“If you’re deciding between trying to sell yourself, listing with a large online selling platform, or working with a broker, save yourself the frustration and just work with The Magnolia Firm from the beginning.”
“When I was ready to sell my business, I went with an online selling platform that was supposed to handle everything from vetting buyers to the final contracts in exchange for a big % of the final sale price. Unfortunately, my business just sat on that platform for five months with little to no interest. By the time I decided to list elsewhere and reach out to The Magnolia Firm, I was feeling really disheartened and wasn’t sure if my business was sellable, despite generating 6-figures in profit each year for the last three years.They instantly gave me a confidence boost, and incredibly, the business was sold in under a month from our first conversation. I could tell right away that they understood my business and would do everything to close on a successful sale. I was honestly kind of in awe of how quickly they moved and got things done! The team was always available to both potential buyers and myself.
Throughout the process, I’ve kept saying I’m an expert in MY business, but not an expert in selling a business. TMF was the expert I needed! They walked me through the process every step of the way once we started working together. In a male-dominated field, I was thrilled to find an advisor who both understood my business and never made me feel incompetent for not understanding the process of selling a business. My sale only went through yesterday, and I’ve already recommended their team to a number of business owner friends. I wish I had started out with The Magnolia Firm right from the beginning– I have no doubt my business would’ve sold months ago!If you’re deciding between trying to sell yourself, listing with a large online selling platform, or working with a broker, save yourself the frustration and just work with The Magnolia Firm from the beginning. Not only did my business sell in under a month, but it also cost me less than it would have if it had sold through the platform I initially listed on. I’m so thankful I found them! I had the goal of selling my business before my second baby is born, and with three months to go, I was beginning to think I just wouldn’t reach that goal.Writing this made me realize how much my life has changed since my first call with them– the three months I'm going to have before my baby is born to focus on my toddler, personal projects, and my other business are really priceless to me. I can’t get over how much my situation has changed in just one month.”
