I have worked with Scott Perry on several business acquisition transactions and he has always provided sound advice to both buyers and sellers, working diligently to solve problems. I would not hesitate to recommend Scott to potential clients.

As a business broker and a business consultant, Michelle Dunn takes the “Grammy” if there were one! Working with Michelle as I considered the sale of my company up to accepting an offer, I have found Michelle to be highly professional and of utmost integrity. Michelle communicated with me on a regular basis, educated me, maintained confidentiality, and above all she has continued to coach and educate me after the sale of my company. There is not a better business broker in the industry.

Hi Scott & Margaret,

I just wanted to thank you both for all your help in selling our school. This was our baby for such a long time, and now that it is 24 years old, it’s time to say goodbye. Thanks for helping to make it a good experience and as painless as possible. It is definitely bittersweet.

Cheryl and the Gateway team put out the best diligence packages for M&A I have seen. It is a facet that sets them apart.
