Strategic Business Brokerage is business brokerage firm with ...a different affiliation Strategic Business Brokerage was established as a new division of ERA Titletown residential real estate in Green Bay, Wis. It’s the first of its kind in the country and it gives Strategic Business Brokerage a national database of buyers and sellers through ERA franchises nationwide. ...a different outlook I’d like to introduce myself. I’m Jim Hokanson, CBI, Strategic Business Brokers’ business brokerage professional. I have more than 3 years of experience in selling businesses just like yours. Just as important, I have valuable experience as a former business owner. So I respect and relate to your challenges and needs as a business owner as other business brokers may not. I got into this business because I am passionate about matching the right buyers and sellers at the right time – not for the paycheck. To me, it’s not just about getting you to sign a contract. It’s about getting a fair valuation for your business, finding the right buyer and ensuring the transaction is well thought out and planned. I believe that businesses sell themselves. My role is to learn about your business in depth so I can find the right buyer and educate the buyer on why the opportunity is right for him or her. ...a different way of doing business Because I’ve walked in the shoes of a business owner, I can appreciate what it’s like for you to sell your business. Most business owners have never sold their businesses before, so it’s a new – and sometimes intimidating – experience. I’m committed to educating you every step of the way. That’s why I position myself as an educator more than a salesman. A resource more than a transaction maker. I believe that, with the right education, the sale will naturally follow – at the right time and to the right buyer.
