Since Washburn & Associates contacted the seller concerning a buyer that was “looking in the sellers area,” why does the seller pay the commission instead of the buyer?
Buyers contact Washburn & Associates because they know we have a greater understanding of the marketplace, and a reliable consistent attention to the details associated with a new acquisition. We do the acquisition searches and provide a professional analysis of the business at no cost to them. This has lead to strong and ongoing relationships with many repeat buyers. By coming to you with a buyer in hand, we do not waste your time in trying to locate a qualified buyer. Sellers that are serious about selling generally want to get the process under way. We work for you and negotiate on your behalf. We work for the seller to get the best price. Since most Pharmacists are not accustomed to the intricacies of mergers and acquisitions, dealing direct with a buyer may result in a distinct disadvantage to the seller. With our expertise, we level the playing field, and are able to achieve a higher selling price.
