Sell Your Agency
Sell Your Agency
A serious, seller-first way to exit your agency
Selling an agency is not just a transaction. It’s the handover of relationships, reputation, staff livelihoods, and years of your own life.
If you’re here, you’re probably not browsing casually. You’re either actively considering a sale, or you’re close enough that you want to understand how this would actually work – without sales pressure or half-truths.
Agencies.co exists to give agency owners a clear, controlled, and seller-led route to market.
Who this is for (and who it isn’t)
This is for you if:
- you own a marketing, digital, creative, or specialist agency
- you’re considering a full sale of the business
- you care who buys your agency, not just the price
- you want to run a proper process, not a rushed fire sale
- you value discretion and control
This is not for you if:
- x you’re looking to raise capital or sell a small minority stake
- x you want to “test the market” publicly
- x you’re price-shopping brokers for the fastest exit
- x your agency isn’t yet at a stage where buyers would engage seriously
Being clear about this upfront protects everyone – especially you.
What selling through Agencies.co actually looks like
Agencies.co is a seller-first platform, not a traditional brokerage.
Initial orientation
We understand your agency, your goals, and whether selling now makes sense.
Positioning & preparation
Your agency is positioned correctly for the type of buyer you want – financially and narratively.
Controlled buyer outreach
Buyers are sourced selectively, not blasted via mass lists.
Conversations & negotiation
You stay in control. We manage momentum, filtering, and reality.
Heads of terms to completion
From agreement through to completion, with clarity on structure and expectations.
This is designed to maximise outcomes without turning the process into a circus.
Typical timelines (realistic, not optimistic)
Agency sales rarely happen overnight – and anyone promising that is usually cutting corners.
Some deals move faster. Many take longer. The right outcome matters more than speed.
How buyers are sourced (and filtered)
We don’t “list and hope”.
Buyers are introduced based on:
- agency size and specialism
- growth profile and margins
- founder goals post-sale
- cultural and operational fit
That includes:
- strategic buyers
- operator-led groups
- holdcos with relevant platforms
We prioritise serious, funded buyers who understand agencies – not opportunists wasting your time.
Confidentiality isn’t optional – it’s foundational
A poorly handled sale can damage:
staff morale
client confidence
deal leverage
This is why confidentiality is built into the process from day one.
Your business stays stable while options are explored.
Fees (transparent, no hiding)
We don’t believe in vague pricing or surprises at the end.
Exact terms depend on the size and complexity of the agency, but everything is discussed upfront, clearly, and in writing.No games. No last-minute changes.
Why agency owners trust Agencies.co
This isn’t about doing the most deals. It’s about doing the right deals – properly.
