Plan it properly. Sell it confidently. Get the deal you actually want.
Selling a business isn’t something you wing — and this DIY Business Sale Toolkit is built for owners who want to get serious without handing control (or big fees) to the wrong people.
This toolkit walks you step by step through preparing your business for sale properly, so when buyers show up, you’re ready — financially, operationally, and mentally.
Most businesses never sell because they aren’t prepared. This toolkit fixes that.
What the Toolkit Helps You Do
Get a real-world valuation
Understand what your business is actually worth — not what you hope it’s worth. Learn how valuation works, what drives it, and how to avoid common mistakes that kill deals.
Get your financials sale-ready
Sort your accounts, clean up personal expenses, improve cash visibility, and put your business in the strongest possible position before buyers start digging.
Document key processes
Turn your business into something that works without you. Systemise operations, create an owner’s manual, and build a business buyers can step into with confidence.
Boost your ‘curb appeal’
Reduce risk, tidy up the obvious issues, and make your business look professional, stable, and attractive — on paper and in reality.
Decide what you want from the sale
Price is only part of the deal. This toolkit helps you think through exit structure, handover, earn-outs, and life after the sale so there are no regrets later.
Create a compelling teaser & Information Memorandum
Learn how to present your business properly to buyers using simple design tools or professional support — no amateur listings, no red flags.
Test the market discreetly
Explore buyer interest without alerting staff, competitors, or customers. Learn how to approach the right people under NDAs and keep control of the process.
Build the right advisory team
Understand who you actually need around you — broker, accountant, solicitor, tax specialist — and how each one fits into a successful exit.
Who This Toolkit Is For
- Business owners planning a sale in the next 6–36 months
- Owners who want clarity before speaking to brokers or buyers
- Sellers who want better price, better terms, and fewer surprises
- Anyone who doesn’t want their life’s work falling apart in due diligence
The Bottom Line
This isn’t theory. It’s a practical, no-nonsense toolkit designed to help you prepare properly, avoid expensive mistakes, and sell your business on your terms.
