Business Sales Companies - Unethical Sales Techniques
I would like to bring your attention to the fact that certain companies are targeting small business owners who are 'selling up' in this recession. These companies, such as RTA Business Sales, Meridian and Sovereign, take an 'up-front' fee after just waving the contract at the business owner, get the owner to sign without giving them a chance to read the contract; and then, typically, place just two adverts on a couple of websites. When the business owner gives up and sells through another route, these Business Sales Agents threaten litigation and extort money out of the business owners. I say 'extort' because their contracts have been found, in court, to contain unfair terms.
Just type RTA COMPLAINTS into Google and you will see what I mean...
