About Certified Acquisitions

Our Mission: At CAA, our mission is to provide entrepreneurs with the professional representation needed to bring transactions to successful conclusions.  Ownership transfers for over 75% of businesses listed for sale never materialize.  Our mission at CAA is to dramatically reduce this unacceptable failure rate and help both sellers and buyers fulfill their dreams.

Our Clients can rely on our intermediaries and consultants,
each of whom have attained certification as an expert in their chosen field or have operated at the C-Level or very senior level of executive management.  At CAA, our Certified and C-Level Intermediaries understand the complex issues faced by both purchasers and sellers of businesses.  We bring real world, practical expertise to the deal structuring and negotiating arena.

 

We’re Different: Certified, C-Level and Senior Executive designations make us stand apart from the typical and customary Intermediary or Business Broker.  We bring proven business experience and professional credentials to each engagement.  As objective advisors, our perspective builds on the subjective outlook of our entrepreneur clients and our differences strengthen the relationship.  Our consultants are unbiased, and being removed from the emotional and historical perspectives of the businesses we serve, can offer the matter-of-fact tough advice and guidance needed to bring every transaction to a successful conclusion.


Mergers & Acquisitions Advisors

Our clients tell us that our focus, level of education and training, and "Big 4" firm experience sets us apart.  We have the most appropriate certifications, specializations and advanced degrees to serve the M&A marketplace.

We are more than Business Brokers, we are M&A Advisors specializing in the Florida marketplace.  M&A Advisors focus on serving clients in the middle market arena.  Those that call themselves business brokers generally serve a different clientele than M&A Advisors and tend to focus on smaller transactions.

We market our M&A clients to sophisticated buyers who may not be located in the same geographical area as the client.  To bring the deals to closure, and bring our clients success, the companies we represent must be marketed in a highly professional manner.  We bring our backgrounds and skill sets to the M&A process by standing ready as transaction advisors.  We assist clients as they navigate through the oftentimes lengthy negotiation, due diligence and documentation processes.

Many companies seeking acquisitions will look at a multitude of potential acquisition candidates before choosing the best target.  To address this, we actively coach our clients in proper preparation strategies.  This allows our clients to focus on running their business, while we focus on getting it sold.

When the deal is consummated, if requested, we will help locate appropriate local executives to assist the team on the buy-side.
