The overall experience of selling my business was outstanding. Daniel was great to work with. Communication is important and I was never left out in the dark during the process. I would recommend ECBI and use them again in the future if needed. Thanks to the whole team!
I listed my business with this company a year ago. At our meeting I was very adamant about if they didn t think my business was sellable, then I wouldn t list it. They assured me they had sold a similar business and they felt it would definitely sell. Their average business I was told, sold within eight months. I even had to give them $1500 upfront for advertising and it would come off of the commission price if my business sold. Now I see now they are calling it a retainer and say now that it was reduced after my business didn't sell with another broker. They never said anything about a reduced retainer when I signed my contract. My other listing with the other broker was years ago, not just a few months after I Iisted it with Michelle. I felt I was the one doing all of the follow up on how the inquiries were going all along. I had one interested buyer with a low down payment offer and this company states that I raised my business price right after the offer which I did not. I was thinking of raising the price because my sales were higher but I did not. A month out before my listing was up, I contacted Michelle and asked for her to call me. I got a broken text which was very unprofessional. If my listing was up soon I felt I should ve had a courtesy call and not a text when I asked for a return call.
When my listing ended, I received nothing on their end. No Thank you for letting us try to sell your business .
Extremely disappointed with them and out $1500. I m very customer service oriented in my business and I expected the same. It's a shame how a company can turn their story after I was honest with my review.
If I ever had to sell my business, I would use Emerald Coast Business Brokers. I am in their database to buy a business and found that their process is thorough and professional. I had to fill out a complete financial statement and sign a non-disclosure agreement, but if it was my business for sale I would expect the same from a qualified buyer.
*** 5/28/19 Update *** Finally bought a business when Daniel and Jeff presented a great opportunity after looking for a year! The entire process was very structured from interviews with the seller to due diligence, but made closing happen quickly with a fantastic transaction attorney Mr. Dow Huskey. Thank you again to these highly professional business brokers. I finally own a Destin business including real estate!
Jeff was a super ally and represented our business sale in a professional manner. He was also a very nice person to work with. I recommend him fully.
I had an extremely positive experience when I was selling my business through Emerald Coast Business Brokers. They were extremely professional and the sale went through in two months from initial contact to closure. Daniel was very helpful and found a way to overcome each of the problems as they came up to make the whole process as easy as it could possibly be. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking to use their services.
Amazing, thorough, dedicated to excellent customer service. This was my experience when working with Michelle during a recent consultation in consideration of acquiring a business partnership. Her clear insight into our company s needs were able to save us thousands of dollars and manpower. If you are looking to buy or sell a business you will not find a more dedicated and efficient Team. Thank you for everything.
Jeff Moody and Daniel Herring were extremely instrumental in selling our business for us!! Their resources and professional experience was beneficial to insure that our business was sold at a fair value. There care and concern for their clients are a priority, and they are always available for any questions or concerns during the process. Daniel made the entire process simple for us, and relieved us of a lot of stress and worry. I would highly recommend them to anyone either buying or selling a business. Thank you Daniel!
Daniel Herring and ECBI confidentially assisted with the selling of the business we owned for 32 years. They walked us through the process from the initial meeting to the funding date. Daniel was in constant contact and kept us informed. I would recommend engaging Daniel and the ECBI team if you are thinking about selling your business confidentially, and professionally.
Emerald Coast Business Brokers are experienced intermediaries, providing insight into valuing a specific business, all while upholding confidentiality.
I have had two great experiences with Emerald Coast Business Brokers! After my brother and I successfully sold our vacation management company a few years ago with their help, we suggested that my father list his association management business. They brought several offers to the table and it resulted in another successful sale! They are professional, smart, thorough, and represented us well. I would highly recommend their services to anyone seriously considering buying or selling a business in the area!!
I had no idea who to turn to, who to trust, or even what to do in ordertor sell my business. My book keeper recommended these guys and the rest is history. Daniel and Jeff made the entire process a comfortable experience. They are professional, very helpful, and most of all honest. I highly recommend them when buying or selling a business.
Highly recommend Daniel Herring as a business broker! His knowledge and work ethic is second to none. Daniel helped my brother and I sell our spa business. Although selling a niche business is a very tough task, Daniel was up for the challenge and was able to help us navigate the stressful waters. He always had a positive attitude and would go out of his way to answer our questions in record time. He made the process way easier than it is and led us to a successful sale. If you need help selling your business, call Daniel. Thanks Daniel for all your help!
