A business that runs without you is worth far more than one that doesn't.

Most Australian service business owners underestimate what buyers actually pay for — and what they discount. A business generating $2M in revenue can sell for anywhere from $400k to $2.4M depending on how well it's documented, how owner-dependent it is, and how clean the financials are.

What reduces your sale price:

• The business relies on you for client relationships
• Financial records are messy or EOFY-only
• There's no management team — just you and staff
• SOPs don't exist or aren't followed
• Revenue is inconsistent — no pipeline visibility
• No data room — due diligence takes months and kills deals

• Exit readiness documentation — everything a buyer needs, prepared before they ask
• Board-ready financial reporting — weekly and monthly numbers any buyer can audit
