Selling A Business
Equity Group Of Michigan
Selling Your Business?
Experience Matters.
Partner with The Equity Group for a Smarter Sale
At The Equity Group, we specialize in delivering comprehensive Merger & Acquisition (M&A) services designed to streamline and strengthen your business sale. While some owners attempt to navigate the sales process on their own, doing so often results in unnecessary delays, limited exposure, and weaker negotiating positions.
Relying on a single buyer or lead can restrict your leverage and reduce the likelihood of receiving competitive offers. That’s why working with a seasoned, knowledgeable Sell-Side Broker is essential for maximizing your business’s value and ensuring a smooth, successful transition.
A Proven Process. Real Results.
Many successful business owners credit their achievements to seeking expert guidance at the right time. At The Equity Group, our mission is clear: to help business owners of all sizes realize their full potential and exit on their terms. We do this with integrity, strategic insight, and an unwavering commitment to your goals.
Our track record speaks for itself—a history of successful transactions across diverse industries and business sizes (EGM has sold more than 115 transactions in the last four years), all delivered with personalized care and professional excellence.

Our Advantages
Time:
We are dedicated to your search and can efficiently find and screen multiple potential target buyers utilizing a broad array of proprietary databases as well as our extensive network of business contacts. This approach also enables us to find prospective companies before they contact us. We can complete the process faster and weed out buyers that are not really serious about buying (tire-kickers).
Focus:
We specialize in arranging the purchase and sale of companies. A buyer search is a time-consuming process, and for us it is not a side project. This allows our clients to concentrate on leading their existing organizations or to focus on their current jobs while we drive the process using client input. We utilize multiple databases, internet marketing e-mails, web-based marketing websites, including those powered by the Wall Street Journal, BizBuy Sell, Bizquest, etc. and targeted direct mail via US First Class Mail.
Experience:
Our team boasts over a century of combined expertise in mergers and acquisitions and business leadership. We've successfully closed 85 transactions in the last few years. Mergers and acquisitions are our forte, and we excel at it!

Hard Knocks: Everyone on our team has bought businesses for our own account in the past – some good, some not so good. We know things to look out for and can help avoid pitfalls and protect you, the seller.
The X-Factor:
Most of all, what sets us apart is we CARE about you, our client. It is not just another transaction. We value building a long-term relationship with you and your organization. We realize that orchestrating a bad acquisition, or having a rocky transaction, is in no one’s best interest – yours, the seller’s, or ours. We evaluate the purchase as if we were making it ourselves, with our own money. Your success means a lot to us.

Confidentiality:
Some businesses, such as historic landmarks or famous establishments, can actually benefit from officially announcing they are for sale. Yet, for most businesses, maintaining confidentiality can be extremely important during the business sale process, as well as post-sale so you can reach your exit goals.
If word gets out to your creditors, customers, competitors, or employees that the business is being sold, it could trigger a negative reaction, weakening your business momentum and therefore its value. Moreover, prospective buyers may become hesitant if they feel sensitive information has been shared with others.
Once you start marketing your business for sale, confidentiality can be tricky, but less so if you are working with an experienced business broker such as Equity. Equity is experienced at fielding inquiries from would-be buyers and reaching out to prospects without ever mentioning you or your company name. Confidentiality is not worth risking. We often meet at your business with prospective buyers when the business operations are closed either at night or early in the morning. Confidentiality is top priority at Equity! Confidentiality is not worth risking damaging the value of your company.
