The SellYourBiz process

From thinking about selling to finding a buyer.

Our process is designed to reduce unnecessary administration while keeping you informed and in control at every stage.

1

Start with your business valuation

Tell us about your business, financial performance and some of the factors that affect buyer demand. Our online valuation tool then provides an estimated business value.

✓ Free online valuation ✓ Takes only a few minutes ✓ No obligation to sell ✓ Information carries forward
2

Choose how much help you want

Not every seller needs the same level of service. Choose from Essential, Plus or Managed depending on how much of the process you want to handle yourself.

✓ Low-cost self-service option ✓ Automated assisted-sale option ✓ Account Manager option ✓ Transparent pricing
3

Complete one online onboarding process

Provide the information needed to prepare your business for sale. Where possible, information you've already entered during valuation can automatically carry forward.

✓ Business details ✓ Financial information ✓ Premises and staffing ✓ Sale and confidentiality preferences
4

Your business is prepared for the market

Your information is used to create your SellYourBiz listing. Depending on your chosen plan, this may also include professional listing preparation, a confidential sales brochure and additional marketing tools.

✓ Professional presentation ✓ Confidential marketing ✓ Business category and location ✓ Seller Dashboard created
5

Buyers enquire through SellYourBiz

Interested buyers can make enquiries through your listing. With supported plans, buyers can also complete confidentiality and qualification steps before more sensitive information is released.

✓ Buyer contact details captured ✓ Funding information ✓ Purchase timescale ✓ NDA where required
6

Manage your sale from your dashboard

Your Seller Dashboard gives you one place to follow buyer activity, enquiries and progress. Higher-level plans can include more detailed buyer and sale-management tools.

✓ Monitor enquiries ✓ Track qualified buyers ✓ Follow viewings and offers ✓ Keep listing information current
7

Negotiate and progress your sale

Once a serious buyer emerges, you remain in control of the final decision. Managed Plan sellers can also access additional guidance with buyer discussions, offers and sale progression.

✓ Review offers ✓ Negotiate terms ✓ Appoint legal advisers ✓ Progress toward completion

Common questions

A simpler way to understand the process.

Is SellYourBiz a business broker?
SellYourBiz is designed as an assisted self-sale platform rather than a conventional full-service business broker. You choose how much of the sale you manage yourself and how much additional support you want.
Do I have to pay a percentage of my sale price?
The current SellYourBiz model is based on transparent fixed and/or monthly charges rather than a traditional broker percentage commission. Final pricing is shown on the relevant plan page.
Will buyers know the identity of my business?
Your business can be marketed confidentially. Sensitive or identifying information can be held back until appropriate confidentiality requirements have been completed.
Do I have to deal with buyers myself?
It depends on your plan. Essential is designed for sellers who are comfortable managing buyer communication themselves, while Plus adds more automation and Managed adds personal Account Manager support.
Who negotiates the final sale?
You remain the decision-maker. Managed Plan customers can receive additional guidance around offers and negotiation, but the seller controls whether an offer is accepted and on what terms.
What happens when a buyer is agreed?
The transaction normally moves into due diligence and legal documentation. The buyer and seller appoint the appropriate solicitors, accountants and other professional advisers required for the transaction.
