Transworld Business Advisors of Eastern NC

www.tworld.com/eastern-nc

Greenville, North Carolina

I specialize in listing Off-Market, Lower to Middle Market listings, the majority of which are not published on any of the business for sale websites.

My wife and I own and run Transworld Business Advisors of Eastern NC, touching in and around over half of North Carolina's counties and with a team of 15 professional business advisors, many of which are licensed real estate agents. Our team has closed transactions up and down the east coast of the United States and prospers through a strong and trusted referral network of centers of influencers. In 2023, our team was recognized by the International Business Brokers Association with the Chairman's Circle Award for outstanding performance.

We back our work with the strength of the Transworld Business Advisors network — the world leader in the marketing and sale of businesses, franchises and commercial real estate, with 45+ years in business, 10,000 businesses sold, 750+ advisors and 250+ offices worldwide, and a database of over 850,000 pre-qualified buyers.

When a company owner needs to sell their business, they can’t just stick a for sale sign in the window. They need the assistance of a business broker to locate and vet potential buyers. On the other side, buyers rely on the broker to help facilitate the process of evaluating potential businesses and franchises for sale. A Transworld Business Advisor is the solution for both scenarios. Transworld Business Advisors focuses on three core concepts: business brokerage, franchise consulting, and franchise development.

About

I specialize in listing Off-Market, Lower to Middle Market listings, the majority of which are not published on any of the business for sale websites. My goal is to help you build your wealth and fulfill your personal and business goals — backed by over 35 years of experience owning and running businesses, buying and selling real estate, and serving the communities where I work, live, invest and play.

The Selling Process
Our Sellers come to us to help them achieve the highest and best possible price for your business while taking the least amount of time from you and your company. We know that your time is more valuable when invested in continuing to run your company. In order to achieve the best price, your company must continue to grow. After all, that will be what a buyer who wants to purchase it will be looking for.

The Buying Process
Buying a business is one of the biggest decisions you'll ever make. With the right research, the right advice, and the right guidance through each step, it can be a straightforward, well-managed transaction rather than a long and difficult one.

Franchising
Transworld Business Advisors offers franchise consulting for people looking for an efficient, well-informed way to explore franchise ownership before making an investment. We represent over 300 franchises and business opportunities across a wide range of industries and investment levels, and our franchise consultants guide you through a structured process to help find the right fit for your goals.
