Selling your business is one of the biggest financial and personal decisions you'll ever make.
Here’s how Daring Haus Ventures supports owners to ensure the process is seamless.
Sell-Side Advisory
Representing owners through the sale of their business
Most of what determines the outcome happens before a buyer sees the company.
We do the financial work first, take the business to the buyers most likely to value it, and stay in the negotiation through closing.
Each stage is priced separately. Start where it makes sense, stop when you'd like, keep the work either way.
We're paid by the seller. No buyer pays us anything on your deal.

Buyer-Ready Financials
The preparation that makes everything else work
Reconciled books. Cash converted to accrual. Add-backs documented so they hold up. Working capital sorted out. The records a buyer's team will ask for, ready before they ask.
That's what keeps a question during diligence from becoming a price reduction.
Available on its own. If you're two years out, this is where to start.
Valuation
What it’s worth, and why
Value isn't a formula applied to a profit number. It depends on earnings quality, recurring revenue, customer concentration, owner dependency, growth potential — and on who's buying.
A private equity firm building a platform, an individual using SBA financing, and a competitor who wants your customer list will reach very different numbers on the same business.
We show you the range, what's driving it, and what's holding it down.
Real analytical work by a management accountant, not a free estimate. It's also what a buyer's team will test, so it's built to hold up
Marketing Materials
What serious buyers read first
The package a buyer receives usually decides whether you get a call back. We cover financial performance, operations, competitive position, and growth — built on numbers prepared to be examined.
Presentation only helps if it survives scrutiny. Overstating the business costs you ninety days later, when someone checks every figure in it.
Quality of Earnings Analysis
Finding what a buyer would find
A QoE tests what the business actually earns and whether it will keep earning it — normalized EBITDA, add-back support, revenue consistency, margins, customer concentration, cash flow.
Selling: the surprises come up while you can still fix them, not in month four when the buyer knows you're tired.
Buying: it tells you whether the earnings you're paying a multiple on are real.
Traditional QoE engagements run $25,000 to $60,000 — out of reach for most Main Street sellers. We provide a practical version scaled to smaller deals.
Business Development
Finding targets for buyers with defined criteria
The companies that fit your criteria are rarely for sale. They aren't listed anywhere — they're owned by people who might consider the right offer but haven't called a broker.
We go find them: mapping the market, identifying fits, screening them before you spend time, and approaching the owner confidentially.
Which side we're on. Here, the acquirer is our client and pays us. We tell every owner that in the first conversation.
If an owner decides to explore a sale, they should have their own representation — and it won't be us on that transaction. Buy-side and sell-side are never the same company.
Transactions are complex. Preparation makes them manageable.
Whether you're preparing to sell, evaluating an acquisition, or just want to know what your business is worth, the first conversation costs nothing.
