“I recently completed an acquisition using A Neumann & Associates. Tony Valentino was very helpful and accessible during the entire process. They do a thorough job vetting both parties and got us to the finish line.”

“Claus out of Florida helped us with the sale of our business. We had never done anything like this and him and his team walked us through the process from start to finish. We had some challenges through the process and Claus continued to show up even in the difficult conversations.”

“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!”

“A Neumann & Associates is the only business broker I would use or consult with. They have assisted with 3 business sales over the past 15 years with me. They are honest and sincere and have always performed better than my expectations. They are the only one i would use for the sales of my businesses.”

“I wanted to take a second to commend the exemplary customer service from both you [Karin Neumann] and Mr. Valentino. It’s both a rarity in the industry, and very much appreciated.”

“We worked with Neumann & Associates to investigate the purchase of a research company in 2010 and found Achim to be capable, forthright and realistic. His depth of experience enabled us to fully understand our options, offering creative options that might enable the acquisition. While we didn’t acquire that particular company at that time, we know exactly who to call whenever we’re looking to buy or sell a business.”

“Purchasing a business through this firm was a pleasure. Gary was very professional and transparent throughout the entire process. I look forward to working with A Neumann & Associates in the future.”

“I utilized A. Neumann & Associates to assist in an M&A process. They are VERY thorough in using their time-tested process to calculate the value of investment opportunities, a process which provided a very detailed explanation for the value of the potential opportunity. Additionally, they also went above and beyond to extend other services including connecting with others who specialize in your industry and can assist with necessary steps including legal and accounting. Highly recommended!”

“I recently contacted A. Neumann and Associates about getting a valuation of my business done. I spoke with Achim, who explained the process in detail. He had his colleague Gary come to my office 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 when the time comes for me to sell my business for max value. They gave me great insight into the steps I need to take now to get the best deal in the future. I highly recommend this firm to anybody who wants to sell now or down the road. They not only know their stuff, their actually just real nice guys.”

“As a buyer, I’ve had a great experience working with Karin and the rest of the team. They do an excellent job of looking at a deal from the buyer’s lens and including all the relevant information required for decision making, in the CIM*. The level of professionalism and quality by which the CIMs are written is truly outstanding.”

“As a 40 year business owner, I attended the workshop in order to understand best practices and to prepare myself, and my clients, for the eventual ownership transfer process either to a family member or third party. All questions were answered professionally and directly which I appreciated because I arrived seeking to understand the fees involved and how to engage with their firm years prior to when I plan to retire. If you are considering attending an ANA seminar, you will enjoy the experience, and leave with a valuable workbook and make some new friends during your time with A. Neumann & Associates.”

“These guys are good, they put very professional information together. You are very well represented [as seller].”

“Working with Achim and Gary was very easy and professional. I did not know all that was going to be involved but they helped me through the process. A major value of their service is knowing what the team is supposed to do and when – this was very helpful and a novice surely couldn’t do that by themselves. I certainly would give A Neumann & Associates high marks and fully recommend their services to someone looking to sell their business.”

“This testimonial is for my total satisfaction with the work Tony Valentino and his company A Neumann Associates have provided for me. While I have not pulled the trigger yet for the sale of the business, I am confident that when the time comes Tony will do the right thing. Tony has provided guidance throughout the entire process, while never making me feel pressured. There are no surprises.”

“This is the most professional and thorough COM I’ve seen in searching for a business in the past eight months.”

“I am confident recommending Aaron to help my clients through the process of selling their businesses. His responsiveness, attention to detail, and follow through are exemplary. I know when I ask Aaron to contact one of my clients, he will work with them, step by step through the process. His knowledge and professionalism are outstanding.”

“There are many M&A firms saying the same thing. I chose the one that delivered – A Neumann & Associates. This firm is top notch start to finish – they not only follow up they follow through. Give Gary Herviou and Achim Neumann a hard look if you are committed to selling, because they are . This will be your greatest transaction – make the right decision and choose A Neumann & Associates to represent you!”

