The Process
What Happens When You Get in Touch
No obligation at any stage. The process moves at your pace.
We start with a no-obligation conversation — by phone, email, or in person at your office or Richard's. Once we're aligned on next steps, I'll attach a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to protect your SPS information before anything confidential is shared.
I know you're busy, so I keep this stage as straightforward as possible. The NDA is standard and designed to protect you, not slow things down.

We'll meet at your office or Richard's to go through the appraisal together. Here's what we cover:
- Run through our appraised value of your business
- Present our findings and insights
- Suggest a strategy to market
- Explain our fee
- Answer all questions and ensure you understand the process

After the appraisal meeting, there's no obligation to proceed. You take the information away, discuss it with your advisers or family, and come back when you're ready. The process starts on your timeline — not ours.

I hope this explains the next few steps — always feel free to reach out with any questions at any point.
