Buy or Sell a Business

Hi, my name is Garrett Gosselink, Chief Executive Member of Kenyon Business Strategists, and I want to buy your business.

I can be the safe, trusted pair of hands you are looking for to safeguard your legacy and shepherd your business, your customers, and your valuable employees.

I am looking to acquire businesses with annual revenues in the range of $500k to $5 million. I am willing to look at larger businesses (up to $20 million) if the situation is right.

I am somewhat agnostic in regards to the sector or industry, and I am especially interested in buying:

  • Management consulting & software consulting firms.
  • Professional firms – law, accounting, medical, financial services practices; insurance agencies.
  • Property Management companies and/or real estate brokerages.
  • Transportation and trucking firms.
  • Sports teams, and sports-related businesses.
  • Manufacturers related to the automotive industry.

Even if your business is not in the above six sectors, I am open to considering any business that meets the revenue targets above, is profitable, and has been in business for at least three years.

I am based in the Chicago, Illinois area and am open to purchase businesses in the following geographic areas:

  • Within the Chicago area
  • Within a 200-mile radius of Chicago, in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
  • Metro areas within a 2-hour plane flight of Chicago – Midwest, Plains states (Central time zone), South except Florida, East except New England.

I am not a business broker. I am a professional investor. I am looking to purchase 1 to 3 businesses a year for the next 10 years. I can assure you I am not a “tire kicker” – I have the financial capacity and the overwhelming desire to make a purchase.

I have worked in management consulting, insurance and financial services, and sports broadcasting over a dynamic 25+-year career. I have had exposure to and consulted with the executives of hundreds of businesses over the years, picking their brains about what works and what doesn’t. I can be the safe, trusted pair of hands you are looking for to safeguard your legacy and shepherd your business, your customers, and your valuable employees.
