Mergers & Acquisitions

Selling a Business?

We specialize in representing business owners who want to sell their business!

When you're ready to transition the ownership of your business, our team of professionals will guide you through every step of the complicated process of selling your business – quickly, confidentially and economically.

Buying a Business?

Whether you are a company or individual, buying a business is the epitome of the American Dream. Finding a business that’s a fit for you and your future success is our goal – because if done without proper planning and due diligence, it can be the American nightmare.

Exit Plans

Do you have an Exit Plan? Do you know all of the exit strategies available to you to transition out of your business? Do you know the tax consequences of a sale? Will your business be saleable when you are ready to exit? Will you be able to get what you need from the sale of your business? How will you find the "right" buyer for your business?

Most businesses aren’t saleable. That’s a fact…and a tragedy! Our mergers and acquisitions professionals won’t take you to market unless we feel confident that the business is ready.

Our passion and purpose, is to help you create a Seven-Step Exit Plan™, the roadmap necessary for you to maximize the return on your life's work.

Appraisers - Business Valuations & Machinery & Equipment Appraisals

Do you know the value of your company or its assets? Are you ERISA compliant? Are your assets fully insured should a disaster occur – fire, tornado, hurricane, flood? Are you fully prepared for the death or divorce of an owner?

ERISA requires companies with certain benefit plans to perform an annual valuation of your business. The penalties are steep if you ignore these laws.

Disasters can and do occur. An annual valuation and appraisal could save you millions!

Dovetail uses only certified appraisers to conduct third party business valuations and certified machinery and equipment appraisals.

Certified Business Coach

Do you and your employees have the passion and purpose to realize all of your dreams? Are your salespeople meeting or exceeding their goals? Are your customers loyal – “Raving Fans?” – or are they shopping your competition? Does every employee have the attitudes and skills to take you where you want to go?

Hiring an executive business coach is the best investment you can make in your most treasured asset –you and your people. We stand by your side to encourage you, guide you, challenge you and cheer you on.

We help you unleash your untapped potential and accomplish more than you ever dreamed possible through Leadership Development, Management Development, Supervisory Development, Sales Development, Sales Training, Customer Loyalty and Time Management.

Grow and Improve Your Profit Margin

Do you have the goals, proper systems and processes in place to take you to the next level or help you transition successfully out of your business? If not, then you are losing valuable time, resources and money.

Take your business to the next level! Hire an executive business coach who has the ability has to guide your people to guide you through Strategic Thinking and Business Planning, and to develop the proper systems and processes to achieve the goals of your company.

Right People…Right Action…Extraordinary Results!
