Meet the Collaborative deal team. This group of experienced, caring professionals help small business sellers and buyers achieve their goals.
We think brokering a change in business ownership should be a collaborative process, rather than something to be handled by one person trying to do everything. Having the right resources involved leads to better outcomes for all parties.
Collaborative combines highly-skilled team members with expert partners – CPAs, attorneys, bankers – to take an approach that is truly collaborative and leverages many skills and experiences. This is a unique model in the business brokerage industry, and the foundation of how we operate.
Below you can learn more about our deal team, including internal team members and strategic partners.

Strategic Partners
Over the years we have developed strong relationships with an elite group of strategic partners. Collaborative’s preferred partner group is comprised of individuals and firms that are experts in their respective fields, and have specialized experience in the world of small business ownership change.
For some functions these partners are engaged as a standard part of our service offering, as with the financials of every business being independently reviewed and prepared for sale by our CPA firm. And other functions, like legal counsel, are engaged based on specific transaction needs.
Each partner shares the same objective – to help our clients achieve their goals.
