Why work with Vision Fox?
We know you’ve put a lot of time, energy, and money into your business. You want to get the best outcome—not just any deal. That’s where business brokerage services like ours help.

- Keep your goals front and center

- Work discreetly and professionally
Let’s take a closer look at how our approach supports you from start to finish.
Our approach: The Vision Fox selling process
Every business is different, so we don’t use a one-size-fits-all method. The Vision Fox selling process is built around you—your timeline, your priorities, and your ideal outcome.
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Getting to know your business
Before anything else, we take time to understand:
- What your business does
- How it makes money
- What makes it stand out
- Your reason for selling
This helps us position your business in the best possible light when it’s time to go to market.
Step 2: Valuation and pricing strategy
Our team provides a realistic, data-backed estimate of what your business is worth. This ensures you:
- Don’t undervalue your business
- Don’t scare off buyers with an unrealistic price
- Get the return you deserve
We also explain how we arrived at the valuation, so you feel confident moving forward.
Step 3: Creating a selling plan
Next, we build a personalized business selling plan. This includes:
- A clear marketing strategy
- A list of qualified buyer targets
- A timeline that works for you
We know timing can be personal—whether you’re ready now or preparing for a future exit, we adapt to your needs.
Step 4: Marketing your business (confidentially)
Our marketing is professional, effective, and discreet. We don’t broadcast your sale. Instead, we use:
- Confidential buyer outreach
- Pre-screened buyer networks
- Carefully written business summaries
We protect your privacy and make sure only serious buyers get access.
Step 5: Buyer screening and negotiation
We manage the buyer conversations so you don’t have to. This includes:
- Screening buyers for financial strength and intent
- Coordinating meetings and document sharing
- Negotiating terms that align with your goals
You stay in control, but we do the legwork.
Step 6: Closing the deal
When a buyer is ready, we help finalize the deal:
- Coordinating legal and financial documents
- Keeping the timeline on track
- Supporting you through closing
You’ll never feel lost or left behind. We make sure you’re informed every step of the way.
