Bizmark is Ireland's hands-on broker for SMEs and side-projects up to €1m. We value your business, prepare the pitch, find serious buyers, and close the deal — on a tiered fee that only really works when your deal does.
Owners decide to sell, post on DAFT or tell a few contacts, then watch the months drag by. The deal stalls or never starts — and the value walks out the door when they finally close the doors.
No NDAs. No vetting. Strangers asking for your accounts on day one. Half of them are competitors fishing for information.
A trades business doesn't sell the same way a SaaS app does. Without sector-specific positioning, you get low-ball offers from buyers who don't understand what they're looking at.
20 years of goodwill, client relationships and recurring revenue — thrown away because the sale felt too hard. We see this every week.
You keep running the business. We run the sale. From the first conversation to the wire transfer, Bizmark is the only thing standing between you and a successful exit.
Indicative valuation built on sector multiples, regional benchmarks and your actual numbers. No back-of-envelope guesses. You see the working.
Anonymised listing on Bizmark.ie and third-party marketplaces. Direct outreach to our 1,000+ vetted buyer network: trade buyers, search funds, serial acquirers.
NDAs signed. Financials verified. Offers managed. Due diligence supported. We work alongside your solicitor and accountant through to completion.
Most managed sales close within 4 to 9 months. Here's exactly what happens.
We take 1–2 weeks to build an indicative valuation and Information Memorandum. You see it before any buyer does.
Anonymised listing goes live. Direct outreach to our buyer network begins. You stay invisible.
Every interested buyer signs an NDA and is qualified for funding and intent. Only the serious ones get to you.
We manage offers, due diligence and contract back-and-forth alongside your solicitor. You sign. You get paid.
An upfront Engagement Fee covers the valuation and Information Memorandum — and is fully credited against the Success Fee at close. If your deal completes, you only ever pay the Success Fee. If the sale figure is below the minimum, the minimum applies.
| Sale price | Engagement fee | Success fee | Minimum total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to €200,000 | €2,000 | 6% | €8,000 |
| €200,000 – €500,000 | €3,000 | 6% to €200k + 4% | €15,000 |
| €500,000 – €1,000,000 | €5,000 | 6% to €200k + 4% | €29,000 |
| €1,000,000 + | Bespoke | By negotiation | — |
Worked example: Your business sells for €300,000. You pay €3,000 at signing, then €13,000 at close (6% × €200k + 4% × €100k = €16,000, less the €3,000 already paid). No VAT — Bizmark is not VAT registered.
Bizmark only takes on managed mandates we can run properly. That means exclusive engagement, mutual investment, and a real timeline to close.
No. Listings are anonymised. Buyers only see the trading name after signing an NDA you've approved.
The exclusive mandate means Bizmark earns the success fee on any sale completed during the term. We discuss specific situations openly — this isn't a gotcha.
You keep the Engagement Fee work product (valuation + Information Memorandum). No success fee is due. The Engagement Fee itself is non-refundable.
Yes. Irish law, Irish courts, Mediation Act 2017 dispute pathway. We'll happily share the template before you commit.
30-minute confidential call. No commitment, no sales pitch. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you.
