To find a business broker in Australia who can sell your eCommerce business globally, you’ll want someone with:
- A track record of cross-border transactions
- A deep network of international buyers
- Experience with online, SaaS, and DTC businesses
- The ability to handle valuation, marketing, due diligence, and legal handover
Here’s a step-by-step guide, plus a shortlist of reputable brokers.
Step-by-Step: How to Find the Right Broker
1. Prioritise Global Reach
Not all brokers have international buyer networks. Look for:
- Listings on international marketplaces
- Past deals involving buyers from the US, UK, Europe, Asia
- SEO-optimized global presence (not just AU-focused)
2. Check Their Industry Focus
For eCommerce, look for brokers who specialise in:
- Shopify/DTC brands
- Amazon FBA
- SaaS or subscription boxes (if applicable)
3. Ask the Right Questions
When interviewing brokers, ask:
- “What % of your deals involve international buyers?”
- “Do you list on marketplaces like Empire Flippers, Flippa, or Acquire.com?”
- “Can I see case studies or testimonials from cross-border deals?”
- “How do you handle buyer due diligence across jurisdictions?”
4. Review Their Marketing Strategy
A great broker will:
- Package your business in a polished sale memorandum
- Target qualified buyers, not just list and pray
- Offer valuation advice with benchmarks
