Then you are likely facing the following challenges:
After many aggregators have halted their buying activities, this sales channel is practically closed. The good news: Strategic buyers are still interested in attractive e-commerce companies.
After years in the operational e-commerce business, you now want to secure the value you have created.
In e-commerce companies that have scaled without external capital, the value created by the owner is partially locked within the business (e.g., inventory). This value needs to be unlocked.
You have built a solid foundation in online retail. Further growth would require additional investments, which come with a certain level of risk.
Buyers in e-commerce need to be actively approached, and their positioning must be refined. We take care of that.
The seasonal fluctuations in online retail can become a long-term burden.

The collaboration with Peter and his team was highly professional and led to a successful business sale. Peter impressed with his expertise, commitment, and appreciative communication, which made the entire process much smoother. The sale was completed stress-free and within a short time. I highly recommend him without reservation.
Before working with Venture Advisory Partners, I was unsure whether consulting for a business sale would be worth it. Today, I know that without this investment, the sale would never have been so successful. Mr. Nadolinski and Mr. Balsys exceeded my expectations. Within just eight months, a stress-free sale took place, allowing me to choose the ideal buyer from multiple interested parties.
With great dedication, we built our premium brand in the cat food and cat furniture sector. Thanks to VAP’s support, we received numerous buyer inquiries and found the ideal buyer to carry our vision forward. The sale was professionally managed, resulting in a win-win situation for all parties involved. Without VAP, we would not have achieved this fantastic outcome.
Working with Peter Nadolinski as an external CFO was a real asset. He provided full transparency on our financial situation and identified key levers for increasing profitability. The financial plan he developed gave us, for the first time, a strategic management tool. Peter's expertise and clear communication delivered real added value – highly recommended!
To plan my succession, I was looking for a buyer who would continue my life's work and be a good personal fit. Mr. Nadolinski and his team impressed me with their professionalism and extensive expertise. The sales process was nearly stress-free and successfully completed within nine months. I found the ideal buyer and sold at an attractive price.
Thanks to Peter and his team, we were able to successfully close our seed financing round with suitable investors. Venture Advisory Partners provided us with competent support, helped us structure our case and produced valuable intros. Their expertise was decisive for the entire process. I highly recommend working with every e-commerce founder.
VAP creates a crystal-clear data foundation and analyzes key KPIs to highlight your company’s strengths. In doing so, we conduct an in-depth review of your business and identify value potential that we make tangible for buyers.
Various factors impact the achievable price when selling an online business. How diversified are the sales channels? What percentage of customers are organic? How effectively does the company scale through advertising? How meaningful are the financial statements and annual reports? VAP provides an independent assessment of how well your company is positioned.
Since aggregators have largely withdrawn as buyers, e-commerce founders are now better advised to target strategic investors and ETA (Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition) candidates. VAP has an extensive and reliable network in both categories.
Through a realistic valuation, optimization of financial figures, and a targeted buyer search – we guide you through the entire process.
