Our End-to-End Business Sale Process

Step 1: Confidential Business Valuation

We begin with a confidential, data-driven valuation. Our team considers your cash flow, industry trends, location, and market demand to estimate a realistic sale price. This helps ensure your business is competitively positioned — not underpriced or overpriced.

Step 2: Strategic Marketing and Buyer Outreach

Once you approve the valuation, we craft a customized marketing plan. We prepare an anonymous business profile and promote your listing through high-performing channels, including buyer databases, online marketplaces, and our private network. Your business identity remains protected throughout.

Step 3: Screening and Qualifying Buyers

We vet every prospective buyer to ensure financial ability, strategic interest, and confidentiality. Our goal is to minimize distractions and only bring forward serious, capable buyers who are aligned with your business’s value and future.

Step 4: Negotiation and Deal Structuring

We represent you throughout the negotiation process, working to secure optimal terms. Whether it’s deal structure, payment timeline, or transition planning, our brokers work to ensure that your needs and financial goals are met.

Step 5: Due Diligence and Closing

We coordinate due diligence with the buyer, your CPA, legal team, and advisors. Our job is to keep the process moving efficiently and transparently. Once everything checks out, we facilitate closing — ensuring a smooth handoff with minimal stress.

Protecting Your Privacy Throughout the Sale

Confidentiality is critical when selling a business. We protect your identity using nondisclosure agreements (NDAs), anonymous marketing materials, and a controlled release of sensitive data. Your employees, customers, and competitors will not know your business is for sale until the right moment.

Industry Specialization: Home Services & Beyond

Our brokerage is especially experienced in the home services sector, including:

• HVAC

• Plumbing

• Electrical contracting

• Landscaping & pest control

• Construction trades

In addition, we have successfully represented retail, professional services, manufacturing, and distribution companies. We understand the nuances of each industry and what buyers look for in different sectors.

Nationwide Buyer Network with Local Expertise

We maintain a robust network of pre-qualified buyers, including private equity groups, strategic acquirers, individual investors, and family offices. While our office is based in Salt Lake City, we regularly close deals across the U.S. Our combination of local insight and national reach means your business receives broad exposure — and serious buyer interest.
