How to Sell a Business

Selling your business is likely the biggest financial event of your life. It should be run like one — a confidential, managed process, not a listing you post and hope. Here is how we sell a business, and the pieces that decide your outcome.

The path, at a glance

1. Prepare & value — recast your financials and get a defensible valuation.
2. Package — build a professional, confidential marketing package that markets the business without revealing its identity.
3. Reach vetted buyers — find and qualify real, NDA-bound buyers.
4. Negotiate — compare offers on price, structure, and terms, and understand the tax side of what you keep.
5. Diligence to close — defend the deal from LOI to closing.

Every step is handled by our Mergers and Acquisitions team, who sell businesses like yours every month and assist on all aspects of the deal up to close. Start with a free, confidential valuation.
