Mike Metzger is a very busy broker. There is a reason, and you will appreciate it. Mike helped us sell our fitness business, which by its own nature, is very difficult to sell. We weren't the easiest clients (and we certainly weren't the biggest fish in his tank). We asked a lot, but no matter what, Mike gave a lot. He's professional. He gives it to you straight and doesn't waste time with playing to your ego. It's important to have someone that will tell you what you need to hear, instead of just saying what you want to hear. He's polite, even when you are stressed and you might not be at your own best. He's always on time and he always values yours. He doesn't entertain tire kickers, only those who show they have the ability to get the deal done. We used a couple of brokers before we found Mike. Because of our experience with the others, we understand why Mr. Metzger shines in this business. If you are looking to change directions and sell what you have built up over the years, do yourself a great service and get Mr. Metzger on the case. My wife and I would recommend him a thousand times over----we are not actors & this was not a paid advertisement.

Mike handled our sale very well considering many unforeseen complications. In the end, he was very fair and reasonable.

He worked with me the entire time in the most competent and knowledgeable manner and was a partner and a friend. He found me many interested parties, his reach is global, (The purchasers of my businesses were from United Arab Emirates) and we completed the deal overcoming barriers due to the deal complexity. You will not be disappointed!

I was the buyer this time. While I know he represented the seller, I always trusted Mike to tell me the truth. He was extremely responsive and communicated well. His checklists and other resources were very helpful. And he stayed on top of every detail until after the deal was closed. I look forward to being his friend and working with him more in the future.

When I decided to sell the company I founded in 1998 I reached out to Mike Metzger to see if he would be able to assist with the transaction. He was able to find a buyer that was a great fit for my niche business and was there for us throughout the entire process. He made himself available and answered all of my questions promptly. He helped make selling my business less stressful by paying attention to every detail along the way.

I recently sold my business to Accent Professional Recruiting and I must say that I could not possibly have made this happen without the tireless, patient and highly professional way that Mike Metzger of Murphy Business Solutions was able to get both the buyer and myself over the finish line.

He started by patiently working with me to determine the value of the business, then followed up with me to qualify several prospective buyers based on my special criteria he helped me to identify. With many employees in my service-based business, my desire to protect them was predominant, and Mike went the extra mile to dig deeper with the many finalists, while continuing to be responsive to my many questions. When I was getting close to selling to a buyer I had chosen, but the buyer’s finances unpredictably caused the buyer to stop moving ahead, Mike turned the lemons we were presented into lemonade very astutely - Mike arranged a controlled offer process whereby all prospective buyers were asked to submit their best offers by a fair deadline. This process led to several excellent bids from which I selected three finalists and chose a buyer within a short period. I am delighted not only with the financial facets of the sale, but my employees’ interests are protected and my legacy in the business is being preserved with the buyer chosen with Mike’s knowledge and careful guidance. The experience with Mike ranks as one the best in my 40+ years of professional experience, and I eagerly endorse Mike as a business broker to get the results that you need and want for you and your business.

Mike Metzger was a pleasure to work with. Buying a business for the first time can be intimidating. Even though Mike represented the seller, his genuine concern for the buyer's needs was apparent. Mike stayed on top of every detail until the deal was closed, even working and being available during his vacation to ensure we met our closing deadline.

He was diligent in advertising the business and then screening interested parties. He protected our privacy to the upmost so that no one in our area even knew we were selling, as we requested. He was very organized and prepared for anything that came along. During the actual selling process, he walked me through what to expect and how to provide documents that the buyer's lender requested. It was all new to me, but he helped me every step along the way. He was professional and trustworthy at all times, and I would trust him any time with my business or personal affairs. I was so glad I had him in my corner and his support made the whole process much easier. I would never consider anyone else to sell my business. He is an exceptional broker and special person.

As I began to get closer to my retirement, I considered selling my business but had no idea where to begin. Then I met Mike Metzger I felt as if I had known him for years immediately He explained the process of selling a business to me This gave me a better understanding of what is involved As we began the process, I came to realize that Mike was very organized and knowledgeable This coupled with his guidance would allow my wife and I the focus needed to achieve the benchmarks as they came to us From the time we collected information to create a listing, interviewing buyers to developing a contract thru to the closing, Mike's Guidance and patience was amazing. He was able to take us from listing to closing in 6 months during a pandemic. He managed to make the process of selling our business comfortable for my wife & I and also able to get the sale price we wanted I would highly recommend anyone interested in selling their business to talk with Mike first. He was a pleasure to work with.
