After interviewing several business brokers I chose Corporate Investment because of their reputation, experience and professionalism.Corporate Investment worked diligently on my engagement from start to finish, from preparing professional marketing materials, bringing more than one buyer to the table, to negotiating the letter of intent, they kept me informed at all times as to where we were in the process. When the deal hit some hurdles Corporate Investment continued communicating with the buyer and me to keep the deal progressing.They helped me achieve my goal and I would not hesitate to recommend them to any business owner looking to sell their business.Forrest Johnson, former ownerHigh Altitude Services
Testimonial from Kyle Gish – Former Owner of Dustless-Air Filter CompanyFifty percent of my adult life was spent building Dustless-Air Filter Company and shaping it into an organization where the employees were proud to be a part of its team, customers believed they received value from the products and services, and vendors cherished their relationship with Dustless. When I arrived at the crossroads of life where you sell or keep, it was important that any firm marketing the business would operate with my same set of values. After considering multiple brokers I decided to retain Corporate Investment. I can say with confidence that the decision to entrust Corporate Investment with the marketing and sale of my business proved to be an excellent choice.The professionals at Corporate Investment exceeded my expectations across the board. Their process was not a simple valuation of the company followed by posting an attractive photo and asking price on the internet. They did an in-depth study of the company’s financials going back 5 years then came back to me with many, many questions of why. After fully understanding the financials they waded deep into the all the organization’s personnel, business practices and processes to gain a complete understanding of what produced the financials, which at that point they seemed to have memorized. Based on their thorough study and evaluation, marketing materials were developed that communicated the culture of the company and the unique aspects which created value.The bottom line of any marketing plan is results, and Corporate Investment’s marketing plan produced great results. Multiple offers were generated, all of which met my expectations, with a few even exceeding expectations. When all the talks were completed, and the Purchase Agreement was signed, I was confident that I received full value for my business. More than receiving top dollar for my company, their careful marketing to, and screening of, potential buyers resulted in the business being acquired by a team I am confident will continue the legacy I am proud of.I am very glad I decided to trust Corporate Investment to represent me in the sale of my company.Kyle Gish, former ownerDustless-Air Filter Company
I founded my auto aftermarket products company, BullRing, 20 years ago. BullRing grew to be America’s #1 truck bed tie down accessory largely due to my philosophy and dedication to providing 100% customer satisfaction. So, when the time came to sell my business, it was important for me to pick an M&A advisory firm that was focused on customer satisfaction. I interviewed multiple firms and picked Corporate Investment to represent me.Corporate Investment provided a high level of service through each phase of my sale. From preparing high quality, professional marketing materials, to engaging multiple prospective qualified buyers and negotiating the letter of intent. Once the LOI was signed I, like many business owners, was under the impression that the majority of the work was done but I found out that getting from LOI to closing requires a lot of detailed work. During the process Corporate Investment introduced me to other experts needed to complete the sale. Together as a team, I, my attorney, CPAs, insurance agents and Corporate Investment navigated the due diligence process and finalized the closing documents all the way until the money was in the bank.I was relieved when the sale was completed. I am 100% satisfied with the work, advice and time Corporate Investment devoted to representing me in the sale of my business. I got the big-time investment banking experience that is rarely found for a business my size. Hiring Corporate Investment to sell my company proved to be the right decision for me. I am going to miss working with my Corporate Investment guys. If I ever have a business to sell again, they are the only ones I will call.
