   Benchmark Business Group

   Jul 2017 — Present · Des Moines, IA, US

   Benchmark Business Group was founded with a passionate belief that owning a business shouldn\'t be a day to day struggle filled with frustrations, but rather an opportunity to better yourself, your employees, and your community. We believe in Value Realized: realizing value in business ownership throughout the entire business life cycle. When you are ready to sell or transition your business, we will take the time to learn about your business, your assets, cash flow, track record, and your growth prospects to determine the top price a buyer might pay in today\'s market. We maintain strict confidentiality of your vital business relationships with customers, employees, suppliers, banks, and creditors during the transaction while minimizing disruption to your daily business operations as we support you in evaluating offers from qualified buyers. If you are interested in receiving a confidential evaluation of what your business may be worth in today\'s market, please reach out to me at b••••••@benchmarkbusinessgroup.com and I would be pleased to provide you with this service.
