2014 BizLocal Trend

Well, it's been a while since I've posted on this blog.  My other blogs have stayed very busy, however a lot is happening.

BizLocal.com is now offering an online marketplace for Individual Business Owners to Sell their Business.  Why?  Great question!  The economy has been returning at a pretty solid pace.  Each week, businesses get stronger and stronger.  Many business owners stuck it out through the hard times, trimmed some edges and did well, when they may have been considering retirement about 4 years ago.  These business men and women did the unthinkable, rather than take retirement, and in the wake of a volatile economy, they stayed the course and are now seeing the sun on the horizon.  No, the economy is not perfect, and it may never be perfect.  However, it is back for many businesses!

Buyers have been seeking great businesses to buy into and small businesses that have come through this economic situation are like hardened steal.  They've proven themselves in the hard times, how much better will the perform in a great economy?

We began development on this Business For Sale marketplace, as we found existing marketplaces lacking in clean simple page layouts, responsive design, reasonable feature sets for sellers and effective coding for web marketing of the businesses for sale.

We expect 2014 to be a stellar year!
