Ameritech & Associates seeks to help business owners achieve their financial objectives through the process of selling their companies. We understand that every company is unique, and so is every sale. When it comes to you and your business, we have a dedicated team who works to alleviate the burden of the sale process, allowing you to stay focused on what you do best…running your company.
Our team applies a disciplined approach to the sale of your company, working to provide you with the results you’re looking for…strong offers from high-quality perspective buyers.
The business valuation process allows our team to develop a deeper understanding of the unique intricacies of your business including value drivers, key risk factors and competitive position. We will use this process to estimate the value of your business, which will help establish price expectations and can serve as a starting point for succession planning.
Leave it to us to handle the heavy lifting required to take your business to market and secure a successful transaction. We provide a wide range of services based on your needs.
Your valuable company has a story, and we can help you tell it. Through direct mail and email communications, we contact potential buyers to gauge their interest in potentially purchasing your company. If potential buyers respond with interest, we protect your confidentiality by requiring them to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before providing any additional details about your company. Once we receive the signed NDA, we provide the buyer with the detailed CIM.
The deal-making stage in the sale process is broken down into three phases.
The final stage of the sale process begins with due diligence and culminates with the signing of closing documents and the wiring of funds. Wondering what it entails?
The buyer submits a list of documents and company information needed to complete an in-depth review of all aspects of your business. The primary purpose of due diligence is to verify the accuracy of information shared by the seller and to confirm there are no hidden legal issues or other liabilities that could expose the buyer to risk.
To help simplify the exchange of information that occurs during the due diligence process, our team sets up a virtual data room where documents are securely uploaded and organized so they are easily accessible to the buyer.
We work with your attorney(s) to draft, negotiate and finalize the definitive purchase agreement. We also collect the necessary closing documents and ensure all closing conditions have been satisfied. Once all signature pages have been signed and compiled, funds will be wire transferred and the sale process is complete.
No upfront cost at all for our services but we do have a cost for our advisory services to implement a full growth strategy and our team coming on board to help with your growth. That cost can range from $5,000 to $22,000 depending on the scope of work.
No, we will not need to make any visits to your business at all for the business funding or advisory services. If we are assisting with selling your business, we would make a visit to the business as required during the selling process.
No long-term contract is every signed for our services. We create a roadmap for you, and you can follow it on your own or have us be apart of your growth journey.
Yes! If you are not happy with your advisor at any part of the process, we will gladly exchange that advisor with someone else you feel more comfortable with.
If for whatever reason our strategies do not work to increase revenue for your business, we will cover the costs until we can track the growth ourselves.
