Learn and Grow

We are continually reading books and periodicals that relate to business transition, business development and business sales. Among the many we have found helpful are those listed below. Each of the publications listed offers insights related to different stages of your business. Some relate more to those just trying to find their way, while others venture into the topic of preparing for a sale. If you have books not on this list that you feel we should consider adding, please send a note to John Howe. If we haven’t read it yet, we will take a look and consider adding it to our list. If you’d like to discuss things, drop a note via email or give us a call at one of our offices. We love to talk about business.

What our clients are saying...

“What a great experience it was to work with John Howe, who sold my business in May 2012. A year prior, his thorough analysis of the business pointed out ways to increase annual revenue. Because of this, I made changes that immediately increased revenue, substantially increasing the value of the business. John then found the right buyer and coordinated a seamless transition—he doesn’t miss a single detail. He provides excellent business consultation, is highly organized, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend John to anyone who is looking to sell their business or simply improve the bottom line.”
