As a machinery manager or business owner, you\u2019ll find yourself in situations from time to time where you need to sell one or more assets. The trick to making great selling decisions is to look at three key factors: effort, timing and returns. Thankfully, nowadays, there are plenty of options available to help you sell machinery. And each has its pros and cons.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps Ritchie Bros. is best known for its exciting auctions, but did you know we actually help our customers (tens of thousands every year!) sell in different ways? The good news is that there is an optimal selling solution for each situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1 Sell machinery by yourself<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some businesses that sell machinery regularly need full control over the selling process. They handle incoming buyer enquiries by themselves, negotiate with potential buyers, and take care of the transaction\u2019s paperwork. Classified ad listing websites like\u00a0Mascus\u00a0can be a great fit for you. They attract large amounts of potential buyers, and it\u2019s super easy to get started. You can create an account and start listing machinery immediately. Simply create a new ad, upload photos and videos, write a description, and publish your ad! Being available in 38 languages and with 28 offices worldwide, Mascus gives you access to a broad audience for the best possible deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2 Sell your machinery with assistance (and a minimum price)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t have the time to be involved in the selling process and\/or don\u2019t have enough expertise for a successful sale, outsourcing the sale of your machinery can be an interesting option. At Ritchie Bros., we offer this service with Marketplace-E. You can set a minimum price and choose if you want to sell from your own location or one of our secured yards. Selling on Marketplace-E means we take care of the inspection, listing, buyer enquiries, negotiations, paperwork and payment.
