Indicative only, calibrated to 2025-26 private-market transaction data and the inputs above. Your real valuation depends on financial quality, growth story, management depth, and buyer competition. That is what we cover on the call.
Who runs your process changes your number.
The advisor you choose determines which buyers show up, how hard they compete, and how much of the headline price survives to close.
| Leprince Group Best outcome | Traditional broker | Selling it yourself | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who advises you | Operators who have built and sold their own 8-9 figure businesses | An intermediary who has never run a company | You, selling a business for the first time |
| Preparation before sale | 12-24 months fixing what buyers discount, before going to market | A quick write-up, then straight to market | None. You react when a buyer approaches |
| Buyers at the table | Warm access to strategics, funds, and family offices active in your sector | A standard database of contacts | Whoever happens to knock |
| How the price is set | Several vetted buyers bidding against each other on one timeline | One conversation at a time | You negotiate alone against a professional acquirer |
| How fees work | The majority of our fee is paid only when your deal closes | Retainers paid whether you sell or not | No fees, but no leverage either |
| What you walk away with | A premium price, protected through diligence to close | Whatever the market clears at | The buyer's opening number |

What founders ask before we talk.
What size business do you work with?
We work with established businesses at 8-9 figures of revenue or enterprise value, across sectors: brands, e-commerce, services, software, media, and industrials such as logistics, packaging, manufacturing, and distribution. Founder-owned, family-held, or institutionally backed. We do not take on early-stage businesses.
How accurate is the valuation model above?
The model gives an indicative range based on current sector multiples and the inputs you provide. It is a directional starting point, not a formal valuation. Your real number accounts for financial quality, growth, management, and buyer competition, which we cover on the call.
When is the right time to start?
Ideally twelve to twenty-four months before you want to transact. That gives us time to prepare the business, fix what buyers discount, and go to market from a position of strength rather than reacting to an unsolicited approach.
How do you charge?
We earn the majority of our fee at close, aligned with the outcome. Our incentive is to maximise what you receive, not to complete a transaction quickly. We discuss the specifics on the first call.
What happens on the first call?
We talk about the business, where it is today, and what you want the exit to achieve. You leave knowing an indicative range, what is capping your multiple, and what it would take to reach the top of it. There is no cost and no obligation.
Find out what your business is really worth.
One call to understand your indicative valuation, what is capping the multiple, and what it could be worth with focused work. No cost, no obligation.
