TBB’s Proven 8-Step Business Sale Process

No-Obligation Consultation & Sellability Score

We begin with a confidential, no-obligation consultation where we ask a focused set of questions about your business. From this information, we generate a Sellability Score that shows how attractive your business is to buyers in today’s market, highlighting strengths, potential challenges, and overall readiness—before you make any commitment.

Engagement & Representation

Once you choose to proceed, we formally engage and take over management of the sale process. From this point forward, TBB handles the transaction while you remain focused on operating your business.

Information Gathering & Pricing

We collect and review your financials and business details, then analyze recently closed transactions in your industry and local market to identify current multiples. Using this data, we help establish a listing price. You choose whether to list at, above, or below market value, with clear guidance on how each option impacts demand and timing.

Listing & Marketing

Your business is professionally listed and marketed through multiple channels, including our internal buyer network, local investors, major business-for-sale platforms, and direct outreach—all while maintaining strict confidentiality.

Managing Buyer Interest

We handle all inquiries, provide information under NDA, and manage buyer communications. This protects your time, preserves confidentiality, and ensures only serious interest moves forward.

Meetings & Site Visits

When buyers are ready, we coordinate and manage calls, meetings, and site visits. Each interaction is scheduled and controlled to maintain discretion and keep momentum.

Offers & Negotiations

We collect all offers and guide negotiations with buyers, clearly outlining price, structure, contingencies, and risk. We then work with you to evaluate each option and select the strongest offer based on both value and certainty.

Due Diligence & Closing

From accepted offer through closing, we manage the process, coordinate with all parties, and keep the transaction moving forward to a successful close.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

How much do you charge to sell a business?

We only get paid when your business sells—there are no upfront fees and no out-of-pocket costs to you. At TBB, we cover all listing and marketing expenses and are compensated only at a successful closing, making the process completely risk-free for sellers. Our success-based fees are among the most competitive in the industry, typically ranging from 6.95% to 8.5%, depending on the complexity of the transaction, ensuring your interests are fully aligned with ours from start to finish.

How do you determine the value of a business?

We determine your business’s value using proven, industry-standard methods by analyzing recently closed transactions in your industry and local market, then applying appropriate revenue and cash-flow multiples to your financials. This data-driven approach helps establish a competitive listing price that attracts qualified buyers while maximizing value. And you choose whether to list at, above, or below market price—our role is to provide the guidance and insights needed to support your decision.

What confidentiality measures do you have in place?

We take confidentiality very seriously. All parties requesting information are required to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before any details are shared. Your business information and identity remain protected throughout the entire process, ensuring confidentiality from initial inquiry through closing.

Do buyers have to pay the business broker anything for help with search and purchase?

No. Buyers do not pay any fees for our expert guidance. We assist buyers throughout the entire process—from identifying opportunities to negotiating terms and successfully completing the acquisition—at no cost to them.

What types of businesses do you specialize in?

TBB specializes in representing brick-and-mortar and service-based businesses across a wide range of industries, helping owners successfully position and sell their companies to qualified buyers.

Can you assist buyers with financing options?

Yes. We have established relationships with trusted lenders and can help connect buyers with financing options to support a smooth and successful acquisition.

How do you market businesses for sale?

We market businesses using a strategic, multi-channel approach designed to reach the right buyers. This includes exposure to our internal network of qualified buyers and local investors, placement on leading business marketplaces, and proactive outreach to ensure your business is presented to the most relevant and active buyers in the market.

How long does the selling process typically take?

While timelines vary based on factors like industry demand, transaction complexity, licensing requirements, and pricing strategy, most businesses sell within 3 to 8 months. With strong buyer demand and proper pricing, some deals can move quickly and close in as little as 45 days. Our process is designed to maximize exposure, maintain momentum, and drive the fastest possible outcome without sacrificing value.
