Selling Your Business
How It Works
1. Tell Us About Your Business.
Answer a few quick questions. It takes under two minutes.
2. Book a Confidential Call.
Choose a time that works for you.
You'll speak directly with a senior M&A professional.
3. Get Clarity.
We'll discuss your business, your goals, and your options. If there's a fit, we can make curated introductions to qualified buyers. If not, you'll walk away with a clearer picture - no strings attached.
Why Business Owners Work With Us
We're not brokers. We don't list your business on a marketplace or send your details to a database. Every introduction is personal, curated, and confidential.
We work with institutional buyers. Our clients are established private equity firms, portfolio companies, and corporate acquirers - not individual buyers or search funds looking for a first deal.
Founder-first, always. We understand that selling a business you've built is personal. Our process is designed to respect your time, your privacy, and your legacy.
No upfront cost. We are retained by the buyers, not the sellers. There is no fee to you for exploring your options through Clavana.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this really confidential?
Yes. We never contact your employees, customers, suppliers, or competitors. Your information is shared with potential buyers only with your explicit consent, and only after you've agreed to proceed.
How is Clavana different from a business broker?
Brokers typically list your business for sale and market it broadly. We work the other way - we identify qualified buyers and make discreet, one-to-one introductions. We are retained by the buying side, so there is no fee to you.
Do I need to be ready to sell right now?
Not at all. Many business owners who speak with us are 1–3 years away from a transaction. Understanding your options early gives you time to prepare and maximise value.
What happens on the call?
A senior member of our team will ask about your business, your goals, and your timeline. We'll give you an honest perspective on your options. There is no obligation to proceed at any stage.
What size businesses do you work with?
We typically work with businesses generating $5M+ in annual revenue, though there is no strict minimum. If you're not sure whether you're a fit, book a call and we'll let you know.
Who will I be speaking with?
A senior M&A professional - not a junior associate, not a call center, not a chatbot. Someone with direct experience in private equity and acquisitions.
