Sell-side advisory · Any strong business · US & Canada
You'll only sell this business once. Sentinel Transitions runs the process the biggest buyers hope you'll never learn: qualified buyers in competition, confidentiality by policy, and a closing built around your price and your terms — your team, your people, your timeline.
Why owners call us first
Our family firms sit on the other side of these deals every day — sourcing acquisitions for the most acquisitive buyers in healthcare and beyond. We know how buyers underwrite, where they stretch, and what kills deals in diligence. When we sell, that knowledge works for you.
No broker's "for sale" page, no blast to a mailing list. Your business is presented — under NDA — to buyers qualified for your size, sector, and geography.
A single unsolicited offer is the most expensive deal you'll ever accept. A run process with real alternatives is how owners get paid for what they built.
Rollover equity, earn-outs, staff protection, your years of transition — we negotiate the whole structure, and we've read these agreements from both sides.
How it works
From first call to close, most engagements run four stages. You stay in control at every gate — nothing is shared, no one is contacted, without your written go-ahead.
A confidential valuation read based on live buyer behavior — not a formula. Free, and yours to keep either way.
We fix the two or three things that actually move value, build your story, and assemble the data buyers will ask for.
Qualified buyers, under NDA, in parallel. Offers are compared on price, structure, and fit — and you choose.
Diligence managed, terms defended, no late-stage surprises. We've seen every re-trade trick — they don't work on us.
Questions owners actually ask
Most strong businesses trade on a multiple of adjusted earnings — and the range is wide. The same business can price very differently depending on buyer type, revenue quality, real estate, and how the process is run. We give you a confidential read based on what buyers are actually paying right now.
No. A run process puts DSOs, private buyers, and individual owner-operators in competition — and you choose on price and terms, including your staff, your customers, and how long you stay on.
Confidentiality is policy, not a promise. Buyers are qualified and under NDA before they learn your name. Your team, patients, and competitors hear nothing until you decide they should.
Nothing. The valuation conversation is free and confidential. If we work together, our economics are success-based — we're paid when your deal closes.
Yes — the owners who exit best start 6 to 24 months early. Knowing your number and understanding buyer appetite costs nothing and removes the pressure later.
