Why Use a Route Sales Service?

Route Sales Service – How We Can Help

Thank you for visiting our site TheRouteExchange.com.  This post will explain why you should use a route sales service to find your own route or find buyers for a route you are selling.

Reasons to Use a Route Sales Agent when Selling

  • Save Time
    • Marketing your route can be extremely time consuming.  Creating marketing materials such as listings and advertisements can take several hours.  You will also spend countless hours communicating with any leads that you do find.  Most sellers simply list their route for sale through websites like craigslist.  Unfortunately the leads generated from craigslist are often unqualified from a business and/or financial stand point.  Most sellers end up going through countless phone calls and emails only to realize none of their leads are serious buyers.
  • Less Effort
    • Route sales services like The Route Exchange specialize in qualifying buyers.  Our service acts as a third party and can request non-disclosure agreements, non-compete agreements, proof of funding and other qualifying materials.  This saves the route seller the time and headaches of dealing with unqualified buyers.
  • Get the Best Offer Possible
    • Our entire business is devoted to finding qualified buyers and connecting them with route sellers.  We create professional listings, advertisements and have lists of pre-qualified buyers.  A route service will get you the best price possible for your route by creating as much interest as possible in your business.
  • There is No Risk
    • The Route Exchange has no upfront costs.  As a seller you owe nothing to our service unless one of our leads actually purchases your route.  You can market the route through your own efforts and cancel our agreement at any time.

Reasons to Use a Route Sales Service when Buying

  • Expert Advice and Insight
    • We work on routes for sale all day every day.  We used to own our own routes as well.  As a third party we can provide valuable insight on each route opportunity.
  •  Third Party Funding
    • It is extremely difficult to find financing for route businesses.  We have established strategic partnerships with third party funding companies.  These funding programs are based on personal credit and nothing else.  Submit a financing request if you are in need of additional capital.
  • Updated Records and Information
    • We work with each individual seller to make sure we have all relevant information on each route.  Requests for additional information can be submitted to our service and we will work with the seller to compile any necessary information.
