Create a Listing FAQs

You can advertise your business to more than one million buyers a month by creating a listing on BusinessesForSale.com for the amount indicated below:

This is a one-time fee and we will not take any commission. Included in this price is a free online business valuation and dedicated support.

For an additional fee our team will craft the listing for you and send out an email campaign to potential buyers championing your business.

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.

We will offer you an opportunity to renew your listing two weeks before your advertising period expires. However, you can sign into your account any time after your expiry date and make your business listing live and visible to buyers again.

Sign into your account to make changes or renew your listing.

If you want to advertise your business, head to our sell a business page and follow the steps set out. There are details there of the process from start to finish and you should find the package that suits your needs.

You can make changes to your listing at any time. Sign in and monitor all inquiries made on your listing anytime during your advertising period by signing into your account.

Please note that it may take up to one working day for your changes to appear on your account.

Buyers can boost their chances of finding a buyer by choosing one or both of the following membership upgrades:

• Professional Prospectus: Our business sales copy team will rewrite your listing based on our long experience of how to attract buyers.
• Email Campaign: Target buyers proactively with an email campaign promoting your business.

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.

Currently, this is not offered. We advise Private Sellers 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 live.

For instance, a buyer based in the US who is interested in buying a business in Canada will filter their search results by businesses based in Canada, not the US.
