Selling your Subshop Franchise, help for Subshop franchisees

BUYING OR SELLING A SUBSHOP STORE FOR THE BEST PRICE - PRICE FAIRNESS OPINIONS, VALUATIONS, BROKERAGE by a Subshop Specialist

How many times have you asked "what is this store worth and what is the best way to sell it or buy it?" As an Accountant, Business Broker, and former multi-unit Subshop Franchisee, I understand the World's # 1 Subshop brand and the current buy/sell market from all perspectives and can help you answer these and more fundamental questions and I have worked in several DA territories with their franchisees.

HOW SUBSHOP FRANCHISEES BENEFIT FROM MY SERVICES:

1. I show you ways to enhance the value and get the highest price for your store.
2. I pre-screen buyers so as not to waste the DA's time with unqualified prospects.
3. I attend to all buyer inquiries and field their initial questions, so you are not bothered.
4. I understand Internal Control and Sales Combo information sheets, remodeling, and compliance issues.
5. With my many years of buy/sell and Subshop experience I provide great insight and a broader perspective to the transaction for buyers and sellers.
6. I am familiar with the Franchise transfer process and can assist with an Accountant's "price fairness opinion", required by the Franchisor, as well as matters concerning Escrows, thereby saving time and avoiding mistakes.
7. You may be looking to buy another store: will you overpay? Or you may want to sell one of your own: will you undervalue it and leave money on the table? What are the dangers of using various " Sales Multiples "?  My Price Fairness Opinion (Accountant's letter) helps resolve these issues and others related to:
   
   • Partnership, Divorce, buy/sell disputes. An independent opinion can help break deadlocks.
   • Death, Trust/Estate, and inheritance matters.
   • Catastrophic illnesses or circumstances requiring immediate action-Arbitration, termination
   • SBA financing. Business Plans, Pension and 401k plan funding
   • Second opinions on anticipated store buy-sell transactions, re-modeling and re-locations
   • Exit strategies, or portfolio consolidation, scenario analysis
   • Evaluations of other franchise brands and Area Development opportunities.
8. As an Independent Consultant I can provide unbiased advice for buyers and sellers, for a win-win outcome.
9. My recent experience with other franchise brands such as, Quizno's, Arby's, Sbarro's, Extreme Pita, Togo's, Denny's, 1-800 Radiator as well as my academic and professional qualifications enhance the wisdom I impart. 
10. I have been a California Licensed Real Estate Agent for 8 years, and I use a Consulting Agreement for all other States. I have been involved in many Sandwich and Subshop transactions across the US, with buyers and sellers.
11. I recast Income Statements and maintain confidentiality all around and as directed.
12. My code of ethics and guidelines in business act as a protective compass for you. (Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and be beneficial to all concerned?)

Let's face it, some Franchisees are so busy with their stores they do not have the time to devote to the sale process, or some are new at the selling game, others bought into one or another Subshop concept at good values or a long time ago, and want to sell when sales and profits are high. Let me help you and your buyers through the process.
