The process of selling your business

"Lingate stands a mile high over others I've dealt with in the industry. I can't say enough good things about them; the words that come to mind are respectability, integrity and credibility."

- Christian Bame, Chairman

The transition of ownership of your business is the culmination of a great deal of hard work, endless hours, and a big financial investment. It's a critical step in the life of a business and the lives of the business owners. Given the stakes, you want the very best to maximize your value. Lingate Financial Group has successfully marketed and negotiated the sale of hundreds of publicly- and privately-owned businesses. Our measure of success in all projects is achieving our client's personal and financial goals, not merely closing a deal.

Lingate works with our clients' management team, accountants and attorneys as a complimentary member of their advisory team. We can serve as your transaction specialists, assisting you with needs assessment, market analysis, marketing plan development, project management, marketing, buyer identification, negotiation, and transaction structure.

For Lingate's larger corporate clients, we offer a full menu of professional services on an outsourced basis to help our clients divest those divisions, business segments, or product lines that are no longer a strategic fit, or may not be achieving the expectations of the company.
