Divestments – the Art of Selling a Business
For many business owners, selling their business is a major life event in a potentially complex field. Divest Merge Acquire provides expert advice throughout the divestment process. Our team of qualified, expert professionals have a wealth of experience in corporate advisory, business management and transactions. They are complemented by a dedicated, very capable project management team. Together they strive to make the process smooth and stress-free for our clients.
Key Things to Understand About the Sale Process
Selling Your Business
Our comprehensive process ensures that no detail is overlooked, no problem is unforeseen, and no money is left unnecessarily on the table. It is a formula for success that our national advisory network and administrative support professionals have refined and developed into a systematic approach that we can replicate with confidence time after time.
The key Process Steps are: Business Preparation, Document Preparation, Marketing, Negotiating, Terms Agreed, and Contract to Completion. We use our proprietary database to identify those buyers and partners who seek and recognise the strategic value in your type of business – and who have the motivation and wherewithal to acquire them. They are generally Australian and internationally listed and unlisted entities. Our M&A database continually tracks and updates the acquisition aspirations of these companies.


Are You Ready to Sell?
The most overlooked aspect of the M&A process – especially by those who venture into the marketplace without professional guidance – is preparation. Early investment in expert advice is a small step that can yield significant financial benefits. Taking the time to gain the knowledge of your business’ worth, making strategic moves that will enhance its market value, and researching potential purchasers can give you the confidence and competitive edge that is likely to pay dividends on the most important transaction of your life.
