For Sell-Side Advisors

Stop chasing documents.
Start closing deals.

You know the pain: vendors who aren't ready, months spent chasing financials, add-backs that don't stack up, unrealistic price expectations. Refer your vendors to Deal Ready Group first. We normalise EBITDA, verify financials, produce the IM, set up the data room, and benchmark pricing against real transaction data. You receive a certified, market-ready listing.

For Industry Partners

Refer clients into the
Deal Ready process.

We also work with accountants, lawyers, lenders, and finance brokers who refer business owners into the Deal Ready process. Your clients get properly prepared before going to market. You stay their trusted advisor and earn a referral fee at settlement.

Accountants & Tax Advisors

When exit conversations come up, refer to Deal Ready Group. We work with you and your client to verify financials, clarify add-backs, and position the business for maximum value. You remain their trusted advisor.

Bookkeepers

You know the books. When you spot exit signals like owner fatigue, succession questions, or profitability peaks, a timely Deal Ready Group introduction makes a material difference.

Commercial Lawyers

Clients approaching you for sale structuring often aren't market-ready. We work alongside you to organise contracts, leases, and key documentation before the business goes to market. Early preparation reduces risk and improves transaction outcomes.

DD time reduced ~40%
Lenders

Deal Ready certified businesses provide clean, verified financial information that improves funding confidence and de-risks approval processes. We collaborate with lenders to ensure businesses meet institutional standards before going to market.

Verified financials delivered
Finance Brokers

Business owners refinancing often have exit on their mind. A well-timed Deal Ready Group introduction adds value, and we return acquisition finance referrals to broker partners.

Financial Planners

Retirement-minded clients need a real exit plan, not just a super strategy. We turn exit intentions into documented, certified outcomes, so their financial plan is built on real numbers.

Why It Makes Sense

Better outcomes.
Less work.

Your vendors arrive market-ready

No more months spent chasing financials and documents. We handle preparation so you can focus on what you're good at: selling.

We collect the documents so you don't have to

BAS statements, tax returns, leases, contracts, supplier agreements. We chase it all directly with the vendor and their accountant.

Pricing expectations are grounded before you list

We benchmark against real transaction multiples. Fewer awkward conversations with vendors who think their business is worth 2x what the data supports.

Fewer deals fall through

Verified financials and identified risk flags mean fewer surprises in due diligence. Buyers and lenders have confidence in the numbers.

Buyer and lender confidence

Deal Ready certified businesses come with verified financials that meet institutional lending standards. This de-risks the approval process for acquisition finance.

You keep the listing and the relationship

We prepare, you sell. Your brand, your client, your fee structure. Deal Ready Group is the preparation layer, not a competing brokerage.

Referral pipeline from industry partners

Accountants, lawyers, and finance brokers refer business owners into the Deal Ready process. You benefit from structured deal origination beyond your own prospecting.
