4 Types of Business Brokers

• The Big Houses with 100+ agents• Good ‘ol Boy Brokers run by retired

executives• Mom & Pop Shops• Us (Corporate Business Brokers, Inc.)

We’re Different

First Type of Business Broker

• The Big Houses with 100+ Agents. To them, you are nothing more than a number. The more listings their shop has, the more buyer calls they will get - giving them a shot at selling something.

• Confidentiality is a HUGE risk because your files are accessed by everyone.

2nd Type of Business Broker

• Good ‘ol Boy Brokers run by retired executives. They really don’t sell anything and could care less because they’re living on a pension. Their business card gives them something to hand out and talk about at the local country club.

• They hardly ever return a phone call or sell anything

3rd Type of Business Broker

• Mom & Pop Shops - Pop works out of a spare bedroom in the house, and mom sometimes answers the phone.

• They actually do a little business, but they’re so busy doing everything all by themselves, they never answer the phone, and hardly ever return a phone call or email.

One Size Fits All Marketing Program

They All have a One Size Fits All Marketing Program For Your Business

This “Take It Or Leave It” Mentality Does More Harm Than Good ….

Types of Business Brokers

If you’re comfortable with being nothing more than a number, could care less about confidentiality ….

Types of Business Brokers

… and don’t mind waiting forever for a return call, and being told there is only a One Size Fits All Marketing Program For Your Business then by all means, go with one of the first three because we don’t operate that way.

The Proprietary Information will be kept confidential and shall not, without the prior written consent of CBB, be disclosed by PROSPECT or its agents, representatives or employees, in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, and shall not be used by PROSPECT, its agents, representatives or employees, other than in connection with the purchase of one of the opportunities described above. PROSPECT shall be fully responsible for any breach of this Agreement by itself, its agents, representatives or employees.

CBB does not make any representations and/or warranties as to the accuracy of the information provided and that PROSPECT is to make his or her own independent evaluation of the opportunities described above. PROSPECT acknowledges that CBB has advised PROSPECT to seek independent professional advice in the review and evaluation of the information provided and that PROSPECT should seek the advice of an attorney and/or certified public accountant. 3. In the event PROSPECT discloses the availability of said designated opportunities to a third party who purchases a business without CBB assistance, then PROSPECT, in addition to the remedies specified herein, is also responsible for payment of CBB ’s compensation which would have been paid on the listed selling price or minimum compensation, whichever is greater. 4. For two years from the date of this Agreement, PROSPECT agrees not to deal directly or indirectly with the Seller’s of the opportunities listed above without the prior written consent of CBB. If PROSPECT enters into a sale and/or purchase agreement, a management contract or other financial arrangement with a Seller of an opportunity, including a leasing of the business premises from the Seller or its Landlord is consummated, PROSPECT shall be liable for any and all damages CBB may suffer, including but not limited to the Seller’s commission payable on the sales price or minimum commission due under the Listing Agreement with Seller, whichever is greater and, any commission due on the lease agreement negotiated with the Landlord.

The parties hereby agree that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement would involve complicated and difficult factual and legal issues.

The Seller is the intended beneficiary of all covenants of PROSPECT which benefit the Seller, including without limitation the covenants concerning the use of information disclosed to PROSPECT, and a Seller may bring an action to enforce such covenants. PROSPECT represents and warrants to CBB that PROSPECT does not represent a third party, governmental agency or competitor of the business, nor is PROSPECT employed by a competitor and the sole purpose for receiving any information regarding a business is to purchase said business. PROSPECT acknowledges receiving a copy of this Agreement and a facsimile copy with signatures shall be considered as original.
