Last updated: January 10th, 2024

Adding a profit and loss (P&L) statement and other documents enhances your listing and inspires buyer confidence. Demonstrate your intent to sell by adding these documents and files during the guided listing process. 

What files do buyers want to see? Include resources such as: 

  • P&L statement
  • Confidential information memorandum (CIM)
  • Pitch deck
  • Seller introduction video 
  • Transition steps document 
  • Living Q&A document 
  • Product demo
  • Customer lists
  • And more

Upload these documents during or after the guided listing process to help your business sell or justify your asking price. See how below. 

Only buyers with startup access can view your acquisition documents.
