What is the best way to sell IT business?

Question

Electronic commerce

There is a small and stable business for servicing Internet users, which has been operating for more than 10 years. The business is geographically tied (Irkutsk), i.е. there is an office, there is a website through which orders are received. But for more than 3 years there is no time to develop it and devote enough time, moreover, I decided to move to another city.

The business is well-established and makes a profit, but it needs to be developed otherwise the profit will decrease, there is no time for this, as there are other more global projects. The question arose - how best to sell your business? How to evaluate it? What are the reliable web services for these purposes?

Answer 1

I think that if you make a small "presentation" showing income and expenses, as well as changes in these indicators over the past couple of years, that will be enough. Then decide for yourself over what period (in your opinion) this business should pay off and add 15-30% to this figure at your discretion (development potential). Here you will get an estimated cost.

Answer 2

Well, use the standard estimate, 2-3 annual profits.

Answer 3

To be honest, I think you turned to the wrong resource

Answer 4

If I were you, I would analyze ways to sell a business on the Internet. This includes bulletin boards. I would place it on one niche specialized platform for selling a business, on AVITO and TELDERI (here, both online and online businesses are sold and bought).
In general, it is better to understand how investments are made in a business , that is, how and where investors look in order to bear the risks when buying a business. You will find a lot of useful information.
