CLIENTS
Our offices generally work for business owners (sellers) with whom the office has a Listing Agreement, authorizing the office to market the business assets. The office charges no front fees to seller clients, and usually are paid only when the business sells.

Our offices invest all the money needed to package the listing, advertise it in local and national media, and on the internet, and service the listing until it is sold.

Our offices perform many services during the listing engagement, on a no-fee basis, as an accommodation to the seller and buyer, including offering sellers a free evaluation to help them determine the market price for the business.

Our offices also invest the energy needed to find and manage the activities of potential buyer candidates. Our many years experience, coupled with successful marketing of thousands of different businesses, provides us with the knowledge required to deliver a high level of professional services to all parties.

We are keenly aware of the importance of the maintenance of high standards of confidentiality in small business representation, and have developed systems over the years which give sellers a satisfactory comfort level. 

Buyers, too, prefer complete confidentiality in the managing of their acquisition search, and our offices understand the importance of protecting the buyers and sellers confidentiality needs.

 

CUSTOMERS
Business buyers are our customers. Our offices charge no fees to buyers, except for special projects at the buyer’s request, to assist with special engagements.

By far the majority of the time, all services are provided to buyers on a no-fee basis.

We begin the search by uncovering the buyers “ideal investment”, including showing them the listings from among the hundreds we have for sale and “in-stock” at any given time.

Our agents specialize in patient, professional services to buyers, including working with their attorneys and other advisors, to insure that all buyers receive adequate advice.

Our offices are full-disclosure offices, which means that we encourage all parties to cooperate to provide all the facts needed for buyers and sellers to be able to consummate transactions with low risk and maximum chances of mutually satisfactory results.

 

FINANCING ASSISTANCE
Our offices specialize in providing assistance in arranging the financing needed to make acquisitions possible; over 80% of the thousands of transactions we’ve brokered since 1982 have been completed with financing arranged by our associates. We charge no fees for financing assistance.

Our sales associates provide this valuable financing advisory service as an accommodation to the parties who list and buy businesses through our offices. 

We stay on the cutting edge of financing expertise, and maintain a unique data base of lenders who are aggressively interested in making the kinds of loans associated with the sale of the businesses we broker.

 

MANAGEMENT OF THE DETAILS
Our offices also volunteer to manage the details of the transaction, including working with bankers, lawyers, accountants, creditors, and other professionals involved in a properly structured transaction.

Wide experience in managing thousands of closings over the years allows our sales associates to provide these services with the highest level of competency. We charge no extra fees for these closing services.
