The Firm Is Breaking Industry Records & Poised for Growth in 2019
We’re in our ninth year of helping business owners plan their exit strategies and then bringing them together with qualified buyers. It’s a win–win for everyone, and The Firm’s business has grown every year. Last year, we closed 52 deals, and we’re projected to close even more in 2019. Just as exciting is that our footprint in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) consultancy is now global, as we’ve facilitated several deals outside the United States.
Closing an industry-dominating 52 sales last year was no easy feat. Our team worked hard, stepped outside their comfort zones and did whatever needed to be done. Now, we’re focused on keeping that momentum members and continuing to provide our clients with the superb experiences we’re known for providing. A few of the payoffs for our hard work: We shattered M&A industry records last year, we’ve grown our pool of qualified buyers to more than 11,400, and we’re growing The Firm’s team right along with our business.
So far this year, we’ve had impressive numbers of new business opportunities and closings:
