Business Broker · British Columbia & the Lower Mainland

A business sale isn't just a financial decision.

It's a life decision.

I help business owners navigate the sale of their business with thoughtful advice, careful preparation, and experienced guidance from start to finish.

What a broker actually does

My job is to understand what your business is worth, prepare it so buyers have confidence in what they're buying, find the right buyer discreetly, and keep the deal moving when things get complicated.

For most owners, selling a business is the largest financial transaction of their lives. And it happens while they're still running the company, leading their team, and carrying the emotional weight of something they've spent years building.

The process

Every business sale is different. The process isn't.

01

Understand the value

A valuation isn't about picking the highest number. It's about understanding what your business is worth in today's market so you can attract qualified buyers and negotiate from a position of confidence.

02

Prepare before you sell

The best deals are won long before a buyer submits an offer. We prepare your business, identify potential roadblocks early, and run a confidential process that protects your employees, customers, and reputation.

03

Create the right market

The goal isn't simply to find a buyer. It's to create enough interest to generate options. Competition drives stronger offers, but the best outcome comes from finding a buyer who's the right financial and cultural fit.

04

Keep the deal moving

Most transactions become more complicated after an offer is accepted. My job isn't to react to problems. It's to uncover them early, solve them thoughtfully, and keep them from becoming deal-breakers.

Who I work with

Good businesses deserve good exits.

I work with established Main Street and lower mid-market businesses across British Columbia, with a particular focus on consumer-facing businesses and childcare. While those industries make up much of my work, I help owners across a wide range of businesses navigate the sale of something they've spent years building. If you're starting to think about what's next, I'd be happy to have the conversation.

Why me

I've spent over a decade building and running small businesses, from software to home services to professional services firms. That experience shapes the way I approach every sale.

I know what it's like to make payroll, worry about cash flow, build a team, and have your identity wrapped up in something you've spent years creating. Selling a business isn't just about the numbers. It's about everything those numbers represent.

You'll get straightforward advice, not a sales pitch. If your business isn't ready, or the timing isn't right, I'll tell you. My job is to help you make good decisions.
