The Story Behind SMB.co: A Vision for Business for Sale Online

SMB.co was born out of a personal challenge faced by Joe Brown, our Co-founder & CEO. After building and eventually selling his first small business, Joe discovered firsthand how difficult and confusing the selling process can be. Like many owners, he assumed that with enough preparation, selling his business would be a straightforward task. However, he quickly realized that there were few resources available to help business owners navigate the complexities of selling.

Joe didn’t know what his business was worth, where to find reliable buyers, or how to secure the legal and acquisition support needed to close the deal. These obstacles are all too common for small business owners, and unfortunately, they often result in businesses never reaching a successful sale. In fact, 80% of small businesses never sell.

This experience inspired Joe, Brit, and Mike to create a platform that simplifies the buying and selling process. At SMB.co, we’re focused on providing small business owners with the resources, transparency, and control they need to make confident decisions about the future of their business for sale online.
