Client Testimonials

"I contacted PBB about listing my business 'Don Alans,' and we started evaluating what my business was worth and if it met my expectations to retire comfortably. After a full review, we established a fair market value that was accurate and took my business to market. After only a short period of time, we had multiple offers on the table to purchase 'Don Alans.' Not only did Frank and his team help me sell my business to a very savvy couple, I occasionally put on my suit and helped them out on the store floor and see all the improvements they had made.

I am pleased with the outcome and how easy Pensacola Business Brokers made it to sell my business".

"We owned "Built Rite Signs" for 20+ years and were ready to retire so we contacted PBB about selling our company and real property. Frank and his team helped us understand the process of selling a business and how complicated it can be to help the buyer obtain funding. Frank's ability to communicate with accountants, lenders and lawyers made us genuinely value how important it is to have a knowledgeable broker representing us through the process. We had no idea how many steps would be required before we had a sales agreement.

We recommend Frank and his team to anyone that wants to sell their business".
