Built for Trusted Advisors

Your clients already trust you with their most important decisions. When it's time to sell, the right broker referral is worth serious money — to them and to you.

i
CPAs & Accountants
You see the tax returns and know which of your clients are thinking about exit. One closed deal typically pays $40K–$150K in referral commission.
ii
M&A Attorneys
You handle the documents; we handle buyer marketing, negotiation, and deal management. Complementary roles, aligned incentives, clean referrals.
iii
Wealth Managers
Sale proceeds become AUM. You already lose clients when they exit — partner with us and you stay central to the liquidity event.
iv
Commercial Bankers
You know which borrowers are aging out, winding down, or losing interest. We turn those relationships into successful exits — often SBA-financed.
v
Insurance & Exit Planners
Key-person, buy-sell, and succession work naturally leads to a sale decision. When it does, we execute the transaction with your client's goals intact.
vi
Business Coaches & Consultants
Your engagements often end with "should I sell?" Hand off the transaction cleanly — keep the relationship, earn on the outcome.

The Math

Nexus Bridge charges 10% of transaction value (success-only). You earn 20% of that fee.

Example Deal

$2.5M

Our fee (10%)

Your cut (20%)
$50,000
Most tri-state small business sales close between $500K and $10M. A single active referral relationship typically generates 2–4 closes per year once established.

Common Questions

Is the 20% taken from the seller's proceeds?
No. Your commission comes out of our fee, not the seller's. The seller pays our standard 10% success fee exactly as they would without a referral. Your earnings are invisible to them.
What happens if the deal doesn't close?
Nothing is owed either direction. Our fee is success-only, so if we don't close, we don't get paid — and neither do you. No retainer risk, no clawback, no awkward invoices.
How long until referrals actually pay?
Typical small business sale takes 6–12 months from signed engagement to closing wire. You are paid within 7 days of that wire hitting our operating account. Most partners see their first commission in 8–14 months from first referral.
Do I need a license to earn referral fees?
In most tri-state jurisdictions, passive referral fees on small business brokerage transactions (not real estate) do not require a separate broker license. We recommend confirming with your own counsel. We provide a written partner agreement documenting the arrangement.
Is my referral relationship exclusive?
No. Refer as many or as few as you like. You can also refer to other brokers — we compete on results, not exclusivity clauses.
Can I stay involved in the deal?
Absolutely. For CPAs, attorneys, and wealth managers especially, we want you in the loop — your continued relationship often makes the transaction smoother. We handle the broker work; you keep being the trusted advisor.
What size deals do you take?
We primarily work with businesses doing $500K to $15M in annual revenue with $150K+ in adjusted EBITDA or SDE. Sectors we know well: HVAC, plumbing, distribution, landscaping, restaurants, medical practices, manufacturing, auto repair, and business services.
What geography do you serve?
New Jersey, New York (including NYC boroughs), and Connecticut. We have deep buyer networks across the tri-state for mainstream industries and SBA-qualifiable deals.
