TJ Bunday - Broker & Franchise Resales

Introduction

Brooks Pointe Corporation is a boutique mergers and acquisitions advisory and business brokerage firm representing privately held companies across the United States. Since 2016, we’ve helped business owners nationwide navigate one of the most important financial and personal transitions of their lives: the sale, succession, or recapitalization of their company.

We exist for business owners who expect more than a listing service. Our clients value insight, confidentiality, and experienced guidance from a partner who understands the real work it takes to build and eventually exit a successful business. Brooks Pointe blends the rigor of an investment banking process with the personal attention of a relationship-centered advisory model—bringing the best of both worlds to every engagement.

Our Philosophy

Selling a business is not just a transaction—it’s the transition of leadership, history, identity, and years of effort. Every engagement receives the respect and sensitivity it deserves.

Our approach is built on:

Clarity — clear guidance, honest conversations, and data-based understanding of value
Confidentiality — disciplined screening, secure document handling, and controlled disclosure
Confidence — preparation and strategy that position the business for the strongest possible outcome

We take the time to understand the human side of each owner’s goals: financial, emotional, and practical. That combination of empathy and execution defines the Brooks Pointe experience.

Our Distinction

Brooks Pointe stands apart from traditional brokers by operating with institutional-grade process while staying accessible and practical for real business owners.

We intentionally accept a limited number of engagements at a time to ensure hands-on leadership involvement and full attention. Our advisors are former owners and operators who’ve experienced the realities of payroll, hiring, liability, risk, expansion, and sacrifice. We understand the decisions behind the numbers.

We apply:

professional financial analysis

buyer-targeting strategies

confidential marketing

disciplined negotiations

structured due diligence

All without the bureaucracy or inflated fee structure often associated with larger institutional firms.

Our Culture

We operate with preparation, precision, and accountability. Success is engineered—through planning, documentation, and communication.

We ask the tough questions early, forecast obstacles before they arise, and manage discussions in a way that keeps negotiations objective and constructive. We measure success not just by dollars at closing, but by the confidence and satisfaction of the owner.

Our Reputation

Our closing ratio exceeds industry averages because we rely on preparation and quality—not volume. Many engagements come from referrals: CPAs, attorneys, financial advisors, and past clients who know how we operate.

We’ve successfully guided business owners through clean single-entity sales, franchise transfers, partner buyouts, multi-location divestitures, and multi-entity sell-side transactions.

Our Vision

We believe business owners across America deserve high-quality advisory representation without losing personal connection or being treated like a number in a deal pipeline.

We’re continually expanding our digital infrastructure, data insights, valuation tools, and national buyer network to strengthen our capabilities and provide even greater results coast-to-coast.

A Message to Business Owners

Whether you’re ready to sell now—or simply seeking clarity on the value of your business and the timing of a future exit—we offer confidential guidance without obligation. We’ll help you understand your market position, potential valuation, and strategic options.

Your business is the result of years of work. Our role is to protect that investment, present it properly, and ensure you receive the value you’ve earned.
