About Me: A 25 Year Journey

Since founding Merger Resources in 1998, my journey as a seasoned business broker spans 25 years. Now, as I step into a fulfilling full-time business consultancy phase, I’m excited to embark on a fresh role as your dedicated business consultant within Merger Resources, doing business as Strategic Business Advisors.  I provide expert business consultancy for buyers and sellers of businesses.

Though I’ve chosen to transition away from listing and selling businesses, my unyielding enthusiasm for aiding business owners remains steadfast. At Strategic Business Advisors, my mission is crystal clear: to offer comprehensive consulting services centered around three pivotal areas – business valuations, business transition consulting, and expert guidance in business sales and acquisitions.  

Drawing from my rich 25-year career as a business broker, I’ve seamlessly transferred my expertise to the realm of consulting. While bidding adieu to the business brokerage sphere, my fervor for steering entrepreneurs like yourself is more vibrant than ever before.  I am wholeheartedly committed to fueling the entrepreneurial spirit within individuals like yourself. The journey continues, and I am more dedicated than ever to sculpting success stories together.

Because I no longer function as a business broker but as a business consultant.  As I don’t list and represent businesses for sale, I don’t earn commissions like business brokers do.   This ensures unbiased advice and a commitment to your success. My focus is on providing valuable consulting services and accurate valuations that help you make informed decisions.  Whether you are looking to buy or sell a business, my consulting services will provide you with the insight you need to make informed decisions.

 

A Recap of Myself:

Distinct Approach: I differ from traditional brokers due to a career transition from business broker to full-time transaction business consultant, resulting in an unbiased perspective.

Conflicts of Interest: With the shift, there’s no vested interest in selling specific businesses, eliminating potential conflicts of interest.

Motivation: The motivation now lies in offering accurate valuations and unbiased advice, free from commissions or predispositions.

Unwavering Ally: I position myself as an unwavering ally whether you’re maximizing business sale value or pursuing acquisition.

Experience and Commitment: Backed by over 25 years of experience, integrity, and unwavering commitment, I guide clients toward well-informed business decisions.
