When it comes to advertising your business on BusinessesForSale.com, you can create a listing for the below costs:
This is a one-time fee and we will not take any commission. Included in this price are a free online valuation and dedicated support.
You can pay an additional fee in order to have us send out an email campaign to potential buyers about your business or have our professional team write your listing for you.
Can I remain anonymous when selling?
Yes. BusinessesForSale.com recognises that selling a business is a sensitive process and we respect the privacy of sellers.
As a seller, you do not have to reveal specific details about your business for sale – such as the name of the business or its exact location. Also, you don’t need to reveal any contact details such as your email address, telephone number or name. All messages from buyers are delivered to you through the BusinessesForSale.com email system. This means that your anonymity can be protected at all times.
How do buyers make contact with me?
Buyers send an email directly to you by clicking the ‘Contact Seller’ button on your listing. All messages from buyers are delivered to you through the BusinessesForSale.com email system. You are able to screen all messages before replying.
Please note, when advertising on the free trial, some of the buyer’s contact details will be removed.
How do I monitor / improve my listing?
As soon as your business goes live on the site you can sign in and make changes to your listing.
Please note: when you submit a listing for the first time and when you submit a change, it may take up to one working day for our customer services team to process.
At any time during your advertising period you can sign in and monitor all enquiries made on your listing.
How do I renew my listing?
Two weeks before the expiry date of your advertising period, you will be offered the opportunity to renew your listing. However, you can sign into your account any time after your expiry date and make your business listing live again.
Sign into your account to make changes or renew your listing.

How do I change or update my account details?

What membership/upgrade packages are available
We have two options available to sellers that are looking to upgrade their membership:
- Professional Prospectus: Our business sales copy team will rewrite your listing to a professional prospectus standard.
- Email Campaign: Target buyers proactively with an email campaign promoting your business.
How do I create multiple listings?
Private Sellers can do so from their account by using the "Create New listing" button. From there, select the country where the business is located. Each listing must be uploaded individually and will be linked to the country in which it is based.
Brokers can add the listings manually or via a data feed upload.
Can I create duplicate listings on different countries?
Currently, this is not offered. We advise Private Seller against having multiple listings in different countries for the same business. Buyers looking for businesses in certain countries will search for them in those specific countries not in the country they are based.
E.g.: a buyer based in France interested to buy a business in USA will search for it on the USA page, not the France page.
Will my listing appear in Google?
Yes, your listing will appear in Google. Your listing will, however, have an increased chance of gaining visibility the more detail you include about your business. Content-rich listings do much better in search engines than listings with little or no content in them.
In order to have your listing rank as well as possible, take advantage of Professional Prospectus service that will get your listing written to the best possible standards.
