How the First Conversation Goes

Sellers hear a short set of questions first: what the company sells, how many years it has operated, roughly what it earns and what is driving the timing of an exit. Then we walk through how a valuation is built and which records buyers and lenders tend to ask for. Our fees are simple. There are no retainers and no hidden fees, you pay nothing up front to list, and our commission comes only from a closed sale, because we only get paid when the seller does.

Buyers get a different set of questions: what deal size you can carry, how you expect to handle financing and which industries match your background. Buyer registration can happen during that same call, and new listings go to registered buyers first. What you tell us stays confidential, and if a goal does not fit the current market, we say so directly.

Helpful to Have Before You Call

1. Sellers should have the last two or three years of tax returns and profit and loss statements close by, even if they are not final.
2. Know the basic terms of your lease, including how many years remain and whether it can be assigned to a new owner.
3. Buyers should have a rough figure for the cash they can put down and whether they expect to use an SBA loan or seller financing.
4. Jot down your timeline, since a sale in six months and a retirement in three years call for different preparation.
