The March Group Ensures Confidentiality When Selling a Business

CORAL SPRINGS, Fla.--(Business Wire)--
The March Group, a leading private mergers and acquisitions advisory firm
specializing in the sale of middle-market companies, wants business owners to
know that we realize how important confidentiality is in all phases of selling
your company - before, during and after.

When a March Group executive visits a potential client, we take great care to
ensure that the meeting is held in the strictest confidence. Our representative
signs a nondisclosure agreement that guarantees your confidentiality whether we
continue to work together or not.

If the initial meeting is on your company premises, we see to it that the
employees do not know the reason for the visit. Our representative never talks
to any of your employees or asks to meet anyone other than you during the visit.

If you do not have a private area to meet at your business, we will arrange a
meeting off-site.

When we work together, we use only the confidential contact information you
provide us - your personal mobile phone and/or home phone numbers, your home
address and a personal e-mail address not related to your business.

Once we start marketing your business to potential buyers, our commitment to
confidentiality continues. Buyers, selected from a list you pre-approve, never
know your name or the name of your company until they sign a confidentiality
agreement.

The old saying, "Loose lips sink ships" holds true here. Employees, customers,
vendors, competitors, friends and associates should never know you are looking
to sell your business.

Word can travel fast if people think your company is for sale, and this news
could cause anxiety. Employees may panic, thinking they may lose their jobs.
Clients may get nervous; your bank may pull back on lending.

The March Group knows this, which is why we view confidentiality as key to a
successful sale.

The March Group never "shops" a company with price or terms. We let the dynamics
of a limited auction of multiple buyers drive the price up.
