At IBX Business Brokers LLC, we partner with founder-led, family-owned enterprises and strategic acquirers to deliver superior M&A outcomes—not just transactions.

Our Mission
We empower business owners to exit on their terms and help strategic buyers accelerate growth through smart acquisitions—all while preserving confidentiality, unlocking value, and delivering clarity across the deal lifecycle.

Sell-Side Representation for Founder-Run & Family Businesses
For business owners and founding families, selling your company is one of the most consequential transactions of a lifetime. We specialize in sell-side representation for founder-run and family-owned businesses, offering a tailored roadmap that covers valuation, readiness, buyer outreach, negotiation and closing.
-We begin with a rigorous valuation and exit-readiness analysis, reviewing financial performance, operational strength, market position, owner objectives and legacy considerations.
- We create a confidential marketing strategy that highlights your business’s unique strengths while protecting your identity and operations via controlled disclosures and NDAs.
- We identify and qualify the right buyer-universe—strategic acquirers, private equity, family offices or individual entrepreneurs—ensuring alignment of culture, capability and capital.
- We lead deal structuring and negotiation that align purchase price, terms, tax efficiency and post-transaction goals—including earn-outs, seller financing, rollover equity as appropriate.
- We manage due diligence and transaction execution end-to-end, liaising with legal, tax, accounting and financing advisors so you can remain focused on your business until closing.

Buy-Side Advisory for Strategic Acquirers
For corporate acquirers, private equity and development teams looking to scale through acquisition, we serve as a dedicated buy-side advisory partner.
- We source and evaluate acquisition targets that match your strategic criteria and fill capability gaps.
- We conduct rigorous target-fit, valuation, and integration assessments to preserve your deal discipline.
- We lead negotiation and transaction management on your behalf—minimizing distraction, risk and execution overhead.

Valuation Services
At the core of every successful M&A engagement is clarity about value. Our valuation practice offers a data-driven assessment of your business’s worth today—and a roadmap for increasing it. We deploy industry-standard methodologies, market benchmarking and owner-specific scenario planning to help you:
- set realistic expectations,
- prioritize value-enhancing opportunities, and
- optimize timing, positioning and structure for a successful exit or acquisition.
