Private, Off-Market Transitions for Serious RIAs

You're asking the right questions and making me think… I don’t think anybody really goes through this like that. You think there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, but there are things you just don’t think about — and you’re helping me think about them. I appreciate that.

I’d have to say it’s definitely serendipitous — because the only way I thought I’d ever find a succession partner was going to conferences, grabbing a drink, and hoping to meet someone. That never put me in a powerful position. But you all streamlined the process. You know the business, you know the details, and now it’s part of my big plan.

You guys did a really good job. The service, the product you’re bringing me, is just perfected. It’s like I went to a fine restaurant — the maître d’ and everyone standing there, serving me. I’m thinking, “God, where do I get this high-level service?” Anyway, much love to you guys.

"How you handled the calls with me. I appreciate your talent. I appreciate your skills."

"These exercises have forced me to come to grips with the fact that I'm probably not ready for an outright sale."

"I really appreciate the process, the conversation, because it's challenging me to think through the things that y'all, the questions you're asking me, because I've got to process it and decide, maybe not, well, decide and reconcile certain things in my head."
