Buying, Selling or Merging
is
Nerve Wracking
No Matter Which Side Of The
Table You Are Sitting
 Here's why...
Guilt and Risk -
Sellers often struggle with letting the family business and good name go.
They worry that customers, key employees and future profitability may be
at risk.
Refuse to Talk - For buyers, getting
even a foot in the door can be challenging, especially if you are
perceived as a tough competitor. It can be discouraging to find out a
marketer you always wanted to buy and tried repeatedly to court with zero
success just sold to another competitor and you weren't even invited to
the table.
Deal Blows Up - Ever heard about a
deal going along fine until a snag? Tempers flare, feelings get hurt and
that's when the entire negotiation comes to a screeching halt. The result?
Both buyer and seller's time and money invested is down the drain.
Here's how we can help you.
#1) Provide you with
the right price. The right price is true market value without
any emotion pulling it inappropriately up or down. Gain from
Meridian's unbiased, accurate market valuations. No more haggling.
You'll enter your next transaction with confidence.
#2) Collaborate on ownership, leadership and family
strategies. Every owner has a unique personal agenda. We
understand individual dynamics and work with both parties for
optimal solutions, including creatively solving multi-generational
issues and concerns.
#3) Keep your transaction smoothly on track. As your
third party buffer, we absorb and deflect any emotional upheaval
that arises. We find the best way to get past snags is careful
avoidance and that's where our experience and attention to detail
keeps you out of typical pitfalls. If any unusual situations arise,
we bring "out-of-the-box" solutions that keep your transaction
speeding to the closing.
#4) Provide documentation resulting in reduced legal fees.
From Letter of Intent to Purchase Agreement to Due Diligence
checklists, Meridian's arsenal of industry segment-specific
documentation helps keep attorney time and fees in check.
#5) Get you to the finish line (and beyond) happy.
With Meridian on your side, expertly advising you when you hit bumps
in the road, diffusing potential blow ups, drawing on our years of
experience in highly successful transactions, you'll find closing
day and the critical few months afterwards to be better than you
ever thought it could be, happy you moved forward.
#6) Utmost confidentiality - And finally, our 20 year
track record of privacy speaks for itself. It's why Meridian is
trusted by over 3,300 marketers nationwide. Your details are
completely safe with us. |
Why choose
Meridian if you are wanting to sell?
Utilizing a database of thousands of marketers
nationwide, and with our own extensive customer base, we have access to
qualified buyers from coast to coast. Your property is privately marketed
to a much wider spectrum of prospective buyers than traditional brokerage
firms. In addition, our industry knowledge gives you an invaluable
advantage during the negotiation process.
Meridian Associates and Betsi Bixby discretely helped match buyers and
sellers, without direct involvement in the sale, for over a decade. Now,
at the request of our clients, we are pleased to offer a very affordable
and completely confidential brokering service.
From the required market-based valuation - to prospectus preparation - to
marketing - to final negotiations, let Meridian's years of petroleum
financial experience go to work for your business.
"Within several months after
listing our business with Meridian the business was sold. We
received a figure very close to Betsi's appraisal. If you are
considering selling out you should give Betsi a call. Her contacts
in the industry are difficult to equal."
-- Ralph Dobson, Former Owner B & R Oil |
