Free valuation

We build your exit strategy
Positioning, add-backs, growth story, and buyer targets. We package your business the way sophisticated buyers actually diligence it.
We run the whole sale process
Confidential outreach to our buyer network, LOIs, diligence, negotiation. You keep running the business. Less than a week to market.
You close and get paid
We drive to closing, structure the earn-out or all-cash terms, and only get paid when you do.
Built for founders. Feared by lowballers.
You run the business. We run the deal.
Selling a company is a full-time job. We do it so revenue doesn't dip during your process, and your multiple doesn't either.
Multiple buyers. Real competition.
One buyer is a negotiation. Five buyers is an auction. We build tension between qualified acquirers so you don't leave money on the table.
100% confidential until close.
Your team, customers, and vendors don't hear about the sale from anyone but you. Buyer NDAs, redacted teasers, staged data reveal.
We speak SDE, EBITDA, add-backs, working capital.
Owner-to-owner, no banker jargon. Buyers take us seriously because we know your P&L cold before we pitch it.
In their own words.
I got 6 offers in 3 weeks. D84 ran a real process and got me 22% over the number I had in my head.
Zero drama on my end. My team never knew we were selling until it closed. They know the M&A game cold.
Every other broker asked for a $15K retainer. D84 charged me nothing until we wired. That's the whole tell.
