Remarkable in this industry, our agreement with you gives you the protection of a guarantee.
If at any time you feel we are underperforming, you can cancel the agreement on 30 day notice.
We can offer this because we work hard and smart to earn your business AND we retain it through the completion of the transaction.
A listing is a commitment and should be a mutual agreement based on everything you and we can know about your deal.
Unlike our peers, we invest heavily in helping you understand both the value of your deal and your “hidden asset value”...BEFORE we ask you to sign on the dotted line.
You see, most dealers are so close to their business they can’t see certain assets that their buyer would value highly.
We have developed a proprietary tool that helps uncover the hidden assets in your deal. We invest approximately 80 hours of our team’s skilled effort understanding your deal. We use some of the most expensive and proprietary databases and online services in the world to sniff out the hidden assets others miss.
We apply our experience in over 150 transactions; put all that in to a 50+ page report with a 3 page executive summary that makes your potential...crystal clear. Explain the past and Sell the future.
Finally, we sit down with you and share ideas so we both, you and me, have the full knowledge of the most likely REAL value of your store...and then...maybe more importantly... we review how you can use market timing and our other resources to get your best price.
At the end of all that...and not a minute before...if everything is to your satisfaction, we ask you to sign a formal engagement.
It is important to start because too many dealers wait until they are in a pinch.
From the time you first call, you are in complete control.
If we talk and you feel it isn’t time to proceed, your hand is the one on the throttle.
The good news is that you are more knowledgeable about where your best opportunity for profit is.
By going through the process, you’ll learn new hidden assets in your business and you'll be ahead of the game.
It will help you feel more comfortable and confident with your decision rather than second guessing that can be so stressful for you.
One of the most important factors affecting the total profit you see in the sale of your dealership is your ability to maintain confidentiality.
The minute the “street” knows you want to sell your store, typically the value of the store declines.
Sometimes a little, sometimes a lot.
For your benefit we take great pains to insure your information is confidential with us. For more than 150 transactions (and thousands of pre-sale conversations) we have seen confidentiality as essential.
One fear that many prospective sellers have is that an initial exploratory conversation will result in the unwanted disclosure of information...whether it be in casual conversation or actually a call to a prospective buyer.
We won’t initiate any contact on your behalf or disclose any information about your deal until you have authorized us to do so.
There are a lot of moving parts to the successful sale of your store...
We work together carefully identifying the right party for your store and identifying and educating them about the “go forward” profit prospects of the opportunity.
It’s up to based on how fast you want to move through the process.
It’s about you and it’s about time.
We help you every step of the way from the first conversations with you about what your options might be all the way to your life after selling.
Too many deals “blow-up” or have nagging “tails” on the transactions. When you want to sell your store, you want to move along to your next adventure.
We work hard to help ensure you can do that without the negative consequences of a poorly “finished” transaction. Read “My Million Dollar Mistake” to understand why I am personally very sensitive to this issue.
We understand that your decision to consider a sale is more than just a transaction, it's a transition.
Too many firms these days play a “shell game” when they list your store.
They dangle an attractive price under your nose, don’t pay much attention to your deal for a while, and then ratchet jaw you into settling for a lower price (sometimes much lower).
 The next step is to give us a confidential call.
We know this is a big step for you. One that has a lot of factors both business and personal. Our goal is to help you feel informed and comfortable with the progress of your sale every step of the way.
At all times your hand is the one on the throttle.
You remain in control because that control is an important part of making the right business decisions.
One of the ways we can help you is by laying out options in a transaction that you may not have considered.
Frequently the way a deal is structured can result in tax and capital gains savings that might not be obvious on the first look at a transaction. You get more, the buyer pasy less, including our fee.
With that in mind, our goal is to lead you to a successful, beneficial transaction that leaves more money in your pocket than you might have seen if your deal was viewed as merely a transaction.
In these days of advanced technology, a simple phone call is the best way for us to understand where you want to go.
Call my direct “follow me” number (1-800-800-4728) and there is a 95% chance you talk to me right now.
We’ll get started understanding what you want and give you straight answers to make the informed decisions you want to make.
