How do you sift the gems from the gravel when buying small businesses? You can’t. Or can you? The temperature gauge for a seller is: How they respond to a "full" offer. It's a simple test that can reveal the seller’s true intentions. When you put in an offer, you force the seller’s hand. They have to decide “yes” or “no”. Then, gauge their response: 1. They reject your offer 2. They accept your offer without negotiating 3. They accept your offer but try to negotiate better terms The third response shows they're interested in selling and worth engaging with further. So, if you want to buy a small business, put in a full offer. It’ll save you time, energy, and money.
