Why Trelus?
It’s easy to follow.
There’s nothing easy about selling a business, but we’ve made sure that every step and task feels clear and achievable. And if you’re ever feeling stuck or confused, we’re here to help.
It’s comprehensive.
It’s not about just finding a buyer. Will your business even be ready to sell when it’s time? How will your employees be affected? What will you do next? There’s a lot to consider, and it’s all important.
It’s based on hundreds of exits.
Everything — from the roadmap to the recommendations — is based on exits from owners like you. Avoid their pitfalls and learn from their successes.

Questions you might have
When should I consider starting in relation to my target exit date?
If you’re considering an exit any time within the next five years, you can get started. You might not even know if anyone would consider buying your business. That’s ok. Part of the process is to ensure a business is ready for sale. Wherever you are in your exit journey, we can help.
Is this for a specific type of business or industry?
No, Trelus works for any type of business and any type of owner. You might be at square one and not even sure if you want to sell. You might have made progress and know where you need support. No matter where you are right now, this step-by-step roadmap can help.
Does Trelus directly facilitate the sale of businesses?
No, Trelus isn’t a broker or a bank. We don’t push you to sell, and we don’t get a fee if you do. Trelus focuses on the process leading up to the sale, so you can make an informed decision. However, some partners in our curated network can help you cross the finish line.
What happens if I get stuck along the way?
You can always contact us to get connected with a Trelus Success Manager. We know this can be an overwhelming process, and we’re here to help.
How long does it take to complete the Exit Roadmap?
The time it takes really depends on you and your goals. The Exit Roadmap is designed for owners who are 1-5 years from their exit. Some owners will complete the Roadmap in 8-12 months. Some owners, with a longer exit time horizon, will go more slowly. The Exit Roadmap gives actionable insights to increase the value of your business and to help you plan, prepare and organize for this important goal. The time it takes is up to you. You are in control!
