Business transfer at fixed fees

    Transfer your business

    Transfer to a qualified successor, without a 5 to 10% commission on the value of your business.

    The situation

    More than 50,000 SMEs will need to find a successor by 2031. 12,000 sellers have no buyer (ORTEQ 2025). 61% have no plan. Many improvise, or pay a broker 5 to 10% of the value — $25,000 to several hundred thousand dollars depending on size.

    NIYA's response

    NIYA works at fixed fees. We prepare the business, we value it, we present it, we match it with a prepared successor, then we support the transaction and the transition. The 2026 launch offer makes the registry free. The Salon Repreneuriat Féminin — March 2027, Laval — is a matchmaking event.

    Transfer services

    Registry of businesses for sale

    Free in 2026

    Description

    Your business is listed in the NIYA registry so it is visible to a qualified successor. In 2026, listing is free (then $250 per year).

    How this helps you

    You are no longer isolated. Without a registry, too many viable businesses stay invisible and close for lack of a buyer — not for lack of value.

    Readiness diagnostic for sale

    From $1,500

    Description

    A status review of the business and of your readiness to sell: what is ready, what is blocking, and what must be corrected before talking price.

    How this helps you

    You avoid going to market too early. A clear diagnostic reduces surprises in due diligence and shortens the time to sale.

    Transfer mandate at fixed fees

    From $3,000

    Description

    A complete mandate, with no broker percentage. Fixed fees based on the value of the business — confirmed on the call, from $3,000. Six steps, from the status review through to continuity after the sale.

    How this helps you

    You know what it costs before you start. No 5 to 10% commission eroding the proceeds of the sale. You sell to someone prepared, not to the first person who appears.

    • Diagnostic — status review of the business and of readiness to sell
    • Valuation — three methods to anchor a defensible price
    • Memo — 15 to 20-page memorandum to present the business
    • Matching — introduction to a qualified successor
    • Transaction — support through to closing
    • Transition plan — continuity after the sale

    Monthly support

    From $1,000/month

    Description

    Monthly follow-up during preparation, matching, or transition — so you do not carry the sale decisions alone.

    How this helps you

    Selling a business is not a one-day event. You keep someone who knows the file, the timeline, and the points of friction.

    Amounts in Canadian dollars. Taxes extra.
