Quiet Light
Listing MarketplacesAn advisor-led brokerage for online businesses (ecommerce, SaaS, content, Amazon) whose advisors are former founders and acquirers; listings come with detailed interview-based packages, and the firm handles mid six to eight figure exits.
- Pricing
- Success fee, No listing fee, and buyers pay no direct fee. The firm does not publish a rate card; broker-review roundups (2025 to 2026) consistently report seller commissions starting near 10% under $1M and sliding to roughly 3% at $7M and above. Treat those figures as directional and confirm in the engagement letter.
- Best For
- Buyers who want relationship-driven online-business deal flow with founder-experienced advisors on the sell side, and sellers weighing an advisor-led exit against a marketplace listing

Pros
- Advisors are former founders and acquirers, so listing packages tend to be substantive rather than templated
- No listing fee and a commission structure that review roundups place at or below industry norms
- Long operating history in online-business brokerage with consistent third-party regard
Cons
- No published rate card; commission figures circulate only through third-party roundups
- Advisor-led model means less self-serve browsing than marketplace-style platforms
- Online-business inventory rarely fits SBA-financed, Main Street theses
- Most detailed reviews sit on broker-comparison sites with lead-gen incentives
What Searchers Say
Review roundups from 2025 to 2026 are consistently positive on advisor quality and preparation, with the firm claiming that a large share of listings sell at or above asking. Criticisms center on commission levels and occasional communication gaps during processes. Firsthand SBA-searcher discussion is thin, consistent with its online-business focus.
