Sage Delsol

With over 15 years of experience as a multidisciplinary advisor and consultant, I specialize in M&A, business brokerage, commercial real estate acquisitions, capital markets, PropTech, and FinTech. My primary focus is on empowering business owners, principals, entrepreneurs, existing companies, and private investors to successfully acquire or dispose of assets—including businesses, goodwill, and real property—and to effectively source or secure funding and equity, whether through traditional or non-traditional means. Before embarking on my journey as a consultant, I co-founded a tech startup in the AdTech space, where I gained firsthand experience in the challenges and opportunities of growing a business from the ground up. My earlier career includes a significant tenure at the Wounded Warrior Project from 2007 to 2010, where I served in a senior-level Business Development and Alliances role during the organization's formative years. This diverse background has equipped me with a unique perspective on both the nonprofit and for-profit sectors. In addition to my professional expertise, I am a certified Wine Sommelier, which reflects my passion for the finer aspects of life and a commitment to continuous learning. As a proud US Veteran, I bring the discipline, leadership, and strategic thinking honed through my military service to every project and client I work with. Whether you're looking to navigate the complexities of a business transaction or seeking strategic advice on growth and investment, I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals with integrity and excellence.

I've been on your side of the table. Before I became a broker, I owned a construction company for five years. I made payroll, managed crews, chased bids, and navigated the grind that every business owner knows. I've also managed regional operations for LKQ Corporation — a publicly traded, Fortune-level enterprise in the automotive parts and salvage industry — where I learned how sophisticated buyers think, what they look for, and how deals get done at the highest level. That combination — owner experience plus corporate operations plus nearly a decade in real estate — is rare in this business. It means when you sit across from me, you're not talking to someone who read about your world in a textbook. You're talking to someone who's lived it. What I Do Differently There's no shortage of business brokers. Here's what separates my approach: One advisor, start to finish. You work directly with me — not an assistant, not a rotating team. I write your valuation, market your business, field buyer calls, and negotiate your deal personally. Institutional-grade valuations. I don't estimate your value — I build a defensible, data-driven analysis rooted in real market comparables and current buyer appetite. That number holds up through negotiation and due diligence. Capital Migration Strategy. Through the Hedgestone Global Network, I identify where investment capital is actively moving and position your business in front of it. Your ideal buyer may be in Dallas, Charleston, or Columbus. I find them. Real estate, handled. Licensed since 2016 in both residential and commercial real estate, I manage the property component of business transactions that most brokers hand off. Cleaner process. Fewer moving parts. Better outcomes. Absolute confidentiality. Your employees, customers, and competitors don't need to know you're exploring a sale. Every listing is airtight until you say otherwise. Zero upfront fees. I don't get paid until you do. Full alignment from day one. My Background Owner & Operator — Construction Company Regional Operations Management - Automotive Parts and Salvage Licensed Real Estate Professional since 2016 — Residential & Commercial Business Broker — Hedgestone Business Advisors Who I Work With I represent sellers and buyers across manufacturing, construction and trades, service businesses, healthcare, retail, and more — primarily across Ohio, West Virginia, Texas, and South Carolina, with national reach through the Hedgestone Global Network. Not ready yet? That's fine. The best time to know your business's value is before you need to sell it. A free, confidential valuation costs you nothing — and changes how you think about every decision you make going forward. Wherever you are in the process, the first conversation is always free.
