Boston Business Brokers

Selling your business can be a life changing event. It must be handled by professionals committed to realizing a transaction price that recognizes the company’s current value and also compensates the seller for a lifetime of effort dedicated to building that business. Engaging a qualified M&A professional in Boston allows the business owner to be more selective in the choice of a buyer because that M&A professional will ultimately provide the seller with multiple offers.

The team at A Neumann & Associates, LLC has maintained an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau for 20+ years in a row and boasts a portfolio of more than 5,000 valuations since the firm’s inception in 2003. We work with medium and large businesses through various processes, including valuations, professional financial services, and mergers and acquisitions.

Call A. Neumann & Associates, LLC today to schedule an initial consultation with your professional Mergers & Acquisitions Advisor and business broker in Boston and gain a better understanding of how we can work together to navigate this complicated process towards a successful outcome for you.

Understanding the Business Valuation in Process

Before entering discussions with potential buyers, it is essential that you have a clear understanding of your company’s market value. At A. Neumann & Associates, LLC we will go through your financial records to gather critical information about cash flow, debts, operating costs. This will help us establish a clear understanding of your company’s profitability and cash flow, key factors that impact your final Business valuation in Boston. After gathering all of this data, we engage the services of an independent, third-party valuation firm to determine the fair market value of your company. This report will take into account a wide range of factors including the markets in which you are active and the nature of your competition.

Once this in-depth analysis is completed and a current valuation is established, we will be able to provide you with a range of recommendations that can help increase the value and appeal of your business before we begin the process of connecting with qualified potential buyers.

Historical Performance

When an investor enters into merger and acquisition talks, one of the most important things they consider is the potential for future profits and growth of the business. A solid business with a strong business valuation will have great potential for future profits based on past performance, an established position in the market, and proven processes.. The potential profits that a buyer can anticipate once they acquire your business will play a vital role in the final transfer price.

Post-COVID Business Valuations

2020 a and 2021 were unprecedented and difficult years for many businesses across the world. While many markets were able to sustain or increase profits through this unanticipated shutdown, other markets suffered from uncertainty, decreased consumption, and lack of mobility. Economists are looking to the future of the U.S. economy with confidence, and while the repercussions of COVID-19 will continue to echo through the markets well into the future, business futures are starting to look up. During these difficult times working with an experienced, proven brokerage team through the valuation process will ensure that your business is properly represented.

The Importance of Confidentiality and Discretion Throughout the Sales Process

A Neumann & Associates, LLC, a leading business brokerage in Boston, understands the importance of confidentiality throughout the entire mergers and acquisitions process, which is why we focus on maintaining relationships with an enormous number of qualified investors.

A Neumann & Associates, LLC focuses on discrete, direct conversations with qualified individuals and teams, maintaining confidentiality through non-disclosure agreements and other legal tools that protect all critical information about your business and therefore protect the ultimate price and success of each transaction.

Vetting Qualified Buyers

One of the most important aspects of a successful business brokerage is identifying and approving only truly qualified potential buyers, thereby protecting a seller’s interests from day one of our relationship.

We review each of our potential buyers’ financials to ensure they have the ability to purchase a company. If a buyer does not qualify, no detailed information will be released.

Furthermore, we will consider the potential buyer’s legal status, such as their ability to operate the business as a foreign national, as well as their plans for the business once the transaction is completed.

Beyond our own requirements for qualified buyers, we will defer to your conditions for the type of buyer with whom you wish to enter sales talks. Regardless of the on-paper qualifications and factors that we deem as essential for our clients, your transaction will be dictated by your own needs and requirements. Your business is a part of your legacy, and this transaction will be guided by you.

Client Testimonials

“I had been in touch with Karin and Gary from A Neumann & Associates regarding some opportunities and was looking forward to meeting with them. Hence, when they organized a seminar in Princeton, NJ, I was quick to sign up. The seminar was very informative as the team walked the attendees through various scenarios and referenced real life buying/selling situations they had been through. The sessions by Gary, Karin and Achim were crisp and focused and brought clarity to potential seller and buyers. I strongly recommend the team and look forward to continue working with them.”

Gaurav Tyagi

“Thank you for your Event on "How to value, Sell, and Buy A Business for Maximum Profit" and the insight into ANA’s approach on what is involved in the Business Exit for sellers. Garys Hervieiou's "Business Valuation", Achim's "Deal structure" presentation and Karin’s "Preparing the Package" are real street knowledge shared. They answered attendees questions which makes it more interesting for learning from others. Great for small businesses like us. The presentations were totally worth our time and travel for the event to Princeton, NJ from Rockville MD. Ravi Bhutani, President, CIPS”

Ravi Bhutani

“Gary, this is to thank you for an excellent job done in selling our business. We could never have done it without your professional expertise, dedication and time put in without reservation to make it happen. We will gladly and highly recommend you to anybody in our position. It was a pleasure to work with you.”

“Your vetting is simply outstanding, among the best I've seen from a broker.”

Eric H., Investor

“I recently contacted A. Neumann and Associates about getting a valuation of my business done. I spoke with Marc, who explained the process in detail. After meeting with Marc in order to get a clear understanding of my business, and what I was hoping to accomplish. His patience in answering all my questions and his knowledge of the proper way to market my business gave me great confidence that this is the firm I will be using to sell my business for max value. Working with Marc at A Neumann & Associates was very easy and professional. I did not know all that was going to be involved in selling my business but they helped me through the process. What I thought was going to be a just another one of those pushy sales companies was just the opposite. Polite, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to talk to and deal with. I highly recommend this firm to anybody who wants to sell now or down the road. Marc not only knows his stuff, but actually is a real nice guy.”

“Claus Madsen thoroughly helped us with selling our company. From the 1st introductory meeting explaining to us what was possible, to providing us with resources to assist with the sale. Claus was invaluable throughout the whole sales process. Claus was with us every step of the journey and always made himself available for any questions or issues that came up along the way. If you are interested in selling your business, I encourage you to reach out to Claus and the ANA team so that they can let you know what’s achievable. These guys will make it happen!”
