Your stories of trust

At Small Biz Exit, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service and results. Here’s what our clients have to say about their experience working with us.

Kerri R.
Owner of Childish Things in Boulder, CO
I started working with Small Biz Exit last year.  Both Vena and Teresa have been great to work with.  They respond quickly to my questions, are thorough in their work, and consistently provide clear, helpful information.   I've been very happy with this team of women and am happy to recommend them to others looking to sell their store.  
Laurel H.
Owner of It's So You Resale in Willoughby, OH
As a resale owner for 15 years, I'm contemplating selling my business.  I was fortunate to know Vena and felt comfortable with her new business venture to have them do the initial appraisal of my business. I now am equipped to make knowledgeable decisions about my store's future.  I can't stress enough their professionalism and knowledge. 5 Stars.
Colleen L.R.
Owner of Monkey in Hats
Vena is a walking wealth of knowledge in the resale industry, and Teresa’s expertise in valuations and strategy is extraordinary. I’ve watched Vena grow, dominate live selling, and truly know her numbers, while Teresa brings unmatched selling prowess. Together they not only help owners sell but also prepare years in advance to maximize value. Their exclusive focus on resale makes them stand out in the industry, and their professionalism is unmatched. I highly recommend them and continue to promote them!
Vena H.
Former owner of Selective Seconds
Teresa listed and helped sell my shop in February 2024. Having a business broker is essential. She not only vetted all interested buyers, but was there to answer any and all questions. Having a broker helped me focus on continuing to run the business and prepare for the sale. After the sale was complete, I realized how valuable having a broker was. There are lots of back and forth with negotiations, and It’s often very emotional discussions. Having someone represent me was invaluable during this process.
