📓Overview

Partial Sales allow advisors to list or acquire a segment of a book of business — without going through the full Meeting Room process.

This feature gives both growth- and succession-oriented advisors the flexibility to buy or sell smaller portions of a practice while maintaining control and confidentiality.

Partial Sales are only visible to advisors within your division or region.

🧐 How It Works

  1. Create a Listing:
    Advisors can list a portion of their book without needing to create a full deal or Meeting Room.

  2. Visibility:
    Only advisors within your division/region will see your listing.

  3. Express Interest:
    Advisors can search and express interest directly from the platform.

  4. Approval & Messaging:
    Advisors receive an email notification when someone expresses interest.
    Once the seller approves, both parties can message freely through Practice Exchange.

✉️ Messaging & Privacy

  • Growth-oriented advisors can message any user, but still require approval to discuss a Partial Sale.

  • Succession-oriented advisors can only receive messages about a Partial Sale once they approve an expression of interest.

  • Seller profiles will be made visible only to advisors in their division/region, and only those they approve can engage in a discussion.
