Is My Business Ready to Sell?

Most Irish business owners who try to sell aren’t prepared — and it costs them. Either the sale falls through during due diligence, the price gets hammered in negotiation, or buyers walk away entirely.

The businesses that sell well, and sell at the right price, share four things: clean financials, low owner dependence, solid customer contracts, and a business that’s growing or stable. This free assessment scores your business across all four areas and tells you exactly where the gaps are.

Takes 2 minutes. You’ll get a readiness score, a breakdown by category, and a personalised action plan — free, with no obligation.

Financial readiness

Buyers will want clean, verifiable financials. How prepared are you?

How up to date are your financial accounts?

Can you clearly separate owner perks from business costs? (e.g. car, phone, travel)

Is revenue recurring, predictable, or heavily project-based?

Operations & systems

A buyer needs to know the business can run without you in the room.

How dependent is the business on you personally?

Are key processes documented (onboarding, delivery, operations)?

Do you use business software a new owner could continue using? (CRM, accounting, ops tools)

Legal & customers

Clean legal footing and a diversified customer base are key buyer concerns.

Are key customer relationships documented in contracts or agreements?

What does your customer concentration look like?

Are there any known legal disputes, unpaid debts, or compliance issues?

Growth & timing

Timing and trajectory affect both price and how quickly a buyer commits.

How would you describe revenue performance over the last 2 years?

What's your personal timeline for completing a sale?
