Before you buy a service business

  1. Ask how many hours the owner works each week.
  2. Check client contracts and how long clients stay.
  3. Find out if the team will stay after the sale.
  4. Match invoices to bank statements.
  5. Ask where new clients come from.

What makes a good one

Look for
  • Long-term clients on monthly retainers.
  • A team that does the work, not the owner.
  • Written processes for every task.
  • Many clients, none too big.
Watch out for
  • The owner does most of the work.
  • One or two clients make most of the money.
  • Clients with no contracts.
  • Sales that come from the owner's network.

Fair price check

  • Past sales: a median of 28 months of profit.
  • Sellers ask a median of 22 months today.
  • Half of past sales went for 19 months to 33 months.
