The $10 Trillion Pricing Problem
In the next 10 years, $10T of small businesses will change hands - and right now, 7 out of 10 small businesses that go to market fail to sell.
For Owners
No clear answer on what their business is worth
The data doesn't exist in one place. A bad number can cost years of work.
The only advice available is expensive or biased
Brokers take a cut. Banks want the loan. Owners just want a straight answer.
For Buyers
Can't get a market read
Deal data is scattered and unreliable. It's hard to tell if an asking price is fair or inflated.
The odds are stacked against them
Only 1 in 15 prospective buyers ever complete a transaction, wasting precious time and money.
87%
of owners surveyed can't get a defensible value estimate
68%
found it highly difficult to get trusted comparables
7 in 10
small businesses never find a buyer
