Shownotes

🎙️ Should you name your business when you sell — or keep it under wraps? Damien Fahey and Sam Cherry unpack confidentiality, legacy, and when an open sale makes sense.

Key takeaways:

🔹 Most Tabak sales are confidential — handled via anonymous listings, NDAs, and carefully screened buyers.

🔹 Why stay confidential?

Protect staff morale, reduce competitor pressure, and maintain stability during the sale. Broker “matchmaking” with prequalified buyers often moves faster and closer to asking price.

🔹 Why go public?

If staff are aware of the plans, and the business has a strong brand then going public may increase the buyer pool.
