Art Travis

The focus of Art's business is working with small to midsize business owners and with people who would like to purchase a small to midsize privately held company.  He helps clients using the "Partner" On-Call systems together with his 23 years of experience as an executive and an entrepreneur.

How are we different?

What makes us different from other consultants and intermediaries is our niche?  We invented the concept of Business Buyer Advocacy.  We know that the skills necessary to buy a company are quite different from those which successful managers use to manage a company.  So, we developed and perfected the 22-Step Acquisition SequenceTM, which helps avoid pitfalls and keeps business buyers on track.

There is a difference between advisors who teach how to buy a business and those who do it everyday for a living.  We teach, but we teach what we do every day.

You can't buy a business until you find a business worth owning.  Our proprietary search system allows our clients to see dozens of companies that meet their criteria and avoid competition from other buyers.  Our proven due diligence system allows us to quickly and confidentially analyze a company without disrupting its operations. 
 

Business Valuation

Our business valuation reports are affordable, understandable and credible.  A business owner may use the report as a guide to improve his business, which yields an increase in the owner's return on investment and results in making the business more marketable to buyers at a higher price.  A business buyer may use our valuation as a "go/no-go" tool, as a reason to expand the due diligence, or to improve their understanding of the business and its potential.  As a "Partner" On-Call, we help business owners improve the performance and value of their business.  Many times a business will not achieve its potential because, among other reasons, the owners are too busy handling day-to-day activities and managing the latest crisis.  They don't really have the time to step back and see their business for what it is - the strengths that give it a competitive edge and the weaknesses that threaten it.  Our evaluation and diagnosis help owners think clearly about alternative solutions to their problems.

Preparing your business for sale

When you decide that it's time to sell your business, our service enables you to control the process of preparing yourself and your business for sale.  We can show you how to determine a fair price, define your plan to market your company, and attract multiple buyers.  Extensive training, years of experience and a network of affiliates across the country enable us to offer our clients one-stop shopping with our bundle of integrated services which is not available elsewhere.
