Many business buyers start their search with very broad acquisition criteria, focused solely on numerical performance measurements (i.e. cash flow of at least $300k, no more than 10 employees, etc.).  Codiligent is an Oregon business broker that understands that a buyer will have more success if a search is more targeted.  If you are a buyer who retains Codiligent to provide active business acquisition representation, you will go through interviews and complete questionnaires that will ensure that Codiligent develops a comprehensive understanding of your interests, aptitudes, goals, and acquisition criteria.  When Codiligent develops a more thorough understanding of you and your goals, it can conduct a far more rigorous and targeted search, which will increase the likelihood of finding a business that truly meets your objectives while decreasing time devoted to inappropriate matches.
