Sell Your Cloud Computing Company

I want to share my experience with DealPipe and, especially, with David Marcheschi, who assisted me in selling my software business. It was a months-long process that David managed superbly, guiding and assisting me every step of the way through multiple buyer calls, demos, and negotiations. In the end we found a buyer who was ready to close without any third-party financing, which really sped things up. I can only imagine how hard David was working behind the scenes, vetting potential buyers and letting me focus on the important things. I could not have handled this on my own, and I heartily recommend David as a top-notch broker who will have your interests at heart.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Doug Grindstaff and Lenny Farber at DealPipe during an M&A transaction in which I acquired an e-commerce company. Although Doug and Lenny were the seller’s investment bankers and I was the buyer, their roles were absolutely critical to the successful completion of the deal.

Working through the complexities of mergers and acquisitions takes skill, professionalism, and exceptional communication abilities. Doug and Lenny both showed these qualities in spades. They were instrumental in educating the seller about the process, aligning expectations, and driving the deal forward at every stage.

In transactions like this, contentious moments are not uncommon. Those were the moments when Doug and Lenny’s true value became clear. Their ability to defuse potentially difficult issues through calm professionalism, clear communication, and fair negotiation kept both parties focused on the ultimate goal.

Even though they represented the seller, they understood how important balance and collaboration between both sides are. Good investment bankers make a world of difference in M&A transactions, and Doug and Lenny undoubtedly belong in that category.

I look forward to working with them again on our next transaction, whether on the buying or the selling side. Their contribution, both in technical expertise and in facilitating a smooth, transparent process, has left a lasting impression.

I wholeheartedly recommend Doug and Lenny at DealPipe to anyone involved in similar transactions. Their communication skills, integrity, and commitment to a successful outcome set them apart in this highly competitive field.

This review is about my experience in 2015, when I sold two internet companies. The sale price for the companies was over 350,000 USD. My broker for these sales was Grier Holiday, and he will remain my broker as I move forward. Within 3 months, he and his team had sold both of my companies.

After owning Bower Web Solutions, Inc., a web design and digital marketing company, for 23 years, I decided the time had come to sell. I had never done this before and was unsure where to begin. Another business owner, who had successfully sold his own company with Paul’s help, referred me to Paul Volen at DealPipe.

Paul educated me and prepared me for the sale. He helped me price my company, made sure my financials were in order, and identified which products and services added value. He excelled at finding and vetting prospective buyers, making sure they were serious and financially qualified before I ever met them. I truly believe I could not have sold my company successfully without Paul’s assistance.

Working with Paul also gave me access to additional leads from other business brokers at DealPipe, which helped us find more qualified buyers. During negotiations Paul was invaluable, offering support and advice throughout the process.

I highly recommend Paul Volen to anyone who wants to sell or buy a business. He truly cares about the success of the transaction, not just about making a sale. I continue to recommend Paul to business owners who are considering an exit strategy, and I suggest starting early with a company like DealPipe, because preparing a business for sale takes time.

I hope this review helps other prospective sellers find a trustworthy broker who gets the job done. Thanks again, Paul and DealPipe!

Tom was a consummate professional. The information he provided was complete and very timely. As the buyer of the website company, I found our relationship to be very consultative. He was candid and direct, gave full disclosure, and genuinely cared that this was the “right deal” for both buyer and seller.

What can I say! Having DealPipe and Alex as my broker has been more than amazing. Alex promised my store would sell, and that guarantee was kept! Beyond that, Alex updated me regularly on how my store was progressing. He tells you when an offer comes in, suggests what to add to your listing, and keeps you constantly in the loop on what is happening. That is far better than other website brokers, who vanish after a few weeks and leave you in the dark. If you are thinking about selling your business, I can’t stress enough that DealPipe is the best place to go. I truly appreciate the hard work and dedication Alex puts into everything he does. 10/10!

It was my pleasure to work with Bill Gustin and Matt Seymour on the successful sale of my business. From the first meeting until closing, they were heavily involved and guided every step of the process. I confidently recommend Bill, Matt, and DealPipe to anyone who wants to sell their business.

We have purchased businesses in the past, and I used to ask myself why we would need to pay a broker. After this experience I see how valuable they are. Thank you, Lassiter. I am happy to say they are worth it, and the connection would not have been made without this website.

I don’t remember how I first found DealPipe. I do remember the moment when I had to choose DealPipe over other brokerages. I looked through their website, with listings across categories from physical to internet businesses, e-commerce, and Amazon FBA businesses, a wide range of valuations, and proven success stories. I decided on DealPipe because it fit our nutritional products and our company size and, most importantly, because of the success rate. It turned out to be the right choice.

Honestly speaking, the process was complex for someone like me, a marketing guy. I had never been involved in any M&A activities. However, everything was explained well on their website and by the team members working on our deal.

Still, I believe it is much simpler than traditional M&A activities. For us as sellers, working with DealPipe was less time-consuming, which let us keep running our small business day by day and keep our performance up for a successful closing. We had to keep delivering the results potential buyers expected.

The good news is that DealPipe handled a number of important tasks, such as looking for potential buyers, screening them, and arranging meetings. After that we had weekly meetings with potential buyers to conduct due diligence and close the deal, all 100% on Zoom. That’s amazing.

And the results turned out to be perfect. My team and I were 100% happy with Paul Vartanian and DealPipe. Paul was highly focused and put in 110% effort to meet our goals, with 24-hour support 7 days a week. He put our interests first. He was patient in explaining the process and gave us the facts we needed to make decisions. He did not push or urge us to do things for the sake of the brokers.

I strongly recommend DealPipe for selling your business.

As an owner getting ready for my exit, I could not have been luckier than to have Tom Howard as my business broker. Tom delivered on what mattered most to me. He grasped our business structure quickly, set and achieved a sale price in line with my expectations and our corporate financials, and brought in appropriate buyers. Tom is a seasoned, highly capable broker who is determined to meet the many challenges a business sale presents. The process was structured and transparent. At every stage Tom shared advice and a suite of contacts, which gave me access to skilled financial advisers, bankers, and qualified buyers. I would work with Tom on a future sale without hesitation.
