I've Been Where You Are

I've started two businesses from the ground up, owned a franchise, and spent the last seven years helping clients buy and sell businesses. I know firsthand how much blood, sweat, and sacrifice goes into building something — and I bring that respect to every client relationship.

With an MBA and deep roots in the Omaha business community, I've built a network of connections that gives my clients a real advantage when it's time to make a move. Whether you're looking to sell the business you've built or find your next opportunity, I'll guide you through every step with honesty and expertise.

And if you're wondering about the name — yes, I'm a golfer. I hold memberships in both Nebraska and Florida, and I love nothing more than getting my clients out on the course. Some of the best business conversations happen on the fairway.

Selling a Business Is a Major Life Decision

I grew up around small businesses. As the son of small business owners, I saw firsthand what it really takes to build something from nothing. The long days, the tough decisions, and the pride that comes with creating something of your own. Because of that, I understand that selling a business isn't just a transaction. It's a major life decision, and it deserves to be handled the right way. That perspective is what drives how I work with my clients today. My goal isn't just to get a deal done, it's to make sure your business ends up in the right hands, and that you walk away with the value you've worked so hard to build.

With a degree in finance and 15 years of experience as a business broker and a top performer in B2B sales, I've been able to help people navigate important decisions and achieve the outcomes they are looking for. Along the way, I've had the opportunity to help a number of business owners successfully exit their companies. Whether that meant retiring or moving on to something new, seeing that transition done right is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

Whether you're a seller looking to maximize your exit or a buyer searching for your next opportunity, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. From initial consultation to closing, my goal is simple: to make the process seamless and successful.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Say About Us

Kevin made the process of finding the perfect franchise incredibly easy. During our introductory call, he asked all the right questions about my vision as a business owner, which allowed him to present several options that were a great fit. I credit Kevin and Charista with introducing me to the franchise I now own.

Matt

Franchise Owner · Las Vegas, NV

Kevin is incredibly supportive, relationship-oriented, and insightful. A lot of brokers are in it for themselves, but Kevin genuinely cares about finding the right fit for his clients. He helped us narrow down options that matched us both personally and professionally — without his guidance, we may have made a huge mistake.
