For owners under about $2M in yearly earnings
Make your business one a buyer says yes to.
M&A firms and the private equity buyers behind them want about two million a year in earnings before they compete for a deal. Buyers still want businesses below that line. Brokers, marketplaces, search funds, and individual buyers close those sales every day, and the prepared owner gets the better price. We do the preparation with you. And if you are already past a million, you are close: a year or two of the right cleanup can carry you over the line.
01
Take the free readiness check
Twenty questions grade your business the way a buyer would read it, and the report hands you your first five fixes in order of impact. The free playbook then shows you how to make each fix.
02
Know your number, then document your story
The Valuation Report shows what your business actually earns for its owner and the honest range it would fetch. The CIM Builder turns your answers into the professional document sellers on marketplaces almost never have.
03
Sell through the right channel, or grow into a bigger one
With your preparation done, a broker or a marketplace listing works far better. And if you would rather grow first, James will tell you honestly what your business needs to reach the size where M&A firms compete for it.
Everything here works whether you sell next year or in five. Preparation raises the price at every size.
