Frequently Asked Questions
What is your investment criteria?
We typically acquire businesses with:
- $1M-$5M in EBITDA
- $1M+ EBITDA (or SDE)
- Over 10 years in operation
- East Coast operations
- A stable management team in place
If your business is close but not an exact match, we still encourage you to apply.
What geographic area do you target for investment?
We focus primarily on East Coast U.S. businesses, from New England through the Mid-Atlantic and down to the Southeast. That said, we will consider strong opportunities anywhere in the U.S. if they align with our criteria and allow for a smooth transition.
What if I don’t meet all the criteria?
We review every application. If your business doesn’t fit our acquisition model, we may still offer feedback, refer you to a partner, or suggest another exit strategy. There’s no downside to applying.
Am I obligated to sell if I apply?
Absolutely not. Submitting your application is just the first step in exploring whether we’re a good fit. There’s no cost, no commitment, and no pressure.
Will you sell or share my information?
Never. Your information is kept fully confidential. We do not sell, share, or disclose your data to any third parties without your explicit permission.
How long does it take to hear back?
We respond to all qualified submissions within 3 business days. If your business is a potential fit, we’ll reach out to schedule a brief introductory call.
What materials should I prepare?
At a minimum, be ready to share your last 3 years of financials (tax returns or P&Ls), a breakdown of add-backs to calculate SDE, and basic business background. We’ll guide you through the process.
Is this a broker or listing service?
No. BizSellDirect is a direct buyer—not a broker. You’re dealing directly with the acquirer, not a middleman.
What types of businesses do you avoid?
We do not consider pre-revenue startups, restaurants, or bars. While we will consider Amazon FBA and e-commerce businesses, they must have strong financials, operational maturity, and clear transferability. We generally avoid businesses with unresolved legal issues or inconsistent financial records.
