Selling your business is more than a financial transaction—it’s the transition of something you’ve built, nurtured, and poured yourself into. We understand that, and we’re here to help you do it the right way, with respect, discretion, and strategy.
With decades of industry expertise and a nationwide network of qualified buyers, we offer sellers a process that is thoughtful, tailored, and proven.
✅ Experienced Brokers Who Truly Listen – We’ve walked sellers through nearly every scenario imaginable. We understand the nuances, and we tailor our strategy to you.
✅ Nationwide Exposure – With a national platform and local market knowledge, we attract the right buyers no matter where your business is located.
✅ Confidentiality First – We protect your business identity and sensitive information every step of the way.
✅ Warm, Transparent Communication – Our clients tell us our personal approach is unlike anything they’ve experienced in this industry. We build real relationships.
✅ Hands-On Guidance Through the Entire Process – From valuation to close, we manage every detail while you focus on running your business.
Our process is designed to protect your interests and find the best opportunity for your unique goals:
We start with a private, in-depth discussion to understand your goals, timing, and what makes your business special. This is more than just numbers—it's about your story.
Our team will assess your business and help you understand what it's truly worth in today’s market. We provide honest, data-backed insight—no inflated promises.
We create a confidential business profile that highlights your company’s strengths while protecting your identity. We’ll help you gather the key documents buyers will want to see.
We present your business only to serious, pre-vetted buyers. Every prospect signs a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before seeing sensitive information. You stay in control of the process.
When a buyer is genuinely interested, we coordinate a confidential meeting or call so they can ask questions and understand the business directly from you—with us by your side every step.
When an offer comes in, we guide you through the negotiation process—balancing price, terms, transition period, and other factors. Our job is to maximize your outcome.
Once you’ve accepted an offer, the buyer will perform due diligence. We coordinate this phase to minimize disruption to your business and maintain momentum toward a smooth closing.
We work closely with attorneys, escrow firms, or closing agents to ensure all paperwork, taxes, and transfer details are handled properly. You get paid. The buyer takes over. Everyone wins.
You don’t need to have all the answers—that’s what we’re here for. Whether you’re ready to sell now or just starting to consider it, our experienced advisors are here to guide you, answer your questions, and help you explore your options.
Business Owners who have sold a business in the past will likely tell you it is long, stressful process. Selling your own business can actually hurt the value of your business as it takes your focus away from the day to day operating of your business at a critical time when you should be increasing or at least maintaining your current business. When a Business Broker assists you in the process it can pay off in more ways than just the price obtained. Business Brokers will help properly value your business, reach out to buyers they already have, reach a larger number of new buyers, allow you to continue running your business rather than taking your focus away, maintain confidentiality and most importantly assist with the closing of your transaction based upon experience and training. The most common mistake potential Sellers make is comparing the selling of their business to selling a house. Unlike realtors, we keep your listing entirely confidential, and work with you each step of the way until we sell your business.
With unsurpassed experience since 1994, offices across the U.S. and some of the most highly trained Business Brokers in the industry Biz Brokers Group is the “Clear Choice” when it comes to choosing a Business Brokerage to represent you. Our Business Brokers are experts in the field of business valuation, business sales, business marketing and buy/sell negotiations to satisfy both buyers and sellers alike.
Unlike the sale of a home or even commercial building businesses do not have a “for sale” sign. Business Sales must be kept confidential; all buyers are required to sign a NDA (Buyer Confidentiality Agreement) prior to detailed information about your business being provided. This helps to prevent employees, suppliers, customers and competitors from finding out that you are selling your business.
With Biz Brokers Group your business will be on the highest rated Websites specifically for your area as well as national and international sites. Other advertising mediums may be employed based on your type of business.
BBG’s proven methods of valuing and marketing will put your business in the best possible position to sell. Biz Brokers Group Business Sales Professionals are some of the most highly trained professionals in the industry.
The average properly priced business tends to sell in approximately 90 days however this time frame can vary greatly based on the income of your business (and how easy it is to prove), type of business, the terms offered and the area in which your business is located. Your local Biz Brokers Group Business Sales Professional will provide you with more information on your local market.
After a Buyer has signed an NDA (Buyer Confidentiality), reviewed initial information and expressed a further interest in your business your BBG Business Sales Professional will schedule a meeting for the Buyer to view your business at a time that is appropriate for your type of business.
Most Buyers looking at your business will be represented by a Professional Business Broker who will assist them in writing an offer that expresses their price, terms, contingencies (if any) and request for further documentation (if any). The offer will then be presented to you for your approval by your BBG Business Broker and/or the Buyer’s Agent.
Your Biz Brokers Group Business Sales Professional is trained to deal with incoming inquires (often tire kickers) and help determine which of those Buyers might be ready to move to the next level.
Your Biz Brokers Group Business Sales Professional is trained to deal with negotiations on the sale of your business. Your BBG Business Broker will help navigate you through the entire process; we’ll be with you every step of the way.
This is a negotiable point but we have found that most Buyers will ask for 30 days. Some types of businesses only require a week or two of training while other more complicated businesses may require a longer familiarization period. If a longer period is required we often find that Sellers will negotiate a consulting fee for extended training periods.
All Buyers will ask that you sign a covenant not to compete within a certain area and/or time period.
There is no requirement that you “carry paper” on your business however in today’s market it is very common that Buyers will ask for some type of Seller Carry Note which in reality opens your business to a larger pool of Buyers.
While you may have a close relationship with your employees it has been proven time and time again that the best time to tell your employees is when you introduce them to the new owners. This may be difficult for you emotionally however experience dictates that silence is the best practice. The exception to this rule would be if a “key” employee is part of the negotiation for the Buyer to keep them on after the sale is complete. In this case there may be some advance notice required to this person and this person alone. Your Biz Brokers Group Business Broker will guide you through the proper timing for this very important part of the business. Timing is everything!
Biz Brokers Group does not check the credit of Buyers however through the offer and acceptance process you may request that the Buyer provide you with a copy of their credit report. This is not often asked of the Buyer as the property owner and/or landlord will likely be obtaining a credit report for their review.
