people who can resolve it. |

|
| Costs & Fees | Selling on Your Own You put in the time, do the legwork, and pay for marketing and legal work as costs come up, even if the sale never closes. | With Titan Business Brokers No upfront brokerage fee. We handle valuation, marketing, buyer screening, and negotiations. You pay our success fee only when the sale closes. |