“I have been in the market to acquire a business for the past few months. In that time, I have worked with several business brokers and Neumann & Associates have been one of the best to work with. They were extremely responsive and the confidential memorandum for the business I was looking at, was the best I have received.”

“The information provided in the Confidential Memorandum and Valuation Report was extremely thorough and informative, which I appreciated very much.”

“Thank you Aaron for all of your help in getting a valuation for my business. For the past 10 years, I have been the owner of a business that has been around for nearly 100 years. The valuation gave me a clear picture of where my business is at this time, and will help me plan for the next 10 years. I appreciate your guidance and support through the process.”

“I am a new client of your company and I am looking at possible staffing acquisitions in the East Coast. I have been working with your staff for about a week now and I wanted to let you know that you have a great operation. The emails and the documents that I receive at every stage in the process are complete and there is no guess work. I have been working with Karin in your office and her follow-up has been great but I get a feeling that everyone in your office is probably that way too. Thank you and best regards”

“Gary made us comfortable with the selling process from the beginning and the valuation was very professional and insightful. The ANA team worked creatively and diligently to overcome many obstacles – thanks to their drive and knowledge, we were able to close our sale in a timely manner. If the opportunity arose, we would most definitely use ANA again and we gladly recommend them without any reservations whatsoever.”

“Karin, you guys represent by far the most serious and attractive businesses I’ve come across and I’ve seen dozens and dozens by now.”

“I recently acquired a company represented by A Neumann and Associates. While Achim and Gary represented their client (not me), I nevertheless appreciated their ability to offer a clear Offering Memorandum and then manage an extremely complicated sales process to a successful completion. I would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend looking to sell his business.”

“I am very pleased that I chose A Neumann & Associates to represent me in selling my firm. The valuation process allowed me to control the transaction and Achim and Gary were very professional every step of the way.”

“Gary, thank you again for all your hard work and information regarding the valuation. This has certainly been an eye opening experience.”

“I’ve known Achim Neumann for years, and referred businesses to him. He’s the founder of A Neumann & Associates, headquartered in Atlantic Highlands. Uniquely among the business brokers I’ve met over the decades, Achim comes from an investment banking background, and it shows in how he approaches the sale of businesses. They are head-and-shoulders above anyone else, and I would recommend no other.”

“Our firm engaged A Neumann & Associates 4 years ago to get a handle on the value of our business in preparation for sale. Gary Herviou did a tremendous job learning about our business and determining what metrics would contribute to better valuation. His advice on where to focus attention provided a strategic piece of the puzzle needed for a successful sale. I highly recommend A Neumann & Associates to any business owner.”

“Our experience with Michael Feite and A. Neumann & Associates was very positive and professional.

We recommend anyone or any firm needing the services of a professional Merger & Acquisition firm to consider A. Neumann & Associates.”

You have clarified many of the questions I had about the valuation process. I feel assured that I now have a better grasp of what my business might be worth.”

Thank you, Gary!”

I would recommend your firm to any business owner who wants to engage the experts to position their business to attract the best purchaser.”

“In spending about a year searching for a small business, I have found it frustrating at times dealing with brokers. You contact them on listings only to wait for responses that never come. After many listings I ran into Achim Neumann at Neumann and Associates. When I first contacted them I was finally surprised at a level of service. Neumann and Associates were quick to respond. They listened and worked hard toward finding me a good match. I would recommend Achim Neumann and his company. They even have a newsletter”

“I had been looking for a business for 2 ½ years until Mr. Neumann located the right one for me … throughout all this time we had looked at different ones, and Mr Neumann was very helpful in giving me advice”

“there were many requirements by the franchisor but Mr Neumann worked through it diligently and closed the deal for us”

“quite frankly, your material and presentations put all other brokers to shame”

“now, I know what a business broker is needed for … without Mr. Neumann I would have never closed the deal”

Being an international acquisition, the process involved lots of challenges & delays. Claus beautifully carried the deal from start till finish.
