| Why do people want to become their own boss and run their own business?
Last month we spoke at the Business Show at the Excel, talking about the different ways people can raise finance to buy a business. There are many different ways people can raise finance, from traditional bank loans to forms of alternative finance. But we wanted to focus on the sheer number of people who were looking at taking the leap and buying their own business. We asked Businesses for Sale how many people were looking at businesses, and they confirmed that their site, which has over 62,00 business listings was attracting over 1.5million views per month! That is a lot of people looking at becoming their own boss! At ASC we have countless stories of clients we have helped buy their own business over the years. From the couple who purchased a convenience store in Cumbria, to the person who bought a B&B down in Cornwall, and liked it so much, that we subsequently helped four other members of their family do the same thing! It is nearly the new year, and a lot of people will be making their new year’s resolutions. If yours is to buy your own business, you could do much worse than speaking to ASC about how to kick-start your dream and take the first step in making it a reality. |
