From January 2022, my wife and I had the pleasure of working with Doug Batts, the gentleman who was instrumental in securing a buyer for our business, a point-of-sale company specializing in sales, service and consulting located in Grand Prairie, Texas. Although the company was struggling with debt in spite of having a successful 20-year business, Doug brought several offers to us and spent many hours to find a company willing to take the final step. In January 2025, the purchase was finalized.
While working with Doug, we had three due diligence exercises, each of which was complex but enlightening. Doug guided us through each step of the process and we believe that without his talent to keep us in line and encouraged, we would not have had the desired outcome.
There was something about Doug that was different from other brokers. Whenever he gave us advice, we felt it was given as if this were his personal business opportunity. Doug provided a level of comfort seldom seen in these situations and it’s been a pleasure working with him throughout this process.
Sincere Regards,
Reg & Sharon
