I was ready to sell immediately, but EastWind showed me what was possible with proper preparation. Their guidance helped us improve operations and financial management, creating $900,000 in additional working capital before sale. The patience paid off—we attracted a better buyer and achieved a significantly higher valuation than I initially expected.
Owner
From the first meeting with Tim Fawcett at EastWind it was evident that Tim was very professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. Tim worked very hard making sure we got the best deal. He has the ability to keep both sides of the sale moving along smoothly. We are very happy with our dealings with EastWind. Selling our business was a big deal and Tim did not candy coat it; he told us from the beginning it would not be easy but it would sell and it did thanks to Tim’s dedication and positive outlook. I would highly recommend EastWind if you are looking to sell or buy a business.
Philip Hunter
Tim went above and beyond for us throughout the entire process. He was professional from our first meeting, kept us informed at every stage, and handled any issues immediately. We would 100% endorse Tim for anyone looking to sell or buy a business.
Jamie & Josette
Tim’s professionalism allowed us to continue running our business without interruption while he handled the entire sale process. He guided us every step of the way, found the right buyer, and managed all interactions. After 14 years building our heat pump contracting business, we couldn’t have asked for a better transition partner.
