I have to agree with Hollis. This is just not your average business environment; there are just too many variables to expect to get a multiple like 3X - especially from a pure financial buyer. 6 -12 months is not a bad rule of thumb, although a strategic buyer might be willing to pay more if the target creates synergies with their other holdings. That said, I certainly wish you luck. If you can get that that kind of price that's great.
