## Media
Tony van Camp talks business sales with Heather du Plessis-Allan on Newstalk ZB every week.

## Confidentiality method
Almost every sale is conducted off market. Buyers are shown a blind profile first, giving sector, region and earnings band with no detail that identifies the business. Every potential buyer is vetted face to face on two criteria, the financial means to complete and the skillset to run the business, and signs a confidentiality agreement before receiving anything beyond the blind profile. Information is then released in stages against demonstrated intent: a preliminary overview, then detailed trading information, then the commercially sensitive core under due diligence. Staff, customers and competitors are not informed until the vendor chooses, usually once a buyer is unconditional or close to it.

## Articles
- [What is my Auckland business actually worth?](/articles/what-is-my-business-worth/): A business in the $1 million to $15 million range is valued on its pre-tax earnings and the risk attached to those earnings continuing without you. In practice that lands between a 1x and 5x multiple. This explains what moves a business within that range.
- [How to sell a business in New Zealand, start to finish](/articles/how-to-sell-a-business-nz/): Selling a business in New Zealand can take anywhere from three months or more. Depending on the type of business and the amount of perceived risk will govern the size of the audience and their appetite to transact quickly.
- [Selling without your staff, customers or competitors finding out](/articles/selling-without-your-staff-finding-out/): A confidential sale works by controlling who knows what, and when. The business is presented first as a blind profile with no identifying detail, buyers are vetted and sign a confidentiality agreement before anything sensitive is released, and the rest comes out in stages.
- [What does a business broker actually do, and what do they charge?](/articles/what-does-a-business-broker-do/): A business broker values the business, prepares it for scrutiny, finds and vets buyers, runs the negotiation and holds the deal together through due diligence. In New Zealand they are licensed under the Real Estate Agents Act 2008 and are usually paid a success-based commission.
- [Due diligence: what a buyer will ask for, and how to be ready](/articles/due-diligence-what-buyers-ask-for/): Due diligence should be a process of verification, not discovery. If there’s been an offer made to buy the business, that offer should have been based on all the facts to arrive at that value. Due diligence will verify those facts to ascertain whether the business will run the same, worse or better under new ownership.
