INDEPENDENCE, Ohio, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, SellYourWay.org announces the launch of Insight Exchange, a dynamic, new forum where small business owners can go to get their questions answered about the business sales process by industry experts – qualified business brokers. SellYourWay.org is an education and awareness portal for small business owners powered by The International Business Brokers Association® (IBBA), the largest international not-for-profit association for business brokers.
“The IBBA® is a community of business intermediaries dedicated to providing education that empowers business owners to make informed decisions on buying and selling businesses.” – Emily Bowler, Executive Director, IBBA®Post this
The business sales process is complex. Most small business owners have never sold a business before. Many have spent years building their companies with growth, not selling in mind. According to an IBBA 2023® research study, only 48% of those who have considered selling someday have an exit plan. Entrepreneurs have questions about how and when to start preparing for a sale, and what the process entails.
Here is how it works:
- Business owners can ask any questions they may have.
- Their questions and the responses are monitored and approved by site administrators before they are posted on the site.
- Users receive notifications when their questions or answers are received, approved and when any responses are posted to their entries.
- Visitors can search the forum for keywords to find any existing discussions on their topics of interest.
- They can also view the history of the questions they have personally asked or answered, and the status of each item – approved, pending approval or rejected.
The Insight Exchange forum is available to registered members of SellYourWay.org. If you are not a member already, you will be prompted to register when you submit a question or answer. Membership, which is free-of-charge, also provides access to exclusive white papers, educational articles on small business sales and the services that business brokers provide to manage the entire process.
