About Vendi &
Keppel Brown
More Than a Business Broker—
A Strategic Deal Maker.
What is Vendi?
Vendi isn’t just another business brokerage—it’s a smarter way to sell your business. Founded on expertise, strategy, and a results-driven approach, Vendi helps business owners maximize value, secure the right buyer, and exit with confidence.
At the heart of Vendi is Keppel Brown, a business sales specialist with firsthand experience as a business owner, consultant, and dealmaker. He understands that selling a business isn’t just about listing it—it’s about positioning it correctly, structuring the right deal, and ensuring a smooth transition for both seller and buyer.
Why Work With Vendi?
Most brokers take a passive approach, listing businesses and waiting for inquiries. Vendi does things differently. With Keppel’s expertise, Vendi ensures your business is sold the right way—proactively, strategically, and with your financial goals in mind.
- Selling Profitable, Well-Managed Businesses – Connecting sellers with serious, financially qualified buyers.
- Helping Businesses That Didn’t Sell the First Time – Repositioning, restructuring, and remarketing to close the deal.
- Maximizing Business Value – Ensuring clear financial presentation and negotiation for the best sale price.
- Strategic Deal Structuring – Including seller financing, earn-outs, and flexible transition plans.
Vendi doesn’t just sell businesses—it helps buyers secure financing, navigate the purchase process, and close deals with confidence. That’s why the Bank Cheat Sheet has become an essential resource for both sellers and buyers looking to streamline funding and avoid common financing pitfalls.
