How the Handover Works

Orderly, plannable, on your terms.

Succession works best when it proceeds without pressure. From the first enquiry to secured continuation: we accompany every step at your pace, according to your wishes.

  1. Confidential conversation

    We talk discreetly and without obligation: no sales pressure, no mountain of paperwork upfront. You describe what is on your mind; we explain how we work. Everything stays between us.

  2. Fair, transparent valuation

    No anonymous online formula. We develop a solid valuation indication in a personal conversation: transparent, easy to follow, based on real numbers and open questions.

  3. Structured handover

    The handover proceeds in an orderly and plannable way. You decide your own role: a clean exit or a supported transition over an agreed period. No pressure, no expectations imposed from outside.

  4. Continuation & stability

    We hold permanently. Your business remains independent, leadership continuity is secured, and the financial backing gives your team confidence, today and in the years that follow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What owners ask us.

What happens to my staff?

Your team stays. We do not acquire businesses to rebuild them. No redundancies, no restructuring from outside. The workforce carries on exactly as it knows.

Do I have to leave right away?

No. You set the pace. Whether you step back immediately after the handover or stay on for a transition period, we agree that together, in writing.

What if I change my mind?

Until a contract is signed, everything remains non-binding. No pressure, no fine print that commits you before you are ready.

How long does it take?

Most handovers take between three and twelve months from the first conversation to completion. How long it takes for you depends on your business and your wishes, not our calendar.

Does my name stay?

Yes. The name, the brand and the identity of your business are preserved. No renaming, no absorption into a corporate group.

Who leads after me?

We work that out together, in good time: either with a candidate from your own team or with a managing director we help find who fits your business. We do not make that decision alone.

Will anyone find out?

Only if you want them to. All conversations and documents are treated in strict confidence. Without your explicit consent, we speak to nobody: neither staff, nor customers, nor competitors.

I want to sell my business and find a successor. How does that work?

The first step is a confidential conversation: no commitment, no paperwork upfront. From there, we develop a solid valuation together. If both sides agree, we draw up a handover plan that ensures your business transfers in an orderly way, on your terms. The goal is for you to sell your business securely: with a successor who stays, and on terms you and your team can stand behind.
