W3 Business Advisors is a Chicago based merger and acquisition firm that deals exclusively with internet-based companies. Unlike traditional business brokers, who represent a diverse variety of brick-and-mortar businesses, our brokers have the industry specific insight needed to successfully market your internet business, negotiate with qualified buyers and bring value to the process unsurpassed by the competition.
When determining the best listing strategy for your business, it is crucial that you choose to work with brokers who have M&A experience with internet-based companies and can guide you every step of the way. Understanding the internet business market is the key to effective valuations, marketing and ultimately the negotiations for any internet-based company. Our business advisors consider all aspects when determining your company's value including the less tangible assets, such as organic traffic rankings, business models, website infrastructure, past / current financial performance, proprietary software code and supplier relationships. By focusing on your company's most attractive selling points, we take all necessary steps to ensure we deliver competitive offers that will ultimately lead to a successful transaction.
Our team has the expertise needed to guide our clients through the complex process of selling an online business which most business owners have little to no experience with. We handle everything; beginning with understanding your business goals, determining an appropriate value for your company, negotiating with qualified buyers and preparing a deal structure that works for both parties. Our M&A services are tailored to meet the unique requirements of each client ensuring both the buyer and the seller have a positive experience.
