A sample post
This is the kind of post that lands in your plan, here for Instagram.
Myth: A business is worth what the owner put into it. Fact: Buyers pay for future earnings and stability. Valuation looks forward, not back.
Photo brief. Split card: a pile of old ledgers labelled MYTH, a forward-pointing simple chart labelled FACT. No legible numbers.
Myths your customers believe
Posts that correct a myth earn trust. Your plan includes them, with your business name attached.
Myth. A business is worth what the owner has put into it
Fact. Buyers pay for future earnings, stability and transferability, not past effort. Valuation looks forward.
Myth. Selling a business takes a few weeks
Fact. Preparation, finding the right buyer, due diligence and legal work usually take months.
Myth. Only big companies get sold
Fact. Profitable small and mid-sized businesses, from clinics to distributors, change hands regularly.

Fact. Information is shared in stages, under confidentiality agreements, as buyers prove serious.
How to prepare a business for sale

Questions your customers ask
How is my business valued?
We look at earnings, growth, assets, customer concentration, market and risks, and compare similar transactions where available.
How do you keep the sale confidential?
We share anonymised profiles first and detailed information only after buyers sign confidentiality agreements.
How long does a sale take?
Typically several months, depending on preparation, buyer interest and due diligence.
Do you handle legal and tax work?
We coordinate the process. Legal and tax advice comes from your lawyers and chartered accountants.
What should I prepare before selling?
Clean financial statements, contracts, licences, and a business that can run without you day to day.
How are you paid?
Usually a retainer and a success fee on completion, agreed in writing upfront.
