About the Company
Cooperhawk Business Brokers was founded by Brian Aagaard with a straightforward philosophy: business owners deserve clear guidance, careful preparation, and experienced representation when it comes time to sell.
We advise owners throughout the business sale process, from valuation and preparation through confidential marketing, buyer qualification, negotiations, due diligence, and closing. Our approach is personal and hands-on, with an emphasis on protecting confidentiality, presenting each business accurately, and helping owners make informed decisions throughout the transaction.
Our Philosophy:
Every business has a different story, and every owner has different priorities. We take the time to understand both.
We help owners sell their business with careful preparation, straightforward advice, and experienced representation. We ask the right questions and identify the factors that influence value and marketability. When something needs attention, we address it. When there is value worth highlighting, we make sure buyers understand it.
We believe owners should understand what is happening, why it matters, and what comes next. Above all, we approach each engagement with care and respect for what the owner has spent years building.
