What services are provided by VentureGrab?

Beside the automatic matching service provided by the platform, you may also contact us for the following professional services:

• Professional Business Profiling: A high-quality profile is vital for attracting investors. We can help you create and design a presentation deck/business profile that aligns with your growth direction.
• Listing Management: If you are busy, our team can handle the listing process for you. We will upload and optimize your business opportunity for a small token fee.
• Social Media Marketing (Mass Market): We can design custom content and copywriting for social media to create awareness.
• Niche Industry Marketing: For businesses requiring specific industry knowledge, we offer targeted marketing. This requires a minimum 6-month commitment.

Is it free to use VentureGrab?

Yes, it is free to list any business opportunities and browse listings. However, certain premium features, advertising packages, and unlocking buyer contact details require "Tokens" or a paid plan.

Can overseas businesses list on VentureGrab?

Yes. Any business globally can list their opportunities on VentureGrab. You can display your listing with your local currency to accurately show the investment amount required.

I wish to sell my business but want to maintain confidentiality.

No problem. You can list your business anonymously. Simply enter a general description (e.g., "Established F&B in KL") to protect your identity until you are ready to engage with a serious lead.

Why haven’t I received any inquiries?

This is often due to a lack of photos, an unrealistic asking price, or a vague description. Consider refining your listing or using an Advertising Package to boost your visibility.

How do I see who is interested in my business?

Inquiries appear in your "Account Dashboard." To view the full contact details of the interested party, you will need to use VentureGrab tokens.

Can I list a business that is currently losing money?

Yes. Many investors look specifically for turnaround opportunities, but you must set a reasonable asking price. An inflated price for a loss-making business may discourage investors from even initiating a negotiation.

How do I make my business sell faster?

Selling speed is generally determined by Preparedness and Exposure:

• Transparency: Prepare your financial statements and list the reason for selling. Investors move faster when they trust the data.

• Market Realistic Pricing: Ensure your valuation matches the current market sentiment for your industry.

• Active Marketing: Don’t wait for buyers to find you. Use VentureGrab’s Social Media Marketing or Niche Industry Marketing services to actively push your offer to a larger pool of potential investors.

• Responsive Communication: Check your dashboard daily. The faster you respond to an inquiry, the less likely a buyer is to look at a competitor’s listing.

Ensure your listing is detailed and transparent. Additionally, using our Boost/Advertising features or our Social Media Marketing service ensures your listing remains visible to the right audience.

Normally, how long does it take to sell off my business?

The process usually takes between 3 to 8 months, depending on the complexity of the deal, the industry, and the time required for due diligence.

This timeline varies based on:

• Deal Complexity: A simple asset sale is faster than a full company share transfer.

• Industry Demand: Popular industries like F&B or Service sectors may find buyers faster than niche manufacturing.

• Due Diligence: The time it takes for a buyer to audit your accounts and verify licenses.

• Legal & Paperwork: Drafting the Sales & Purchase Agreement (SPA) and obtaining necessary regulatory approvals can add several weeks to the closing.

How do I contact a business owner?

Click the "Request Appointment" or "Contact Seller" button on the listing page. The owner will review your profile and arrange a follow-up meeting.

Does VentureGrab verify the financial data of the listings?

VentureGrab does not perform financial audits or verification of the listings. It is the investor’s sole responsibility to conduct thorough Due Diligence (auditing accounts, verifying licenses, etc.) before any funds are exchanged.

Can I search for businesses in specific regions?

Yes. Our search filters allow you to narrow down opportunities by industry, investment amount, and geographical location (e.g., Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, or international regions).

How do I recruit agents and distributors from the listing?

Business owners who wish to recruit agents for their products or services can list their business specifically under the "Agent" or "Distributor" category. During the listing process, you can select the specific types of agents or distributorships you are looking for to ensure you match with the right candidates.

What if I have different types of agents or distributors?

Businesses may appoint multiple types of agents or distributors to expand market reach effectively, provided roles and territories are clearly defined to ensure smooth growth.

What if a seller or buyer is non-responsive?

If a party is unresponsive after several attempts, please reach out to our support team. We can help verify if the listing is still active.

Who handles the legal paperwork after a deal is agreed upon?

VentureGrab provides Business Facilitation Services, including referrals to legal and valuation professionals to help you close the deal safely and legally.
