GUIDE
Selling a business confidentially
What stays off the public web, and what confidentiality cannot hide forever.
Public pages are the wrong place for the file
Our public pages do not show a seller's name, company, or exact financials. The sell form is how a range is requested. A listing, if you later choose one, is a separate decision.
Confidentiality is a practice: who receives the figures, whether a buyer signs a nondisclosure agreement, and whether your accountant knows not to mention it. A website checkbox is not that practice.
Silence has a cost
The fewer people who can confirm the story, the slower a buyer's questions get answered. That is a trade you can choose. It is not a failure of the process.
Who receives the figures, and when, is a choice you make after the range.
Questions
Is my submission public?
No. It is stored as a lead so the request can be answered. It is not posted as a listing.
Do buyers sign a nondisclosure agreement?
When a confidential opportunity is actually shared, that is a document for the parties. This article does not create one.
