I am trying to sell a family-owned restaurant in south Georgia and am
looking for suggestions to help sell it. The restaurant has been on
the market for the past year and we have tried using local brokers but
have not had any luck even after reducing the price.We are also
advertising locally in the newspaper.

The restaurant is doing excellent business currently so there are no
issue with that, I am just looking to retire. I know that there are
several Internet sites that allow you to sell your business but I was
wondering which one is the most effective or if you would even
recommend that avenue?

You might want to try listing it on www.hotel-online.com ; a web site
for hotel and restaurant professionals. Each day subscribers get an
email with the 'daily news' and I know that lots of us check this site
each and every day as part of our routine.

You might also want to try posting the information with some regional
Universities or Colleges that offer Hotel/Restaurant management.
Students, professors, etc. might be interested. You should try the
University of Georgia and Johnson & Wales University, the Miami
campus, at www.jwu.edu.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions. I will try both of those!
