Marketing & Management Consulting Firm – Sold
$3,200,000
Annual Revenue: $2,271,000 Net Cash Flow: $1,081,000

The company has been sold, view our other businesses for sale.

This profitable, growing company provides integrated branding, public relations, advertising, website development, Internet marketing and social media services. The cornerstone of its integrated marketing approach is a structured process that lays the groundwork for the design of client programs that deliver a demonstrable ROI. As a measure of the success of its methodology, the company has built a clientele of leading global B2B and B2C companies, including some of the most prominent Fortune 500 brands. The firm’s account executives are adept at using an initial engagement to unearth additional marketing consulting opportunities, and in guiding clients in improving performance in areas other than marketing through organizational restructuring, process reengineering and the adoption of new management approaches.

The company has been established for many years and more recently launched a retail division to tap the largely unserved segment of small companies, which typically lack in-house marketing capabilities. As a reflection of the success of the retail marketing strategy, the division has grown to a level where it now generates over 80% of company sales.

A potential new revenue stream lies in the content contained in several books on marketing and management authored by the CEO. In addition to the direct sales potential from distributing the content through video, audio, training seminars, a subscription-based website, and other communication vehicles, these products should help drive demand for the retail division’s services.

A public relations, advertising, or non-integrated marketing firm that buys this company could greatly enhance its ability to acquire and retain clients—who increasingly want all of their marketing needs to be addressed by a single entity. A management consulting firm or commercial printer could use its acquisition of the company to gain an immediate, solid foothold in the integrated marketing services segment.

Finding the Right Engineering Company to Acquire

We understand that it takes time to find the right fit between two engineering firms that want to merge their operations. It’s about the acquiring firm being able to leverage a companies expertise to expand its offerings and open up new opportunities for them.  You can look over time at our Engineering businesses for Sale and hopefully find the right one.  It is essential to get the right cultural fit also so that the firms can be integrated well. Face-to-face meetings between the owners of each Engineering firm are an excellent opportunity to get to know one another and see if the chemistry is right.

Our typical buyer for an Engineering firm is another larger engineering company. But we’ve also sold engineering businesses to construction companies and architecture firms that wanted to beef up their engineering capabilities. You may be interested in purchasing a commercial and industrial engineering firm, or perhaps a company that specializes in high-quality engineering design that works with interior designers. Or perhaps you are an engineering business owner interested in a highly profitable design-build company that provides excellent project management service to clients. Our company has built up a broad range of engineering firms interested in buying and selling.

Selling Engineering Firms

We sell engineering firms with annual revenues of $700,000 to $70 Million. For more information on us, you can visit: Overview.

If you have been considering selling your engineering firm, we offer a confidential consultation with no fee until your engineering business is sold. We always have many potential buyers for engineering firms. It’s a matter of matching up the right buyer with the right seller at terms that work for both parties. So whether you want to sell a civil engineering firm, mechanical engineering business, or another type of engineering company, we’ll introduce the right buyers that are interested in your areas of expertise.

With engineering firms, the sellers need to stay on for a certain amount of time after the sale to provide a transition with clients and customers. However, this transition period has varied quite a bit from a couple of months to many years. Whatever works for buyers and sellers is negotiated. Usually, a month or two is included in the sale price, but a long transition is paid for with a salary and incentives in addition to the purchase price.

Many sellers find that a transition period can be an excellent way to ease into retirement while working part-time.
