Perhaps you have some choices.For example, your sons or daughters who may or may not be the best qualified to run it.Or your long-standing managers, who definitely are qualified but may not have the funds available to do so.Or maybe your friendly or not-so-friendly competitors, who know you perhaps too well for you to be the best person to negotiate the sale.
