When people ask why we chose the name Rapt we tell them that it personifies our motto. We are intense and provide personal attention to each of our engagements. We focus on your interests and work to achieve the best outcome for you. Our engagements are not “just business” to us, they’re personal and we make a total commitment to assure the best outcome for you.
Rapt appreciates that no one knows your business as well as you and we won’t insult you by making promises that can’t be kept. Instead we will provide you with honest, competent, and experienced counsel. We have a proven track record to work diligently to sell our client’s business in the shortest amount of time and at the very best price the marketplace can deliver.
Since Rapt is still intimately involved in commercial finance, we bring a unique talent to the process of selling your business. We can realistically value the deal from a lenders viewpoint to help you determine the proper selling price and to arrange financing for the buyer. We have completely funded many deals, with the seller providing little, if any financing!
As business consultants we have negotiated buy-sell agreements, helped business owners to operate more effectively and improved the company’s bottom line.
To us your business is our business…… and our business is personal to us…… it’s not just business.
