Team up with a Business Broker
Our specialisation is in Accounting, Financial Planning, General Insurance, Legal, Mortgage brokering, Book keeping, Rent rolls, Construction and Building, Import/export (Wholesale), Manufacturing, Hospitality, Medical and mostly any business that is saleable and profitable.
At Wyse Advisory, we bring over 17 years of hands on experience in business brokering, business advisory, and strategic business exits. Led by Senior Business Broker Justin Wyse, our team has helped numerous business owners across Australia successfully buy, grow, and sell their businesses – particularly in high net worth industries like professional services, hospitality, import/export, real estate and wholesale/distribution.
We specialise in mid market transactions, often ranging from $500,000 to $10 million+, and our experience covers everything from preparing a business for sale, valuations, buyer and seller matching, negotiations, due diligence, and deal structuring—whether it’s an asset sale, share sale, or merger.
Our point of difference is in our data driven approach to business valuation, our deep network of qualified buyers, and our proven strategies for maximising value at the time of succession. With strong referral partnerships across legal, accounting, lending, and property advisory circles, we deliver a full service, end to end brokering experience built on trust, transparency, and results!
Whether you’re a business owner planning your exit, or a buyer looking to acquire, we offer the expertise and frameworks to guide you through every step of the transaction.
Yes, we typically operate on a hybrid fee model that includes a modest retainer to commence our engagement, and a success fee upon achieving a positive outcome—usually a successful sale, acquisition, or a merger.
At Wyse Advisory, we believe in aligning our incentives with yours. The retainer covers the upfront value we bring through business valuations, preparation of sale documentation, buyer research, and strategic execution of a sale. The success fee is only payable when we complete a transaction—ensuring you only pay the bulk of fees when value is delivered.
This structure is common in the business brokerage, M&A, and exit planning industry and ensures:
- Commitment from both parties to drive the process forward
- Skin in the game from us as your business broker
- Clear and measurable success milestones
Whether you’re selling a business, buying a business, or planning an exit strategy, our flexible fee structures are tailored to suit your needs, depending on the size, complexity, and timing of the engagement.
