Brian primarily focuses on increasing shareholder value across core business components like cash flow, risk management, operations, analysis, and planning, ensuring optimal exit strategies and identifying the best buyers to retain a companies ongoing operations and legacy.

Brian serves as a volunteer business mentor and treasurer for his regional SBA SCORE chapter, assisting small businesses with planning, launching, managing, and accelerating growth.

Selling or buying a business is a complex process that Brian has intimate experience with from both sides of the transaction. Having initially been on the buying side with Transworld, he joined their team as a Broker initially and after a year ultimately purchased his own territory for Canton because he appreciated their motto of "Good Deals, Good People." and the family-oriented approach while executing thousands of successful business transactions over a 40+ year span.
