Principal | M&A Business Intermediary & Broker▪️Helping business owners achieve seamless exit. I love creating concepts & businesses from the ground up. That's what motivated me to start one of my earlier companies, Cleanology, in 2003. House cleaning had a horrible reputation and I knew I could make a positive shift in that industry.
I started with $300 and a vacuum cleaner. So, after founding, growing, acquiring, raising capital, and selling over 20+ businesses of my own across several verticals including cleaning, health + wellness, beauty, technology (SaaS), exotic car rentals, CoLiving, and real estate, I realized that there was a formula behind the perfect business sale and I LOVE helping others do the same! It took me decades to perfect a grand-slam system for buying, selling & acquiring companies - one that works. That’s when friends & fellow entrepreneurs came to me wanting help selling their own businesses that I finally agreed to step in and do what I know best. And the rest, as they say, is history. I now run The Magnolia Firm 🌸, a highly specialized boutique business brokerage firm supporting entrepreneurs through the finish line of the most important steps they will ever take: selling their company.
