How It Works
A straightforward process with no surprises. You're in control at every step.
Initial Conversation
We start with a brief, confidential call. You tell us about your business, your goals, and your timeline. We listen. No forms, no CIMs, no pressure.
- Quick call or video chat (15-30 min)
- Share as much or as little as you're comfortable with
- We explain how we work and answer your questions
Understand Your Goals
Every owner has different priorities. Some want to maximize price. Others care about their employees or staying involved. We need to understand what matters to you.
- What does a successful exit look like for you?
- What role do you want post-sale (if any)?
- What kind of buyer would be the right fit?
Identify Matching Buyers
We work with PE firms, search funds, and family offices who are actively acquiring businesses. We identify which ones match your criteria — industry focus, deal size, approach.
- We only introduce serious, funded buyers
- Buyers are matched to your specific goals
- You approve every introduction before it happens
Make Introductions
When you're ready — and only when you're ready — we facilitate introductions. You meet the buyers, ask your questions, and decide if you want to continue.
- We handle the outreach and scheduling
- Conversations are always confidential
- No obligation to proceed at any point
You Decide
If a buyer is the right fit, you move forward on your terms. If not, you walk away. We can stay in touch for when the timing is right.
- No pressure to accept any offer
- We're here to advise, not push
- If now isn't the right time, we'll reconnect later
Throughout this entire process, you're in control. We never share your information without permission, we never charge you a fee, and there's never any obligation to proceed.
DealSeam is always paid by buyers — never by sellers.
