Experience
Bill is a former owner of a local advertising agency, where he worked with local business owners to help them build their businesses and grow their profit margins. He was responsible for complete control of all operations, sales, financials, and staffing. When he decided to sell his business, he used a small local broker and found himself disappointed for several reasons. The communication was poor, the marketing fell short, and he could not sell for the best multiples. Finally, Bill realized that he could do the job better. He decided to join Benchmark International because of our leadership in M&A and level of service, and he enjoys helping middle, and lower market business owners understand our award-winning process.
