In brief
GLZR Group is a business acquisition intermediary. It connects business buyers and sellers across the United States, Canada and Latin America. We understand what buyers want to acquire, speak with owners considering a sale, gather initial business information and introduce the parties where there is a potential fit. We earn a buyer-paid success fee when an introduced acquisition closes, under agreed terms. Those conversations are initial qualification. They are not verified financials, confirmed funding or due diligence.
The role
The work is sourcing, initial qualification and introductions. It is not buying the company, supplying the purchase capital, or running the closing.
IBoth sides
Sourcing is a conversation with buyers and with owners. Some opportunities come from owners who have not listed the business. Where a buyer agreement permits it, we also introduce qualifying brokered or banked opportunities. An introduction is not a statement that the opportunity is exclusive, unlisted or new to the buyer.
IIBoth sides
With buyers we cover industries, locations, size, criteria, capital, decision-making and readiness, and we agree what a qualifying introduction is. With sellers we cover the business, the reason for considering a sale, the timeline, and initial figures. We do not independently verify financial statements or complete due diligence.
IIIBoth sides
Where there is a potential fit, we introduce the parties. Buyers, sellers and their appointed advisors then handle underwriting, formal valuation, due diligence, financing, legal documentation and closing. Speaking with both sides does not mean GLZR formally represents both.
Two conversations
The same firm can speak with both sides without treating that as dual representation. The buyer agreement sets the success-fee terms. Sellers are not charged GLZR’s sourcing and introduction fee. Other costs of a sale are separate.

Introduction brief
This tool formats what GLZR asks for in an initial conversation. It does not create a listing, a mandate or an agreement. Nothing is stored on this page. A conversation is not a commitment to buy or sell.

After the call
GLZR’s role stops at sourcing, initial qualification and the introduction. The buyer, the seller and their appointed advisors handle underwriting, formal valuation, due diligence, financing, legal documentation and transaction execution. A conversation with GLZR is not a closing date.
Detailed financials, customer names and contracts are typically shared only after a confidentiality agreement is signed, and only with a party who appears to fit. GLZR shares only information the parties have agreed may be shared. That information is not treated as independently verified.
Our fee is paid by the buyer when an introduced acquisition closes, under agreed terms. No retainers or pay-per-lead charges. Nothing is due for a conversation, or for an introduction that does not close. Exact percentages and what counts as a qualifying introduction stay in the individual agreement. GLZR does not charge sellers for its sourcing and introduction service. Legal, tax and accounting costs of a sale are separate.
Why this conversation happens
These figures describe the market, not GLZR Group’s own activity. They are why buyers ask about cash flow and why owners ask about confidentiality. Sources checked 3 October 2026.
The U.S. Census Bureau’s 2019 Annual Business Survey, reflecting 2018 data, showed that more than half of U.S. business owners were 55 or older. For many of them the question is not whether the business eventually changes hands, but how, when and to whom.
In Q2 2026, IBBA advisors reported 2.0x to 3.1x seller’s discretionary earnings for businesses valued under $2 million, and 4.0x to 5.8x EBITDA from $2 million to $50 million. An introduction is not a valuation. The business valuation calculator and the 2026 multiples dataset are educational estimates, not a formal valuation by GLZR.

The U.S. Small Business Administration lists changes of ownership, complete or partial, as an eligible use of a 7(a) loan, and sets the maximum 7(a) loan amount at $5 million. When a buyer relies on that financing, the lender’s rules shape the documents and the timetable. GLZR does not approve financing or underwrite the loan. The acquisition calculator tests those rules as an educational estimate.

Questions
A business acquisition intermediary sources opportunities, gathers initial information and introduces buyers and sellers where there is a potential fit. GLZR Group does that across the United States, Canada and Latin America. It does not purchase the businesses it introduces, and it does not supply the acquisition capital.
It speaks with the buyer about criteria, capital, decision-making and readiness, and with the owner about the business, the reason for considering a sale and the timeline. It gathers initial information and agrees what may be shared. That is initial qualification, not due diligence.
Our fee is paid by the buyer when an introduced acquisition closes, under agreed terms. No retainers or pay-per-lead charges. Nothing is due for a conversation, or for an introduction that does not close.
Industries, locations, business size, acquisition criteria, capital availability, and who decides. The buyer brief above formats that note. Use the subject “Buyer - GLZR Group”.
What the company does, why a sale is being considered, the timeline, and initial information on revenue, earnings, customers, management and owner involvement, plus valuation expectations and transition preferences. The seller brief above formats that note. Use the subject “Owner - GLZR Group”.
The buyer, the seller and their advisors handle underwriting, formal valuation, due diligence, financing, documents and closing. GLZR’s role is the introduction. An introduction is not a promise that a transaction will close.
No. A conversation is not a listing. The business stays with its owner unless that owner decides to move forward. A buyer is under no obligation to pursue a company that has been introduced.
No. Speaking with both sides does not mean GLZR formally represents both. The services are sourcing, initial qualification and introductions. The success fee is paid by the buyer under the buyer agreement.
