Background/Experience: Mickey Belt has historically helped his clients achieve their goals by providing accurate and complete information without compromise or substitution regarding the facts surrounding a business transaction.
Mickey served successfully as President / Owner of a large Transportation Company for thirty (30) years and started a Document Storage and Document Destruction Business as a separate entity for twelve years in conjunction with the Transportation Business. Lessons learned from his years of being in business have proven to be the best training an entrepreneur can have. After successfully marketing his business to a top Fortune 50 Company, he decided to sell his business entity in 2007 to a smaller but rapidly expanding Company which he felt would better serve his clients. The ability to understand how to build a company from the ground up, the countless hours of planning and implementation, successes and failures, personal and finance issues helps to fully understand what a business owner is faced with on a daily basis, and what it takes to bring Buyer and Seller together for a successful transaction.
Mickey has the unique ability to listen to his clients and learn what their motivation is for selling or buying a business and when he fully understands a client’s wishes, he is able to put together a comprehensive package that benefits both parties of a transaction.
Reviewing a business for sale or purchase requires an individual that will put in the time and effort it takes to fully evaluate the true picture of a companies worth.
Mickey looks forward to personally meeting with you to understand your goals and help make them a reality. Mickey can be reached at (818) 468-4189 or mickey@business-team.com.
