About the Company

Peterson Acquisitions was founded out of a necessity to provide business owners the aggressive and competent effort it truly takes to sell a business. Anyone can slap a business for sale on the web, but that is not how businesses are sold. It takes much more than a creative ad to get a buyer and a seller to a deal. So what makes us different than the other brokers you may ask? Its simple--DRIVE, AMBITION, AND RESULTS.

We work tirelessly to match make for buyers and sellers. As a business owner, you spent your life building your business, it wasn't a part time deal for you to win as you have. We take the same approach with our work. We are dedicated and relentless to a process that ensures a victory for you, and the buyer.

When you are ready for REAL results, and a company that can match and more than likely exceed your level of work ethic, contact us.

Introduction

WHAT WE DO:
At 'The Deal Team', we believe we’re in the business of changing lives.

Our mission is simple: we help clients maximize their wealth, time, and freedom through smart business acquisitions. Backed by decades of entrepreneurial experience and powered by Peterson Acquisitions’ proven QSI™ (Quantum Stack Investing™) system, we deliver outcomes that go beyond transactions — helping clients achieve freedom, fulfillment, and long-term financial security.

WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE:
At 'The Deal Team', we don’t just list businesses — we engineer exits.
For the seller. The buyer. And the bank. So everyone wins.

Our 90% success rate isn’t luck. It’s the result of our proprietary QSI™ acquisition system and a specialized team where every player knows their role — and executes it with precision.

You don’t just get a broker. You get a strategist. A negotiator. A market analyst. A closer.
All working in sync. All focused on one thing: getting your deal done right.
No handoffs. No guesswork. No surprise fees.

From the first call, you’ll feel it — a clear, professional process run by people who’ve actually bought and sold businesses ourselves. We built the system we wish we had when we were in your shoes.

Our job? We’re Alchemists.
We transform what you’ve built into what you’ve earned — by aligning the right people, process, price, and timing.

Most clients describe our first meeting in one word: “Refreshing.”

Because clarity builds confidence. And confidence leads to certainty — the one thing you’ve been chasing since this all started.

Ready to stop guessing and start getting real answers? Reach out to The Deal Team today. Let’s get your deal done.
