Confidentiality can make or break a deal – over 50% of business sales fail when confidentiality is breached. So how do you protect your sellers, buyers, and the integrity of the transaction?

Join us for this week’s BBHQ Become a Better Business Broker live stream on Tuesday at 9am PST / 12pm EST, where we’ll cover How to Handle Confidentiality in Business Sales.

In this session, we’ll discuss:

  1. The broker’s role in maintaining confidentiality – from pre-screening buyers to limiting sensitive details in listings.
  2. Common confidentiality pitfalls – and how to avoid costly mistakes that could derail a deal.
  3. How to create buyer urgency while protecting confidentiality – striking the right balance between marketing and discretion.

Keeping a deal confidential isn’t just about NDAs – it’s about having a clear strategy to control information, manage seller expectations, and protect business value.
