At Creative Biz Exchange, some of our best acquisition opportunities come through trusted relationships. If you know a business owner who may be considering a sale, we'll handle the rest — and you may earn a referral fee when the deal closes.
About the Program
The Creative Biz Exchange Referral Partner Program is built for professionals and business owners who regularly cross paths with companies considering a sale, exit, or acquisition. We work with a network of investors actively seeking to acquire established businesses across a variety of industries.
Once you introduce us to a qualified business owner, our team takes over — evaluating the opportunity, managing the acquisition process, and keeping the relationship protected every step of the way.
If your referral results in a successfully completed acquisition, you may earn a 5%–10% referral fee, based on the terms of the referral agreement.
