Selling your own business? I run all of it. Advisers choose the deliverables: I work in the background on the parts you need, or run the whole process under your name, and I never approach your client.
Six to nine months, from the first look to funds settled.
The research, the numbers and the sale documents a mid-tier firm’s team takes months to produce, done in a third of the time, so buyers see your business sooner.
Every report and deliverable in 48 hours or less, once I have what it needs.
Before anyone commits: what the sale turns on, from the public record.
| A$000 | FY24 | FY25 | FY26F |

| Normalised EBITDA | 1,300 | 1,545 | 1,578 |
The engagement agreed in writing, and one information request covering everything a buyer will ask. The answers become the workbook: historical financials, what the business really earns once one-off and owner costs are taken out, and the forecast, built as one model linking profit, cash and the balance sheet, signed off before anything is written about them.
The documents buyers read, built from the signed-off numbers.

Buyers under confidentiality, their questions answered, their offers made comparable.
One buyer chosen, then due diligence and the sale agreement, with your lawyers.
Tell me what is in front of you. My commitment: each deliverable within 48 hours of receiving what it needs from you.
