$375,000 Large Check – A Success Story
The firm’s Founder saw a “untapped vertical” of potential business for its Partners back in 2009. A part of this vision was to create services for this untapped vertical that would provide to our Partners fees that wildly exceeded anything offered in the market. He realized this would not be easy and began the process to invent tools, along with other Partners and experts. Some of the tools invented were: Client Agreements that comply with the SEC and FINRA. Those Agreements were created and published in 2015.A book to educate business owners and the firm’s Partners. That book, The Exit Strategy Handbook, was published in 2013 and is now an award-winning book.Due diligence software, which was published in 2013. That product, B2B Exit® Software, was awarded two patents by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, one in 2019 and another in 2021.The internal educational course, Certified Business Transition Expert™, which was published in 2015 and has continuously been taught to Partners. All of the above were created to help our Partners to service this “untapped vertical,” which we call the Large Check. This phrase has two meanings: External – Helping our clients earn a 7-8 figure check with this opportunity.Internal – Helping our Partners to earn significantly higher-than-market fees. ($1,000 to $16,000 an hour.) Our latest Large Check success story Our previous record for an internal Large Check was $350,000, which was earned by a Partner in Northern California.
