The Vant Group focuses on understanding you first. 📌 We don’t just meet you and list your business. 📌 We build a relationship. 📌 We deliver insight before underwriting even begins. 📌 We prepare a comprehensive business plan—not just a sales flyer. The result? “I’ve submitted multiple deals with The Vant Group—and I’ve had a 100% success rate.” "As someone who has worked with real estate brokers, business brokers, and all kinds of intermediaries, I can say what makes TVG different is simple: 👉 They don’t just sell businesses. They advise business owners." If you want detailed prep, strategic support, and a real partner in the process—The Vant Group is who you call. 🔗 info@TheVantGroup.com

Want More for Your Business? Be Willing to Offer Terms. Many sellers demand all cash for their business—and then wonder why it doesn’t sell. Or worse, why the only offers come in way below asking. Here’s the truth: 💡 Sellers who require all cash only receive 70% of their asking price on average. 💡Sellers who offer terms receive 86% on average. That’s a 16% difference—and often the difference between selling and sitting. Why? Because seller financing: ✅ Makes your deal more attractive ✅ Speeds up the time from listing to close ✅ Shows buyers you believe in the business’s ability to perform ✅ Can actually increase the total amount you receive through interest Seller financing isn’t a risk—it’s a smart strategy. Want to structure your deal to actually close at a price that reflects your value? 📧 Talk to a Vant Group advisor today. info@thevantgroup.com

This article breaks down how to create an effective exit roadmap that aligns with your financial goals, business readiness, and personal aspirations.

In this episode of Deal Pulse, Marketing Director ⭐James Sackey Sackey sits down with Sanger D. Smith Smith, founder of Decidedly Wealth Management, to explore the current M&A climate through the lens of financial strategy, business owner psychology, and deal readiness. 🎯 Sanger shares how Decidedly serves entrepreneurial families navigating business transitions and how emotional readiness, poor bookkeeping, and recast EBITDA misunderstandings can derail deals. He also touches on: ✅ Why economic anxiety is high among business owners despite positive GDP growth ✅ The return of seller financing as interest rates stabilize at higher levels ✅ The growing appeal of equity rollups ✅ Why business owners need a purpose beyond their company before attempting an exit ✅ The danger of making long-term decisions based on short-term economic headlines 📉 Deal flow may be down, but opportunities abound for sellers who are organized and emotionally prepared. This is a must-watch for anyone in the middle market considering a sale—or advising those who are. 🔗 Learn more at www.thevantgroup.com 📺 Subscribe for more M&A insights from top dealmakers https://lnkd.in/gDx4Bxdh
