Business Brokers In Los Angeles, CA
Laurie Cole
Business Team, subsidiary of BTI Group Inc.
I specialize in helping business owners find qualified buyers when they are ready to sell. My other passion is helping companies grow by acquisition, whether horizontally or vertically. Business brokerage is a service that rewards sellers for their years of hard work and risk, while giving buyers a head start to success. My work strengthens the community by encouraging continuity and success of local business. I have a diverse background of experience that enables me to serve the business community in several ways: • My degree is in Business Administration and Accounting. I have years of accounting experience for publicly and privately held companies. • I was the administrator for a business litigation law firm for 16 years, an experience which exposed me to the wide variety of problems that can arise when companies transfer ownership and taught me how I could help small business owners prepare for a successful exit plan. • I am licensed real estate broker, with 10 years’ experience in residential real estate sales. The daily tools of real estate – evaluating the needs of buyers and sellers, marketing, negotiating, writing contracts, communicating with government agencies, solving problems to facilitate closing – have built a solid foundation for excellence in business sales, mergers, and acquisitions. The company that I work with – Business Team – is the largest business brokerage in the western United States. The company has sold over 7,000 businesses since 1981. I am pleased to say that I am the top producer in Southern California. It is an honor to provide my services to the residents of Orange County. My contact information Cell – 949.633.1612

Rolf Danryd
Griffin Business Brokers, Inc.
I decided to become a Business Broker in 2014 after a 40-year career in the food industry, where I held positions as President, General Manager, Vice President of Sales & Marketing and others. I was also a Counselor with SCORE for a time counselling small business owners. My goal was to help small Business Owners find Qualified Buyers for their businesses when they were ready to sell. I started as a Salesman with LINK Business LA which was part of an international network of Franchisees in the United States, New Zealand and Australia etc. At the time LINK was one, if not the, biggest brokerages in the world in terms of the value of businesses sold. I earned my Business Broker’s license in 2018 and became the Broker of Record for LINK Business LA with responsibility for supervising over 30 Salespersons. I have sold businesses in all kinds of industries such as Truck Stops, Print & Mail Centers, Car Wrapping Large Format Printing Companies, Bakery Coffee Shops, Comedy Clubs and more, and I do not have a particular specialization, The process is pretty much the same regardless of the type of business. I would love the opportunity to discuss your plans, as selling a business can be a lengthy process. It is also important to properly prepare a business for a sale because presenting the business to prospective buyers in the best light is important to receive the highest compensation possible, including your books and records.
