Independent buyer-side M&A advisory
Introducing qualified buyers to business owners.
We represent serious acquisition buyers and confidentially introduce them to business owners considering a sale. There is no cost, no exclusivity, and no obligation for sellers.

by design.

A different mandate
We do not list businesses for sale.
Moz Advisory is a buyer-side acquisition advisor and deal originator. Our work begins with a mandate from a qualified buyerג€”not a listing agreement from a seller. Our role is to identify suitable companies, understand an ownerג€™s perspective in confidence, and make a thoughtful introduction where there is genuine alignment.
How weג€™re different
A more discreet route to buyer interest.
The Moz Advisory model
- Represents buyers only
- Seller pays nothing
- No exclusivity
- Confidential introductions only
- Qualified buyers
- Success fee paid only by buyer
For business owners
A conversation that preserves your options.
No obligation
An introduction is simply an opportunity to consider credible interest. You remain in control at every stage.
No fees
Sellers do not pay Moz Advisory. Our compensation is contingent on a successful closing and paid by the buyer.
No exclusivity
You are free to continue working with an existing advisor or broker, and to explore other paths.
Strict discretion
Conversations are private. Buyer identity and information are shared thoughtfully and only when appropriate.
Qualified counterparties
Every prospective buyer is screened for strategic fit, financial capacity, and seriousness before an introduction.
Additional interest
A confidential approach can surface another well-matched source of acquisition interest without changing your plans.
How it works
Structured.
Never pressured.
There is no assumed outcome. Each step is designed to help you assess an opportunity with appropriate information and complete discretion.

your options?
