Our Services

Whether you’re planning a future exit or actively pursuing a sale or acquisition, our flexible advisory model gives you clarity, confidence, and control — without pressure or lock-in commitments.

Business Valuation

We deliver objective, professional business valuations using multiple recognized methodologies — income, market comparables, and asset-based — as endorsed by the IBBA and CBV. Each valuation is tailored to BC’s small business market and informed by over 100 hands-on valuation engagements.

Exit Ready Package

Our Exit Ready Package includes:
A valuation report to help you determine the asking price
A professionally written Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM)
An optional, confidential Pre-sale Market Test to gather real buyer interest and inform your next steps.

Business Selling (Full-Service)

For owners seeking expert guidance through the entire process — from pricing and preparation to marketing, buyer screening, negotiation, due diligence, and closing — we offer full-service brokerage with competitive success fees.
All Exit Ready materials transition seamlessly into the full-service engagement.

Buyer Support Package

For buyers — especially first-time buyers — we offer a structured Buyer Support Package, which includes:
– A valuation of your target business
– Analysis of listings and CIMs
– Offer strategy and initial document preparation

Business Buying (Full-Service)

Buyer Support Package can also be upgraded to full-service buyer representation, including offer negotiation, due diligence facilitation, and closing support. Like the seller model, the package fee can be credited toward commission if you choose to upgrade.

CBV Valuation Reports

There are three types of reports by Chartered Business Valuators– Comprehensive Valuation Reports, Estimate Valuation Reports and Calculation Valuation Reports.
CBV reports are available through our CBV partners.
