“Make decisions quickly” is the advice Chris Campbell, founder and CEO of Review Trackers, gave business owners in a Forbes article last month. “Just pull the ripcord and don’t spend any more time over-thinking things. More often than not, you already know what you will decide anyway.”
If you know you’re going to sell your pawn business, what’s stopping you from setting the process in motion? Do you have legitimate concerns, or do you simply have a fear of the unknown?
When it comes to selling a pawn shop, it’s easy to come up with reasons to avoid jumping in feet first, but if your gut is telling you that selling is probably the right move, listen to it. Take action.
Here are three actions steps you should take right now:
- Determine the selling price you need to achieve in order to meet your future goals.
- Uncover any potential setbacks and determine what it will take for you to head them off at the pass long before you reach out to potential buyers.
- Obtain a pawn business evaluation.
When you’re able to look at facts rather than merely make conjectures, it not only becomes much easier to determine whether or not it is truly in your best interest to sell, but easier to determine precisely what the selling/closing process will entail.
Finding out precisely what the selling/closing process will entail now is certainly preferable to spending months, or even years, asking yourself the same questions over and over again and just guessing at the answers. Spare yourself the agony of constantly asking yourself what it is you might have to deal with as a seller by arming yourself with solid information today.
A pawn business evaluation performed by a reputable third party with experience in the pawn industry may provide you with all of the information you need to set your fears aside and start doing what you need to do now to make the selling/closing process go as smoothly as possible.

Keep in mind that you’re probably not going to sell your pawn business overnight, particularly if you’re dealing with multiple owners, partners, investors, and shops. The sooner you start preparing to sell your pawn business, the sooner you’ll be able to reap the rewards.
