Support

Over 3 to 6 months, we implement the action plan with you, until your SME is ready to face a buyer.

Is your company not yet ready to be sold? That is the case for most of the SMEs we meet: the business depends too much on its owner, the accounts do not show the true profitability, the team or the ways of working are not yet structured. Over 3 to 6 months as a rule, we work with you, on your premises, to address these points one by one and optimise your company's valuation before talking to a buyer.

How it works

1. The starting point

We start from the conclusions of the Valuation & Sale Programme: the levers are identified, quantified and ranked by priority. If you have not followed the programme, a scoping assessment is carried out in the first month.

2. Implementation, every month

At least two days a month by your side: one day on your premises with you and your team, one day working on your files. A 90-day action plan, reviewed at every session.

3. The finish line

A company that stands up to a buyer's questions, a ready file and a defensible valuation. You remain free to sell to whoever you want — including someone other than us.

What we work on with you

The six topics that come up in almost every due diligence — and that cost you price when they are not resolved.

Over-reliance on the owner

Delegate customers, quotes and suppliers so the business runs without you.

Accounts and profitability

Accounts that show the true profitability: adjustments, private expenses, owner's salary, payment cycle.

Team and organisation

A second line of managers, written roles, up-to-date employment contracts.

Customers and contracts

Reduce concentration on a few customers, formalise contracts and general terms.

Processes and tools

Quotes, invoicing, reminders and customer follow-up written down, then automated — with AI where useful.

File and data room

The documents a buyer will ask for, gathered and up to date, for a due diligence without nasty surprises.

A clear price, fixed before we start

From CHF 3,000 excl. VAT per month

At least two days a month, at CHF 1,500 excl. VAT per day. Usual duration: 3 to 6 months. The number of days is agreed with you before we start, based on the work to be done, and does not change along the way without your agreement.

One single contact, who knows your file from start to finish.

Full confidentiality: your employees, customers and suppliers are informed only if you decide so.

No sales mandate, no commission, no exclusivity.

If Vendre-Entreprise.ch acquires your company at the end of the support, the fees paid are deducted from the purchase price.

The support is right for you if

  • You plan to sell your company within 6 to 36 months.
  • The assessment or the programme has highlighted issues that would cost you price.
  • You want a partner who does the work with you, not one more report.

It is not needed if

  • Your company is already ready and matches our criteria: we then make you a direct acquisition offer, at no cost.
  • You are only looking for someone to find a buyer: the support is neither a sales mandate nor a commission.
