Immediate Sale - Full Service

Once the business valuation is complete and we have determined to officially put your business on the market, the process is as follows:

‍1. Prepare the Marketing Package (2 weeks)
‍
2. Present to market and filter through buyers (3-6 months)
‍
3. Negotiate and accept an offer (1 month)
‍
4. Complete buyer’s due diligence (2-3 months)
‍
5. Complete legal and Closing (1 month)
‍
Depending on various factors, the process typically takes 9-12 months to complete.

Immediate Sale - Facilitation

Our Facilitation Service is designed for situations where you already have one or more interested buyers.

‍In this role, we represent you with the primary goal of facilitating a successful transaction with the prospective buyer(s) you’ve identified.

Most prospective buyers come in the form of top level employees, local competition, family & friends, or industry buyers who have reached out to you.

This service is offered at a significantly reduced fee, and the transaction timeline is generally expedited, often taking approximately half the time of the standard process.

Strategic Preparation - ValuePath

Our ValuePath service is perfect for the entrepreneur that wants to leverage the next 2-3 years to maximize their business value for an eventual sale.

‍We utilize our affiliated company, Brazos Bookkeeping, to strategically integrate accounting and business valuation guidance to grow and sell your business.

‍Expert accounting oversight
‍Offers the availability and cost-effectiveness typically not found with a CPA. We prepare your books for a future sale, whether that’s overseeing month-end closes or if you need the full gamut of bookkeeping services.

‍Quarterly Valuation Guidance

Positive Client Feedback

Jacob and his company are true professionals. Their program got us the information we needed about selling our business. They proceeded to come with a professional appraisal and what we could expect for potential buyers. We agreed on an asking price and got it in a few weeks. I have nothing but good thoughts about this company."
Larry
We really enjoyed working with Jacob! He was very professional and was great working around our busy schedule. He clearly explained the process and kept us updated along the way. We would definitely recommend using their services!"
Lisa
I found Jacob to be very personable and professional during our numerous meetings on talking about the future of selling my business. After thoroughly reviewing the business valuation report we both agreed it was not the right time to sell my business. I understand how it is hard to trust someone to speak with about this type of transaction. Jacob did an outstanding job all the way around."
Delton

He was always quick to respond to any questions we had, and his guidance was practical and straightforward. It was reassuring to have someone so reliable and knowledgeable by our side. We really appreciate all of Jacob’s efforts and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for dependable professional assistance. Thanks, Jacob!"

Business Valuation FAQs
Seller Representation FAQs
Buyer Consulting FAQs
How much does a valuation cost?

If you’re sincere about the selling process, you need a valuation that is strong enough to withstand the rigors of the selling process, yet not so overblown as to waste unnecessary resources.

Our valuations are not the cheapest, but they’re not the most expensive either.
‍
The cost of a quality business valuation varies from $5,000 to $25,000.

How long does it take?

A business valuation typically takes 4-6 weeks to complete, depending upon how quickly we receive all requested information.

Why not have my CPA do it?

A CPA’s work usually focuses on areas other than preparing a business for sale. They don’t have a strong sense of the current buyer’s market. Additionally, CPAs typically skip over some of the smaller but important adjustments to earnings. As a result, their valuations many times do not reflect the true market value of the business.

What’s the first step in selling my business?

It all begins with worth. This helps us determine your business' value and if selling is the best course of action.

How long does it take to sell a business?

On average, a full-service sale takes 9-12 months, though this can vary depending on market conditions and complexity.

Who handles the legal and financial aspects of the sale?

We coordinate with trusted professionals, including lawyers, bankers, and CPAs, to ensure every detail is handled seamlessly.

Can you help me find businesses to acquire?

Yes!

What does the due diligence process involve?

We help you review financials, operations, and risks to ensure you’re making an informed decision before proceeding with a purchase.

Is ongoing advisory right for me?

If you’re planning multiple acquisitions or want long-term strategic guidance, our on-retainer service is ideal.
