Industry Insight

There are over 25+ million businesses in America, with:

• 98% having fewer than 100 employees
• 97% generating under $10 million in annual sales
• 11+ million businesses projected to be transferred by retiring baby boomers

As America’s population ages, the need for professional business intermediaries grows. VR Business Sales is positioned to lead this shift by helping both new entrepreneurs and seasoned owners achieve their goals through successful business transfers.

The sale or divestiture of a business is one of the most important decisions an owner will undertake. It is a responsibility that VR Business Sales takes seriously when accepting the role of a trusted advisor.

VR Business Sales defines its core business sales as transactions with a value of less than $5 million. As franchisees begin their new profession and start building their business, it is in this segment of the market that most people gain experience. The sale of these types of businesses create consistent cash flow and security.
