Sell your business with someone in your corner.
We know how important selling your business is. That’s why we established Move the Multiple Advisory.
We help owners of small and medium-sized businesses prepare for sale, then run the deal on your behalf from the first offer through to completion.
You keep running your business. We take care of coordination with lawyers, financial advisers and the buyer.
Most importantly, we keep the deal moving, extracting the maximum value for you.
Who we work with
Owner-led small and medium-sized businesses in the UK and Australia, across a range of industries.
You know your business inside out, but you’ve probably never sold one. Most owners only do it once, while still running the business day to day. That’s a lot to take on.
We’re a good fit if you’re:
Thinking about selling in the next few years and want to be ready
Weighing up an approach from a buyer
Planning to step back, retire or hand over the reins
Partway through a sale that has lost momentum
We work alongside you through every part of the sale, so you get the best value from the business you’ve built.
How we help
Before the sale
Preparing to sell
We review your processes and your numbers, work out what a buyer will ask for, and fix the gaps early. We show you where to cut, where to add, and what to get ready so due diligence runs smoothly.
During the sale
From first offer to completion
We lead the process for you. Through offers, negotiations and due diligence, we coordinate your lawyer, your accountant and the buyer so nothing stalls, and you stay across every decision that matters.
After the sale
Through handover and beyond
We help you hand over to the new owner, keep track of anything still owed to you, and make sure what was agreed in the deal actually happens. We’re there until everything is settled.
Why work with us
Getting the most value from your business
Throughout her career in the commercial sector, our founder has led acquisitions from the first conversation through to integration. We know what buyers look for, what slows due diligence down, and where deals fall over. We use that insight to secure the best price for you.
Trusted legal and finance partners
We work with a trusted network of lawyers and finance professionals. We coordinate everyone involved so you don’t have to. A faster sale can mean a better price, and a lot less stress.
More of your money upfront
We push for as much of the sale price as possible to be paid upfront. If part of it is deferred, we make sure there are strong protections on the rest, and we stay with you until it’s paid.
No hourly billing
We don’t charge by the hour. We agree our fee with you at the start, so you know where you stand, and it’s in our interest to keep your sale moving. Because we keep everyone organised, there’s less back and forth with your lawyer and accountant, reducing your overall sale costs.
