Buyer Engagement Service Programs

According to industry statistics, over 90% of people who begin the search to buy a business fail to ever complete a purchase. Even worse, the average person looks at business for sale listings for 18 months and still only one in ten will buy a business!

This can be a monumental waste of our time! Every attorney and accountant will charge you a fee at the start of his services even though they cannot guarantee that you will win your lawsuit or that you will not be audited. We are professional and our services are not free. Although many brokers will search and work for free, we do not. You always get what you pay for.

When you are at the top of our priority list, you have our complete attention.  To ask us to work for you free is never going to happen, to ask us to keep you in mind if we come across something interesting and of your criteria is not going to happen: we only work for our priority clients; you will still be looking if you are not one of our priority clients!

We have fees that more than justify the efforts we spend on your behalf. Because most businesses have a minimum $20,000 commission, it is in our best interest to identify a business in which you can create a successful transaction  or we leave money on the table.  See the various types of buyer engagement services we can offer you and select the one that best suits you.
