Over many years of evaluating acquisition targets alongside searchers, I’ve found that certain questions tend to apply more often than not. I’ve presented each of these FAQs in today's episode, in hopes that they play a small role in how you structure your own due diligence process, and in turn how you think about the relative merits and risks of the opportunity in question. If you're a buyer, the list that follows can be thought of as a starting point for “Commercial Due Diligence 101”. If you're a seller, you should be prepared to address each of these questions and information requests if you're ever planning to sell your small to medium sized business. Please enjoy!
