The purpose of
this survey is to provide a qualitative benchmark as to
the sale-ability of a company. A quantitative analysis
is equally as important in determining sale-ability.
There may be other variables that are not taken into
account which may adversely impact the results of this
benchmark. Weightings assigned are based on averages.
The actual weightings may vary for your company. An
advisor will call you to arrange a convenient time to
deliver the survey results. If you would like Sunbelt to
perform a complete analysis based on the specifics of
your company, including a quantitative analysis, please
inform the Sunbelt Advisor.
