Doug made selling our stores easy. He kept us posted on potential buyers and ways to market our business better. He and Brad found us a buyer quickly and we closed within 6 weeks. Highly recommend. Thank you!

At Sunbelt Business Advisors, I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Brad Peterson and Doug Pedersen.
Reaching retirement age, I decided to contact Sunbelt to pursue the possibility of selling my company. Brad and Doug immediately went to work compiling all my financial records and doing an in-depth analysis of my business and how best to reach 10,000 buyers. In a short time, I was realizing that my plan to retire was fulfilled in the most professional manner you could possibly imagine.
