Terms of Use
Effective date: July 1, 2026
Welcome to fastbizvalue.com (the "Site"), operated by Gateway Marketing LLC ("FastBizValue," "we," "us," or "our"). By using the Site or our business valuation tool, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. What FastBizValue Is
FastBizValue provides a free, automated estimate of what a small business might be worth, based on general market data and the information you enter. It is a lead-generation and educational tool offered in connection with business brokerage services provided by Mike Bolen, a licensed real estate broker affiliated with Transworld Business Advisors.
2. Valuation Disclaimer — Please Read
The estimate we provide is not an appraisal, a formal business valuation, or a broker's opinion of value. It is an automated, general estimate generated from third-party market data and the limited information you provide. It is for informational and educational purposes only.
You understand and agree that:
- The estimate does not constitute financial, legal, tax, accounting, investment, or professional advice, and should not be relied upon as such.
- The actual value of a business depends on many factors we do not capture, and can only be determined through a formal valuation and an actual transaction between a buyer and seller.
- We make no guarantee as to the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any estimate, and no guarantee that a business can be sold for the estimated amount or any amount.
- You should consult qualified professionals (such as a licensed business broker, accountant, or attorney) before making any decision based on the estimate.
3. No Brokerage or Advisory Relationship
Using the Site or receiving an estimate does not create a broker-client, agency, fiduciary, or other professional relationship between you and FastBizValue, Mike Bolen, Transworld Business Advisors, or any affiliated broker or agent. Any such relationship is formed only through a separate, signed written agreement.
4. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and have the authority to provide any business information you submit. By using the Site, you represent that you meet these requirements.
5. Your Information and Accuracy
The estimate depends on the information you enter. You are responsible for the accuracy of that information, and you understand that inaccurate or incomplete inputs will produce an inaccurate estimate.
6. Communications
By submitting your contact information, you agree to be contacted as described in our Privacy Policy, including by calls and text messages. Consent to marketing communications is not a condition of using the Site.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree not to misuse the Site, including by attempting to access it in an unauthorized way, scraping or harvesting data, interfering with its operation, or using it for any unlawful purpose.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Site and the estimate are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Gateway Marketing LLC and its affiliates, brokers, agents, and providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising out of your use of, or reliance on, the Site or any estimate.
