Since 2002, Synergy Business Brokers has developed relationships with business owners, acquisition teams, private equity groups, and entrepreneurs. Our database includes over 40,000 potential buyers, giving us an established audience for the companies we represent.
A Michigan company may appeal to a buyer nearby, elsewhere in the United States, or overseas. We consider who could benefit from your customer relationships, services, workforce, or geographic coverage, then combine direct outreach with online advertising, email marketing, and our professional network.
When offers arrive, we help you compare the price, payment terms, financing requirements, transition expectations, and the buyer’s ability to complete the transaction. Your priorities guide the negotiations.
You may be ready to discuss selling without being ready to tell employees, customers, or competitors. We begin by learning about your business privately and can sign a confidentiality agreement before reviewing your financial information.
Public marketing describes the opportunity without advertising your company’s name or specific address. Before receiving identifying details, prospective buyers must sign a nondisclosure agreement and provide information about their background and financial qualifications.
We screen inquiries and coordinate buyer discussions so you can continue running the company while we manage the sale process with you.
Our completed Michigan sales include companies with different services, customer relationships, and ownership goals. These examples show the types of businesses we have helped owners sell:
ATC Healthcare Services, Michigan franchise operations
These healthcare staffing and homecare operations generated over $17 million in annual revenue. The buyer owned a software company serving the staffing industry. The transaction closed in approximately ten months, with franchise approval and financing among the steps required to complete the sale.
Wireless internet and telecom provider in Ingham County
This business generated over $3 million in annual revenue through internet connectivity, telecommunications, and related network services. Its subscription model and established business customers were important features of the opportunity. The owner was ready to pursue another venture.
Sleep medicine and ADHD practice in the Detroit area
This specialty practice generated over $2 million in annual revenue and had operated for more than three decades. Its services included sleep medicine, ADHD care, and clinical research. An established patient base and physician referral relationships supported the business as its owner prepared for retirement.
Ophthalmology practice in Kalamazoo County
This practice generated over $1 million in annual revenue and had served patients for more than 20 years. With approximately 10,000 active patients, it offered an established platform for a new owner. The retiring seller was willing to assist with the transition.
The complete sale process typically takes six to twelve months, although some transactions close within a few months and others take a year or longer. Pricing, the availability of financial information, buyer financing, and due diligence all affect the schedule. Read more about how long it takes to sell a company.
We are usually able to reach step 9 of our 15 step sales process, introducing qualified buyers, within one to eight weeks of starting the process. We can normally introduce multiple qualified buyers during that time. Several steps can take place together, helping the process move relatively quickly when information is available and both sides are responsive.
No. A confidential consultation can help you understand a potential selling price, the preparation involved, and whether a sale could support your plans. You can then decide whether to move forward now or prepare for a future sale.
We will discuss your responsibilities, the capabilities of your team, and what a buyer would need to take over successfully. A transition period can help transfer important knowledge and relationships. Some owners prefer a shorter handover, while others are open to remaining involved for longer. These expectations should be discussed during negotiations.
Discuss the proposed transaction and your expected proceeds with your tax adviser before committing to an offer. Your retirement or reinvestment plans should reflect what you expect to retain after the sale. We can coordinate the sale process with your accountant and attorney as you evaluate the terms.
If you own a profitable Michigan company and are considering a sale, we would welcome the opportunity to learn about your business and your plans. Start with our seller registration form so we have useful background before speaking with you.
