Well, I guess I can start calling myself the Stephen Miller of business sales! 😂

Not getting political, but I had to laugh when I saw the front page of today’s New York Post.

WARTIME CONSIGLIERE.

I’ve used the word consigliere for years to describe what I believe a great business broker and M&A advisor should be.

Not just someone who gives advice. Someone who is firmly in your corner.

Someone who tells you the truth, even when it’s not what you want to hear. Someone who will challenge you, protect your interests, and fight for you when it matters.

I’ve spent more than 20 years helping business owners sell their companies, and one thing I’ve never believed in is being a passive middleman.

I’m an advocate for my clients. Period.

Selling a business is often the biggest financial transaction of an owner’s life. They deserve someone who treats it that way.

So, politics aside, I appreciate the comparison.

Every business owner needs a good consigliere in their corner.

In my last post, I shared a story about a jerk buyer on a $10M construction deal.

A few people asked: why would I tell my sellers about my bad experience with that buyer? It could kill the deal. And if the deal dies, I don't get paid.

That's the job of a consigliere. The most trusted advisor at the table. He serves one family, and he tells the boss the truth, even when it's unwelcome and even when it costs him.

My sellers had a strong offer in hand. The easy move was to keep quiet and close. Instead, I told them what I'd seen. They made the call with the full picture.

For years I've tried to make business brokerage and M&A a ministry as much as a job. Colossians 3:17.

The highest number on the page isn't always the best deal at the table. Whether it's $25M or $250K.

Just got a strong offer on a $10M construction company.

The buyer was a jerk to me the whole way through. So I told my sellers.

Their reply: "I can say with certainty I don't want to spend the next two to five years dealing with someone you're not fond of after only a few weeks of dealing with him."

They're right. With a seller note, the owner doesn't walk away at closing. His people, his customers and his payout all depend on that buyer for years.

The price tells you what he'll pay. How he treats people tells you whether you'll get paid.

We're officially 31 days into this government shutdown, and SBA loan processing has been paused for the foreseeable future. This means many buyers relying on SBA financing could experience delays in closing.

At Sigma Mergers & Acquisitions, we’ve closed countless transactions using creative financing structures, designed to keep momentum strong.

Our experienced team knows how to navigate uncertain times, structure win-win terms, and get deals across the finish line, regardless of government delays.
