A private way for business owners to test the water

Sell your business off-market — privately, and without telling a soul.

Your business is never advertised and never listed anywhere public. You tell us, in confidence, the price you'd be happy to take. Then our licensed brokers quietly find out if there's a real buyer who'll pay it — and nobody finds out you're even asking. It costs you nothing to find out. You only pay if you decide to sell.

Find out what it's worth How it works

Off-marketCompletely privateNever publicly listedNothing to pay up front

Don't sign with a broker until you know what it's worth.

Before you commit to selling, before you sign anything, before your business goes anywhere public — find out, quietly and for free, whether a buyer will actually pay your price. It's the sensible first step, and it costs you nothing to take.

Find out what it's worth

Completely private

Nobody finds out. Not your staff, not your customers, not your competitors.

The first thing most owners ask us is the quiet one: can I do this without anyone knowing? Yes. Completely.

Your business is never listed anywhere public. The buyers we approach see the opportunity — the numbers and the upside — but not your name or anything that gives you away. Your staff keep working as normal. Your customers, your suppliers, your competitors: none of them have any way of knowing.

Nothing about you gets shared until you decide an offer is worth talking about. This is a private matter, and we treat it like one — start to finish.

Test the water

Find out if a buyer will pay your price — before you decide anything.

Most owners never find out what their business would really sell for. The usual way makes you commit first — sign with a broker, list it publicly, let the whole market know — and only then do you find out if anyone's even interested.

We do it the other way round. You tell us, in confidence, the price you'd be happy to take. We quietly find out if there's a real buyer who'll pay it. You get your answer without having committed to anything or told anyone. Whether you actually sell is a separate decision — made later, and only by you.

What it costs

It costs you nothing to find out. Here's why.

We're a licensed brokerage, and we get paid the way brokers do — a commission when a business sells. Ours is a flat 10% of the sale price, agreed in writing up front, and only ever paid if you go ahead and sell.

Because we only get paid when you sell, we're happy to do the work of finding a buyer first, at our cost. We only take on businesses we genuinely think we can sell — so when we tell you there's a buyer, there's a buyer. You win when we do, and not before.

The honest comparison

The usual way vs. our way.

	The usual broker	BizBrief
Cost to get started	Often upfront marketing & listing fees	Nothing. Free to find out.
If it doesn't sell	You can still be out of pocket	You owe nothing
How it's sold	Listed publicly, out to the market	Quietly, off-market, never listed
Who finds out	Anyone browsing the listings	Nobody, unless you say so
When you pay	Often whether you sell or not	Only when you sell — a flat 10%
What you commit to	A signed listing agreement up front	Nothing, until you choose to

Traditional broker arrangements vary; "often" reflects common industry practice, not every firm.

You risk nothing by finding out.

We only get paid if we find you a buyer and you choose to sell. If we can't, you've lost nothing but a conversation — and you've learned exactly what your business is worth to the market. The risk is entirely ours.

How it works

Three steps. Only one of them is yours.

Tell us your number

Have a chat with Jordan, our AI assistant — about your business, your numbers, and the price you'd be happy with. Around 30 minutes, over the phone. No paperwork, no cost.

We go and look — quietly

One of our licensed brokers takes your details — with your name kept off them — to the buyers most likely to want it. Nothing public. Nobody knows it's your business, or that you're even asking.

You get your answer

If there's a real buyer who'll pay your price, we bring you the offer and you decide. If there isn't, you'll know that too — and it didn't cost you a thing to find out.

Who it's for

You don't have to be selling. You just have to wonder.

You'd never put a sign up

You're not selling. But if the right buyer turned up tomorrow with a number that made it worth it, you'd listen. Now you can find out if that buyer's out there — without telling anyone.

You're starting to think about it

Maybe "one day." Find out today what that day would actually look like — what it's worth, and who'd buy it — before you commit to a thing.

You're ready to sell

You want out, quietly and at a good price, without your staff or competitors hearing about it. That's exactly what we do.

Why this is rare

Most brokers can't do this. We're built for it.

The usual broker gets paid to list your business and put it out to the market. We only get paid when you actually sell to a buyer we've found. That's the difference that lets us do the work quietly and up front, at no cost to you — and lets us help owners who'd never put their business out in public. It's a quieter way of doing things, and we built it that way on purpose.
