Why post a number

A signal, not a process.

Post anonymously. See who’s interested. Then decide — do nothing, deal directly with a buyer, or engage an advisor who now has real data to work with.

Skip the false start.

Don’t pay for pitch decks, valuations, or advisor retainers before you know the market wants you. Post your number anonymously. If nobody bites, you’ve spent five minutes — not five months.

See the shape of interest.

Who asks tells you what you need: is the number credible, are the buyers the right kind, is there a mandate here. The signal is what you came for — not the sale itself.

Then your next move is yours.

Ignore the approaches. Deal direct with a buyer. Or bring in an advisor who now knows your aspiration, how it aligns with the market, and who’s already interested. Nothing obligates you. Nothing is locked in.

How reveal works

You control every reveal. Per person. Per moment.

Approval doesn’t mean everything. It means a conversation. Every identifying detail — name, address, exact numbers, customer list — is a toggle. Flip it for one buyer, keep it from another. Share it now, withhold it later.

Stage 1 · Conversation

You talk. They still don’t know you.

You approve the request. A thread opens. You see exactly who they are. They don’t see your name, your business, your numbers — anything. Ask questions. Judge intent. Give ground only when you’re ready.

Stage 2 · Selective

Share what helps. Keep what matters.

Decide, per buyer, what to share next. Maybe the exact revenue figure, but not the customer list. Maybe the trading address, but not the website. Each field is its own decision — and each decision is audited.

Stage 3 · Full reveal

Only when you’re ready. Only if you say.

If the conversation has earned it, you open the last few fields: legal name, website, customers, full financials. Usually at the point a buyer is days from an LOI — not before. Still reversible; still yours.

Quiet signals, before a process begins.

Sarah K.

“

I wanted to know whether the number in my head was credible before I spent months with a broker. Five minutes, completely anonymous. Turned out I was five hundred grand low.

James W.

“

A quieter pipeline than we see through brokers. Real owners, thinking. We get in earlier, so there is more to solve — but with real time, everything is possible.

Ruth A.

“

This is where I look when the warm leads run out. Sellers who are thinking, not yet committed. The ‘don’t know’ flag alone is worth the subscription — it tells me where I can add value instantly.

Tom F.

“

Posted my number on a Tuesday. By Friday, six funds had asked. I haven’t shown my name to any of them yet. Walking away costs me nothing.

Margaret W.

“

We see opportunities brokers wouldn’t bring to us yet — the early-stage ones. That’s the work. Brokers come in once the decision is taken; we want to be in the room before.

David M.

“

My wife asked me ‘what would you actually sell for’ last summer. I didn’t know. Now I do — and I know which buyers would meet me there.

Charlie L.

“

Three serious sellers in my first month. None of them were on any other platform. The masked listing is enough to tell me if it fits my mandate before I’ve burned a meeting.

Ines P.

“

The masked listings filter out the noise. We can scan twenty in an hour, not two. If the band fits and the location works, we ask. Half the time, that’s the start of something.
