Client feedback

”Without Doug I don’t think I would have made it through the sale of my business process! It was great having someone onboard fighting my corner that had been through the process many times before and knew what to expect, I was a novice at selling a business and didn’t know if it was either saleable or how the process evolved. Doug got me through it to a successful conclusion and was a pleasure to work alongside.”
