Testimonials & Endorsements

“I had contacted Larry five years ago to get the information as to what I would need to do in the future to make my business a good purchase for a future buyer. 

So over the last five years, I had been implementing things we had discussed and even though I thought I would be in business for at least another 10 years, circumstances changed for me personally, and I felt I had done a good job following Larry’s advice. 

I contacted him, and he sold my business literally in one day. He was amazing to work with, and over the few months it took to actually close on the deal, he and his team were exceptional, and I appreciated him so much for all of his knowledge and insight. 

I would highly recommend Larry and his group“

Connie L Hillmann, Accounting Firm Business Owner

“I would like to more than thank you for getting my company sold.

It became clear to me, given the circumstances set (dropping market and extended time). getting the sales done was about a commitment to me and not just a sales commission.

Your perseverance and steady process was a rare benefit. To those who may choose to work with you in the future, I can only say “he knows his business and cares beyond dollars about his clients.“

Greg, Manufacturing Business Owner

I just wanted to send a note to thank you.

I don’t know if you know it or not but another business broker looked at my business a year before you did and he refused to help me. Leaving me only with the option of bankruptcy.

You took on a task that we both knew was going to be tough yet you never gave up and preformed with the highest integrity that I have ever seen.

You are a true professional, and more than that you help those that need the help the most.

I wish you the very best that life can offer.

Perry Collaer, Manufacturing & Retail Business Owner

Having you as the broker representing the sale of my company has probably been the most difficult transaction of your career…. but you completed the task. I commend you. Not only did you screen and vet each inquiry but you used your experience to follow through with the most qualified buyer. You guided the buyer and the officers of his financial institution through the due diligence of showing all the history of the financial data. You were able to give me common sense advice and language I could understand as compared to the complex statements from lawyers and CPA’s. You were always in contact with me explaining and guiding me through every complex step of the way. Larry you really worked hard and diligent to earn your fee.

Dale Altmin, Manufacturing Business Owner

Paul Pfundtner, Manufacturing Business Owner

We were very pleased with the way Larry Heck handled the sale of our business. From the very beginning, when Larry met with us to learn more about the business, right up to closing, Larry was organized, professional and a pleasure to work with!

Robert & Debbie Wiedenfeld

I have had the pleasure of working with Larry Heck on several business transactions. Larry is very knowledgeable about business value as well as managing expectations of the sale. I have found him to treat all parties in the transaction with the utmost care and respect. I know when Larry represents a seller that the transaction will go as smooth as possible. If I had a business to sell, I would Larry on my side. I highly recommend.

Michael Gawlik, Finance

Adam Ausloos, Accounting
“My main objective was to sell my shop as quickly as possible. Summit did a fantastic job listing my business, and we had several interested buyers almost immediately. They wasted no time setting up showings with prospective buyers, and I truly felt they worked hard to get me the price I was looking for.
 
I was very happy with how Summit kept me updated throughout the entire process. When I first listed, I was a little skeptical about whether my business would actually sell. However, after spending some time talking with Larry and Britt, I realized they would make it happen!
 
Larry is very straightforward and puts a lot of effort into the business listing, which really sparks buyer interest. They focus on so many small details that most people would never even think of. Summit will definitely work hard to sell your business, and I would recommend them to anyone looking to sell.”
