What we do
Business Sale Compass helps owners of established UK companies who are thinking about selling. We offer free guides, an indicative valuation that is reviewed by an M&A adviser before it is sent, and introductions to independent M&A advisers, corporate finance boutiques and business brokers.
We are not a marketplace. We do not list businesses for sale, we do not act for buyers, and we do not take part in negotiations. Once you have been introduced, any engagement is between you and the adviser you choose.
How we are paid
The service is free for business owners. We never charge an owner for a valuation, an introduction or anything else, before or after.
We are paid by the advisers we work with. When an owner we introduced signs an engagement letter with one of them, or when the resulting sale completes, that adviser pays us a referral fee (also called an introducer fee). The fee is agreed with each adviser in advance and is paid from the adviser's own income. We suggest advisers on the basis of sector, deal size, region and experience. The fee does not decide who we suggest or in which order.
If you would like to know whether a particular adviser pays us a fee, ask us at hello@businesssalecompass.co.uk and we will tell you.
No advice and no FCA authorisation
Business Sale Compass and Jorji GmbH are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. We do not give financial, investment, legal, tax or accounting advice, and nothing on this website should be read as such advice. We do not arrange or negotiate transactions and we do not hold client money.
Our role is limited to introducing you to independent advisers. Each adviser is responsible for its own services and, where relevant, for holding any authorisation or professional membership its work requires. Before you engage anyone, check their status, for example on the FCA Register or with their professional body, and take your own legal and tax advice.
About the valuation estimate
The valuation is an indicative estimate. It is based only on the answers you give and on published ranges of deal multiples, and an adviser reviews it before it is sent to you.
It is not a formal valuation for tax, accounting, court, shareholder or lending purposes and it is not an offer to buy. The price a buyer pays depends on due diligence, negotiation and market conditions on the day.
