What happens when the right buyer wants you to stay with the business longer than you planned? In this episode of The Ins and Outs of Selling a Business™ , Keith Dee discusses one of the most common challenges business owners face during negotiations: extending their post-closing transition period. He explains why buyers often require sellers to stay involved longer, how that request impacts deal structure, and why it doesn't necessarily mean giving up the lifestyle you've worked so hard to create. If you're considering selling your business, this episode offers practical insight into balancing your personal goals with what buyers need to complete a successful transaction.
