How it works

Most small businesses sell for a multiple of their earnings — seller’s discretionary earnings or EBITDA. The multiple reflects growth, stability, and industry. This gives a starting range; a real valuation also weighs assets, customer concentration, and trends.

Frequently asked questions

What multiple is realistic?

Many Main Street businesses trade around 2–4× earnings, with higher multiples for faster-growing, less owner-dependent companies. Comparable sales in your specific industry are the best guide.
