Business Broker Membership – Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a membership?

A Standard Membership is $49.95 per month, and a Premium Membership is $79.95 per month. There is also a one-time account setup fee of $24.95.

What's the difference between a Standard and Premium Membership?

With either membership you can post up to 25 businesses for sale listings. If you have more than 25 listings, each additional block of 20 listings is only $15 per month. Each listing includes a photo, but with a Premium Membership you can add multiple photos and attachments (NDA, additional photos) to your listings.

However the main difference is that the Premium Membership provides more exposure to your Business Broker Directory listing. You will be listed above Basic Members in the Business Broker Directory search results. You also will appear at the top of the business-for-sale search results for searches in your state (on a random, rotating basis with other Premium Members from your state).

Also included with your listing is one free Showcase Choice upgrade. Choose one listing to feature prominently in search results, and swap the upgrade to different listings whenever you wish.

Can I pay by check?

Sorry, we can only accept payment by VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.

Will my credit card information be secure?

The BizQuest.com website is fully secure, and we use a leading class transaction provider to encrypt and process your credit card information. You can rest assured that your information will be safe with BizQuest.

How will BizQuest market my listings to potential buyers?

BizQuest is the original business-for-sale site, founded in 1994. Over the past decades we’ve built up many high quality marketing channels. We appear at the top of Google searches for many popular searches and have a variety of internet marketing processes, focused on reaching high-quality motivated buyers.

In addition, BizQuest offers a free "search agent” service that emails new listings every day to tens of thousands of potential buyers.

And, perhaps most importantly, we are making many improvements to the BizQuest mobile and web products, and we believe we have the most powerful and easy-to-use business for sale marketplace. Our users seem to agree- return visitors are increasing rapidly and we have a large group of loyal and serious users.

Does BizQuest offer a guarantee?

Yes! We offer a full 30-day, money-back guarantee. If at any time during the first 30 days after you have signed up you decide that you are unsatisfied with BizQuest's service, just let us know and we will cancel your membership and give you a full refund, including your setup fee.

Is BizQuest a business broker?

No. BizQuest is in no way directly involved in business brokerage or mergers and acquisitions. We provide an online marketplace where buyers and sellers of businesses can meet.

How can I get more exposure and leads with listing upgrades?
  • Showcase Choice – this subscription gives you a set of upgrades which will allow you to prominently feature listings in search results. Rotate the upgrades from listing to listing whenever you wish. Showcase ads receive, on average, 3 times more leads than basic listings.
  • Showcase Plus Email – this upgrade gives you the same listing-appearance benefits as Showcase Choice, but it also includes an Email Blast which sends a dedicated email to buyers looking for businesses like yours, as well as Prospect List, so you can proactively approach buyers.
  • Diamond Listing Upgrade – Our most powerful upgrade, Diamond listings receive up to 5 or 6 times as many leads as basic listings. You receive very top placement in search results, with a large ad footprint, along with a reinforcement ad later in the search results, and many more features.

How do BizBuySell / BizQuest Upgrade Bundles Work?

BizQuest has partnered with BizBuySell to provide you the ability to upgrade a listing to the Diamond level on both BizBuySell and BizQuest at a reduced rate, saving you money while extending your buyer audience significantly. This “bundled” upgrade is centrally managed from BizBuySell’s BrokerWorks and renews monthly. However, you can turn off renewal at any time.

With a Diamond Bundle, you will receive all the Diamond level benefits of a listing on both BizBuySell and BizQuest, but at a discounted rate. Sign up from your BizBuySell BrokerWorks Manage Listings page.
