Sell Your Business Quietly and for the Right Price

The value you’ve built depends on keeping employees, customers, and vendors steady while you sell. We protect confidentiality at every stage and bring you buyers who are qualified, serious, and a good fit to carry the business forward.

Our commission is paid at closing, so we’re motivated by the same thing you are: a successful sale at the best possible price and terms.

Our Business Selling Process

  • Discovery & valuation: understanding your goals and establishing a supportable value
  • Recasting financials: presenting normalized earnings the way buyers and lenders evaluate them
  • Confidential information memorandum: a professional package describing the opportunity
  • Blind marketing: reaching individual, strategic, and financial buyers without revealing your identity
  • Buyer qualification & NDAs: verifying capacity and fit before any details are shared
  • Negotiation, due diligence & closing: price, structure, seller financing, transition, and closing coordination

Deal Structure Matters as Much as Price

Asset sale or stock sale, cash at closing or seller financing, earnouts, consulting agreements, and real estate leases all affect what you actually take home. We help you evaluate every offer on its after-tax, risk-adjusted value, together with your CPA and attorney.

Planning an Exit in a Few Years?

Start now. Reducing owner dependence, cleaning up financials, and documenting systems can meaningfully increase the value buyers will pay. A confidential valuation shows you where to focus.

FAQ

Business Seller Questions

What should I prepare before selling my business?

Gather three years of tax returns and financial statements, year-to-date financials, a list of equipment and inventory, key contracts and leases, and an organization chart. We help you organize these into a buyer-ready package.

Will I need to offer seller financing?

Not always, but a portion of seller financing is common, especially in SBA-financed transactions, and it can increase both the price and the pool of buyers. We help you decide what is appropriate for your situation.

Do I pay anything up front to sell my business?

Sell-side engagements are success-based, with our commission paid at closing. We explain the fee structure transparently before you sign anything.
