Request Introduction (Registry)How Introductions Work
Each profile above is an owner WETYR has spoken with who is open to an introduction to a registry buyer whose buy box fits. WETYR does not represent these owners, does not market their businesses, and does not prepare or send offering documents for them. Identifying details (business name, exact location, customer names) are removed for confidentiality. When a registry member fits and the owner agrees, we make the introduction. From there the owner and buyer deal directly, each with their own attorney, CPA and, if they want one, their own licensed broker or advisor. Membership in the Buyer Registry is free; vetting takes 1 business day. Owners with a business for sale can tell us about it here.
Why These Profiles Are Anonymized
Public marketplaces (BizBuySell, Empire Flippers) optimize for breadth - many buyers see many listings, conversion happens at scale. The trade-off is confidentiality: when a listing is public, employees, customers, and competitors can find out the business is for sale, which routinely costs the seller 10-30% of value through team and customer attrition. WETYR does not list or advertise anyone's business. We only make introductions, only to registry members whose stated buy box fits, and only with the owner's OK. That produces fewer but better conversations on both sides.
For Owners Thinking About Selling
If you are considering selling, the natural starting point is the Exit Score diagnostic. Lower scorers often spend 12-24 months on preparation first because going to market unprepared leaves substantial value on the table. When you are ready, tell us about your business in confidence and we will check it against registry buyers' buy boxes, free. Direct sale to WETYR is also available across our 25 acquisition niches when speed and certainty matter more than hearing from several buyers.
For Buyers: Join The Registry
Get introduced when an owner who fits your buy box is open to talking, plus quarterly multiples reports 48 hours before public release.
Authoritative Sources & Further Reading
WETYR works alongside primary sources, regulators, and industry data providers when working with owners and operators. The references below are the same sources our research team uses when benchmarking multiples, modeling valuations, and stress-testing assumptions. We encourage every owner, buyer, and operator to verify any data point that materially affects their decision against the underlying primary source.
Primary Federal Sources
- U.S. SBA - 7(a) Loan Program for acquisition financing eligibility, terms, and lender list.
- SEC EDGAR for public-company comparables, 10-K disclosures, and recent strategic acquirer filings.
- IRS - Sale of a Business on Section 1060 asset-allocation reporting and tax treatment of asset vs stock sales.
- U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics - Industries at a Glance for wage, employment, and growth data by NAICS code.
- U.S. Census Economic Census for industry size, firm counts, and revenue distributions.
- Federal Reserve Economic Data for prevailing rate environment underwriting.
Standards & Reference Bodies
- AICPA for Quality of Earnings methodology and CPA standards governing transaction-related financial work.
- FINRA Rules and Guidance for understanding when a transaction crosses into broker-dealer territory.
- NACVA business valuation credentialing body and standards (CVA designation).
- USPAP - Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice for valuation engagement standards.
- Investopedia - EBITDA reference page for definitional alignment with our glossary.
- Harvard Business Review - Mergers and Acquisitions archive on integration and post-close value creation.
For deeper transaction-specific data, the GF Data and PitchBook private-company transaction databases publish quarterly multiple ranges by industry size band that we cross-reference against our own pipeline benchmarks. Owners considering a sale should also review the Pepperdine Private Capital Markets Report (free, annual) for current cost-of-capital and lender appetite data across the lower middle market. Buyers underwriting search-fund or holdco theses commonly pair Stanford GSB's Search Fund Study with the IBBA Market Pulse report, which tracks multiples for sub-$50M transactions quarterly. None of these sources replace advice from your own attorney, CPA or licensed advisor on a specific deal, but they give owners and operators the same reference points professional acquirers are using on the other side of the table.
