The secret to successful business selling is… Price

Selling Your Online Business


Online shopping has increased dramatically in recent years, boosted by the unforeseen pandemic - EMF have dealt with a good number of sales of online businesses. Such is the popularity of the sector that when an online business comes on to the market considerable demand is experienced and we have found that sales are quickly achieved.

The popularity of online businesses stems from being able to work from home or premises enjoying low overheads as they do not need to be on the traditional High Street. Additionally, they often offer flexible working hours to tie in with the owner’s lifestyle.

When valuing an online business there are a number of factors that need to be taken into consideration such as the type of product being sold and storage space required, how quickly the products can be obtained to replenish stock, how up-to-date the website is and whether it can be maintained by the owner or needs an IT company to be involved and whether the sales are mainly being achieved via the website or from Amazon/Ebay.

When the time is right for you to sell your online business, it pays to take the advice of an experienced business transfer agent.
