THE APPROACH

I've been on your side of the table.

I understand that selling a business isn't just a financial decision. It can represent years of work, relationships, and personal investment. I built and sold a business myself, so I know there is more to this decision than a number.

My role is to help you understand your options, prepare thoughtfully, and navigate the process with good information and clear expectations—whether you're ready to sell now or simply exploring what comes next.

HOW I CAN HELP

Good decisions start
with good information.

Every business owner's situation is different. The right next step starts with understanding yours.

01 / SELL
↗

Sell Your Business

From preparation and pricing to finding qualified buyers and navigating the sale, we'll work toward a transition that makes sense for you.

02 / PLAN
◎

Understand Your Value

Even if selling is years away, understanding what drives your business's value can help you make better decisions today.

03 / PREPARE
◇

Plan Your Exit

Whether your timeline is months or years, thoughtful preparation can help you build a stronger business and make your eventual transition smoother.

INSIGHTS FOR BUSINESS OWNERS

How much is your business worth?

Understanding business value is useful long before you're ready to sell. Explore what influences value, how buyers assess businesses, and why a valuation involves more than a simple multiple.

Business is personal.
So is my approach.

I'm John Pieper, a business acquisitions and exits advisor affiliated with Springfield Strategies.

After building a senior home care company from the ground up, growing it to more than 80 employees, and selling it in 2023, I moved into business brokerage with a perspective shaped by firsthand experience.

I enjoy helping owners understand the process, think through their options, and approach their next chapter with confidence.
