Jeff Chapman Eisnaugle
Business Broker Colorado
Serving Denver County, CO
Jeff Chapman Eisnaugle will help you sell your business now or help you prepare your business to maximize the potential of your future sale. Jeff believes that he would be your best choice to help you sell your business based on his experience, track record, number of active buyers that he has accumulated, and his personal commitment to each seller. He backs this up in ways that most other brokers can’t or won’t: -Jeff Chapman doesn’t get paid unless he sells your company for the price that you want and will put that in his listing agreement which means no up-front or hidden charges. You remain in control. -Custom Non-Disclosure Agreement to help ensure discretion. -Expert and experienced business valuation, preparation, and marketing. -Proprietary Marketing that includes the use of a video interview of the owner. -Negotiation experience to put deals together and then to keep deals together all the way to a closing. -Many years of experience that have generated references from satisfied sellers that he will offer. Jeff has spent years accumulating and cultivating over 30,000 buyer’s emails and other information. Compare this approach to other brokers who “have to go out and get the buyers” for a new business listing. Instead, Jeff can discretely present your business to his buyers. He also uses video to detail the business for sale which includes a video interview the owner. Jeff’s Commitment to His Sellers: -Promise to Help You Maximize the Sales Price and Terms During the Sale of Your Business -Promise to Work Hard to Sell Your Business “Quickly and Quietly” -Promise to Bring You Buyers -Promise to Keep You Updated During the Entire Process For business owners who are not yet ready to sell, Jeff will voluntarily help you prepare their business for sale to help maximize the sales price.
