Confidential · Experienced · Seller-Side Only
Most business owners only sell once. The decisions you make in the next few months will shape the rest of your financial life. Dan Humke has guided owners through this process more times than he can count — and he works exclusively for sellers, never buyers.
Why This Moment Matters
An estimated 12 million Baby Boomer business owners will transition or sell their companies over the next decade. Buyers — from private equity groups to individual entrepreneurs — have more capital than deals to put it into. For a well-prepared seller, that's leverage.
But leverage only works if you know how to use it. The difference between a business that sells at full value and one that sits on the market for years — or never sells at all — comes down to preparation, timing, and who's in your corner.
Learn the ProcessWhat Dan Handles for You
Most owners keep running their business during the sale process — because we handle everything else. Here's what that looks like in practice.
We start with a confidential analysis of your financials — what your business actually earns, and what buyers in today's market are paying for businesses like yours. No cost. No obligation. Just an honest number.
Your employees, customers, and competitors never know you're considering a sale — until you decide they should. We market your business through confidential channels to qualified, pre-screened buyers only.
You've built the business. We handle the offers, the back-and-forth, the due diligence requests, the timeline, and the paperwork — so you can stay focused on operations and get to closing day with as little disruption as possible.
Your Biggest Concern, Answered
This is the first question almost every owner asks — and it's a legitimate one. An employee who hears a rumor about a sale might start job hunting. A competitor who catches wind might use it against you. A key customer might get nervous.
That's why confidentiality isn't just a feature of this process — it's the foundation of it. Every prospective buyer signs a non-disclosure agreement before they see a single financial figure or hear the name of your business. Your identity is protected until you decide it shouldn't be.
We've done this for a lot of owners. Not one has ever regretted asking the question.
No buyer sees your financials, your location, or your business name without signing a confidentiality agreement first.
We qualify buyers for financial capacity and seriousness before we ever make an introduction. No tire-kickers.
We share more detail with buyers as they move through the process — only when it makes sense to do so.
You're in control of timing. We don't disclose anything without your knowledge and approval.
Who We Work With
Dan works with owners across a wide range of industries. The business doesn't have to be glamorous — it has to be real, profitable, and yours.
Don't see your industry? If you own a profitable business, there's likely a buyer for it. Let's talk.
From Sellers Who've Been Here
"I'd been running my business for 22 years and had no idea where to start. I assumed I'd have to sell to a competitor or just close the doors. Dan walked me through the whole picture — turns out there was real demand for what I'd built. We closed in about eight months at a number I didn't think was possible."— Former owner, commercial HVAC company, Front Range Colorado
"The thing I was most worried about was my team finding out before we were ready. Dan handled everything in a way that kept the process completely quiet until I decided to tell them. Not a single person knew until I was ready to announce it. That alone was worth everything."— Former owner, multi-location med spa, Denver area
No Obligation. Completely Confidential.
A conversation with Dan costs nothing and commits you to nothing. It's just an honest conversation about your business, your goals, and what a sale would realistically look like.
