A Business Broker that Understands Small Business
Small businesses are the engine that drives the economy. Almost all businesses started as small businesses. As a small business owner and entrepreneur you breathe life into your community – providing jobs, products, and services needed by your neighbors.
You took a risk when you opened your business. If you had the patience and perseverance to succeed you should be congratulated.
Selling your life’s work, your legacy
Maybe it is time to retire – congratulations. Or, maybe you have a great idea for your next venture. In either case, you want to sell your business. Most small business owners have never sold a business before. If you have sold a business, you know it is hard, time consuming, and emotionally tiring. It is time to hire a Business Broker or M&A Advisor.
We want to know your story.
Its only by first understanding your story that we can find the right buyer for your business. Part of being a good business broker is having the patience to find a buyer that will continue on and build the business the way you would want. When we look for a buyer for your business, we look not only for someone who can financilly buy your business, and has the skills to manage the business, but also someone who can work with your employees, your customers, and expand on the foundation you built for the business.
Is it time to sell your business?
Only you know when the “right” time comes to sell your business. Every business owner reaches their limit at some point, for any number of reasons. Maybe you’re finally ready to relax and retire. Maybe you have goals you’d still like to achieve before retirement, but need to free up both time and money. Or, perhaps your business has reached a point where it’s poised for fresh leadership to take it to the next level. Some of your clients just want tomove on to their next great idea.
We will never try to convince you to sell your business. If now is not the right time, we can help you do some exit planning so when you are ready, or when the right offer comes along, you are prepared to sell for the best price possible.

Spend a little tome and learn a lot about what to expect when you sell your business.

Tell Us About Your Business
Schedule a call with us to talk about your business. We would love to learn what makes your business unique and what makes it tick. During the conversation, we will explore the structure of the business, the growth potential, product or service mix, organizational structure, and anything else that you think we should know about your business. No cost or obligation.
Schedule a callLet Us Value Your Business
After our initial call, if we think your business is a good candidate for a sale, we will offer to provide you with a Broker’s Opinion of Value (BOV). Our opinion of value will give you a good idea of the range of values that we believe your business could be sold for currently. In order to provide the BOV we will need you to provide financial information such as tax returns, Profit & loss statements, and a balance sheet.
You Decide What’s Next
After we value the business you can decide if you are interested in selling now, growing the company more before you sell, or are not interested in selling. The information you gain through the process can help you make an informed decision. It also has the potential to help you with your financial and estate planning. There is no cost or obligation for this service – we only expect that you will consider us if you do decide to sell the business.
