Industries

Every industry values a business differently.

A machine shop and a restaurant with the same cash flow do not sell for the same price, to the same buyers, on the same terms. Here is how we approach the sectors that make up southern Wisconsin's economy.

Where we work

Manufacturing

Machine shops, fabricators, tool and die operations, and specialty manufacturers — Wisconsin's deepest industrial base and its most closely examined deals.

Construction & Contracting

General contractors, specialty subcontractors, excavation and site work firms — project-based businesses where backlog and bonding drive the conversation.

Healthcare & Veterinary

Medical, dental, veterinary, and allied health practices — a category with unusually deep buyer demand from both individual practitioners and consolidators.

1 current listing

Retail & E-Commerce

Specialty retail, main-street storefronts, and online sellers — where inventory, lease, and channel mix decide the price as much as earnings do.

How we sell in this sector
