Testimonials


To Business Sellers,

My carpet cleaning business was kind of a personal service business which made it difficult to sell. Ian hung in there with me and we got it sold after about 8 weeks. Ian’s experience and advice where of an extreme help to me. I can not recommend his service highly enough.

Ian is the best.

In the business broker’s world of chaos, Ian is a breath of fresh air. I’ve been involved with dozens of potential transactions with other brokers and have found that most view the buying and selling of small businesses as a numbers game. Ian sees this world differently and plays the roles of matchmaker, coach, and therapist to perfection. Whether you are buying or selling, Ian takes the time to understand your needs and has the patience to guide both sides through the ups and downs of a deal. If you want someone who will do more than push process, Ian is definitely the choice!

Your knowledge and patience  were very helpful and greatly appreciated throughout this process. I would highly recommend you to anyone who is in need of a  Business Broker.

Thank you,

“Having never dealt with a business broker before, Ian was a pleasure to work.  I was very cautious and nervous about the whole process and Ian really took the time to go over every small detail with me before we got rolling.  Once he guided me through the listing process,  he was very proactive in keeping me updated on potential buyers and happenings that I should be aware of.  He knew the importance of making sure my retail shop ended up in good hands and sure enough… he succeeded.  Smooth from start to finish, I highly recommend using Ian as a business broker.”

“Ian knows how to get the job done and keep his clients happy in the process. You don’t
have to worry about calling him when you need something; chances are he will call you
first because he is always a step ahead. The best customer service.”

“My wife and I sold our long established restaurant. Ian made the process easy to
understand and walked us through everything. He made it easy on us.”

“Ian put together a great deal for me on a new location that was just what I was looking
for. He took care of everything including the lease negations. Very hands on, I strongly
recommend him ”

Abel Santillian , Santa Margherita Pizza


“Working with Ian was great. My wife and I had tried using other business brokers
before. These other brokers talked big at first but could never deliver even one offer.
When we started working with Ian he had people coming into our business after the first
few weeks. Within a few months we had multiple offers and were able to close a deal
from there.”

Through the deal closing process Ian was with us the entire way. He not only made sure
everything went smooth but really cared that both parties involved got a fair deal and
were able to make the transition smoothly. He was even available after the sale of the
business closed to help us with any questions we had.”
I would not even consider using anyone else to sell my business. You are in good hands
with Ian!

Working with Ian Lashley and Business Broker L.A. was a complete pleasure from beginning to end.

As the (former) owner of the number one maid and janitorial company in Los Angeles I have high standards and high expectations. Perfection at the top of the list. From our initial meeting where I set an aggressive schedule for my business to be sold, Ian performed at the top of the game. Not only did Ian sell my business quickly and efficiently, he closed escrow on the sale a month before my anticipated deadline.

I highly recommend Ian Lashley and Business Broker L.A. to anyone who is looking to sell their business.
