The difference

We're M&A advisors — not business brokers.

Both help you sell. Only one actually runs a process, protects your confidentiality, and negotiates for you at the table.

Traditional broker

  • —Post an ad. Hope buyers show up.
  • —Commission-only. Rushes to close any deal.
  • —Often no financial vetting of buyers.
  • —Little help with structure, tax or terms.
SellBiz

M&A advisor

  • We run a structured sale process, end to end.
  • Small retainer keeps us accountable to you.
  • Every buyer is vetted before they see your name.
  • Deal structure, tax, warranties — handled.
