"Reaching the decision to sell your business is one of the toughest challenges entrepreneurs will wrestle with. All business owners want to ensure that their company and employees will continue to have a successful future.

As I moved through all the stages of selling my business, Karl Sigerist and the Shaughnessy Group were actively involved in every step of the process. Karl helped with negotiations with potential buyers, worked with my lawyer and provided input and guidance on an ongoing basis. I feel strongly that Karl helped me to maximize my company’s valuation and ensured that all aspects of the transaction were thoroughly and professionally completed. "

"Starting a process like selling a business is a huge undertaking and a daunting time commitment. When we chose to sell our family business of over 38 years, we had little knowledge of what the process would be like and knew we would have to seek professional advice.
The Shaughnessy Group guided us successfully from start to finish. From lining up interviews with top-tier legal and financial advisors, creating our CIM, managing our data room, and attending all management meetings, the Shaughnessy Group delivered seamlessly.
Karl spent many hours with us on the phone and in virtual meetings, keeping us motivated and positive along the way—gestures that are so needed in a process like this. We ultimately sold our business for much higher than anticipated to a buyer we thoroughly enjoy working with. We would highly recommend The Shaughnessy Group for your next business sale."
