Business Transitioning & Transaction Services
Call Us Today! 413-478-5475
You may be thinking of retiring and wondering how to sell your company, or how do you find the right business to buy. You may have questions such as, how I can sell my company confidentially, and get the very best price, as I do not want my employees or customers to have wind of this until I am ready to disclose. Or how do I identify and negotiate the very best price and terms when buying a business.
When it comes to selling or buying a business, no matter which side of the transaction table you are on, potential challenges can be complex and even overwhelming. TWG advisors will steer you clear of potentially leaving money on the negotiating table, or possibly paying too much for the business of your dreams. Can you afford making a potential million-dollar mistake? You can rest assured and trust that TWG will guide you through the entire transaction process with “your best interests in mind”. We are results-driven as our typical compensation is fee-based on the “total consideration” of the deal structure in its entirety.
Please keep in mind that we are not all about closing deals, we are all about creating long-term relationships with our clients, as well as repeat and referral business when feasible and possible. TWG tells it like it is and is not afraid to advise you to pull the plug and walk-way from a transaction if it is not in your best interest.

Exit Strategy and Transition Planning
Transferring the ownership of a business can be a complex and emotional situation. Every business has a life cycle and eventually, as an owner, you will be faced with answering the question, "What's next?” The current and future decisions should be guided by facts and objectivity, and not by an unplanned and forced set of circumstances. How you exit the business may be one of the most important and critical decisions of your business life. You may have spent many years carefully planning for the growth, sustainability and profitability of your business. How much time and consideration has been given to what needs to happen before and after you leave? The number one reason businesses may fail is due to the lack of formal planning and communication by owners with family, key employees and other business partners such as the accountant, attorney and financial planner.
Many business owners do not have a formal plan and contingencies in place. Not having this key business initiative in place may result in serious and adverse consequences to the business, the owner, family members, employees and its customers. The business should be positioned to continue operations as usual in the event an unplanned or planned event occurs. Our time-tested processes and methods provide our clients with impartial and strategic guidance during and after initiating a “living and workable exit strategy and transitioning plan.” Each plan is individualized and designed to provide our clients with substantiated information and clear paths to making informed decisions including when and whom to transition to, and at what price and terms. The following are a few benefits that a well thought out exit strategy and transition plan will provide:
