“I had a very pleasant experience with Shawn Ko and Amit Wadhera. From my transaction I am convinced they are the perfect team. They sold my first business that I poured my heart and soul into over the years, FAST and while getting me a fair and profitable price.These two took the headache out of the process and always communicated with me and remained very professional. I highly recommend these two well versed, educated, attentive, and professional agents if you are looking to sell your business.“

“Amit Wadhera has been such an amazing individual to work with! From start to end, he was there for every question I had. I was very happy to have worked with him and most likely will be moving forward with Amit for all new business deals.“

“Just finished closing my deal as a seller. If you need a Good Agent that’s on your side and protects your best interest please give Amit Wadhera a try first. Very knowledgeable, professional and well connected in the market with lots of potential buyers. You will not be disappointed. I can honestly say he stood out from the other agents I had in mind when I decided to hire him. Thank you Amit “

“In November 2019, I listed my medical billing company with Sean Seaman and FCBB, with the closing taking place in May 2020. This was a clean and productive process, despite the fact that it took place during the most difficult part of the COVID pandemic. Sean acted very professionally, always guiding me through the many details that such a transaction requires. When disagreements arose, as they always do, he was instrumental in bridging the difference between the buyer and I. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Sean and FCBB with a clear conscience.  “

“I reached out to FCBB out of curiosity to see how much is my business worth. I spoke to Sean Seaman. He explained to me the process, he prepared the valuation and said he has a buyer that is interested in my business. Well it turned out he was very serious. He knew exactly how to price it. He explained how he came up with the numbers and what are the next steps we need to take. He introduced me to the buyer via a phone call. He was very professional. Extremely patient. Very knowledgeable. He obviously handled many sales transactions. We closed escrow 2 months after signing the listing agreement. It takes longer to close a deal on a residential sale… unbelievable!!! The buyer decided they want a stock sale instead of an asset sale. I had no idea what that was. Sean explained to me the pros and cons and walked me through the day to day concerns. I had a million questions and he helped me navigate through the challenges. After we closed escrow, he continued to help me with collecting funds from buyer. Clear any misunderstanding between me and the buyer. Selling your business is like giving away your baby. You want to let go but not really. So at times it’s difficult and you do need a pro that will be there for you that has lots of experience to put you at ease and can speak to both sides. You have to be open minded and trust your agent. I felt that Sean was fair in his dealings to both sides. When I asked for something not realistic he explained to me how things are… I highly recommend Sean Seaman in the sale of your business.“

“It was a pleasure working with Amit Wadhera. He is very knowledgeable and very proficient in what he does. During the whole process of selling my business I found him very dedicated and committed. He has done a wonderful job. “

“Amit Wadhera is absolutely the most uniquely gifted business consultant that I have ever met. He is a truly genuine person with a great deal of integrity. He is professional, knowledgeable, and has a great understanding of business. He is a true example of what support really looks like and his impact has moved me forward. I am so thankful for the time and attention he dedicated to move me ahead. I would highly recommend Amit Wadhera to anyone who wants to get strategic advice to make an impact in their life.   “

“Amit is a pleasure to work with, he is a dynamic and engaging public speaker. Amit is equally engaging during his one to one consulting engagements. He possesses a rare ability to quickly assess his client’s needs. He is able to make strategic recommendations, as well as very specific suggestions to make immediate impacts. When I need strategic B-to-B advice and consultation, Amit is one of the first people I call!” He was very detailed and through in explaining us everything about the business. We liked his strategic way of planning and execution. Amit is one of the very best business sales consultants available. He gave us great counsel that is already helping us in our business. His process was streamlined and very organized. He was a great listener and was open to answering all our questions. He has a great understanding of the business, he was able to provide us great insight on his experience. Amit’s expertise and knowledge of business helped us make critical decisions. His consulting proved to be absolutely accurate for us. We are really looking forward to work with him in the future again.“

“I have nothing but great things to say about you.  You have been a great help to me and my family with finding our business.  Right off the bat you have been a very honest, kind and patient person, which helped me feel safe working with you. Throughout our search for a business, you put a lot of work into finding me plenty of options and potential business investments while staying very patient with us.  When we decided to continue looking for businesses, you made sure I understood everything I was getting myself into which allowed for me to be readily prepared for whatever came ahead. And you didn't stop after I bought the pizza shop; you continued to come in and check up on how I felt about my purchase.  I will definitely be working and continuing my good relationship with you for future business purchases or sales. Thank you again for the effort and honesty!“

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Sean Seaman and Dustin Sigall during the process of selling my business. With Sean and Dustin as my brokers, I was able to concentrate on running my business as they saved me countless hours of time and undue stress. Selling a business during a pandemic was surprisingly seamless with their invaluable services. From beginning to end of the sale process, Sean and Dustin offered a welcome peace of mind. Their knowledge and attention to detail were key contributors to my successful sale. Throughout the course of selling my business, Sean and Dustin were always quick to respond to any of my questions and concerns. They navigated a very complex transfer of ownership with my franchisor. Additionally, they helped keep the deal confidential, which was much appreciated as it allowed me to tell my employees and colleagues at the right time. I was glad to work with Sean and Dustin throughout the entire sale process, as they easily overcame the many obstacles that we encountered on the way to completing the sale. I highly recommend Sean and Dustin if you are selling your business, they are the types of brokers that anyone would be happy to work with. “

“Thank you so much for all your help during the sale of my medical billing business. I was truly blessed to be introduced to you back in 2016, but wasn't quite ready to sell at the time. Patiently you checked in with me every year until the timing was right for me and my family. Through all of your patience, knowledge and kindness I experienced beyond exceptional service. I wish everyone could have the support from a broker that I experienced from you. I truly love my business and staff and wanted the best person possible to take it over, which you were able to find for me. Now I can start a new chapter of enjoying the rewards from all of my hard work over the years. Words can't fully describe what professional and kind gentlemen you are. I am confident that you will be a blessing to many others. I was VERY lucky to have you in my life during a very stressful time. “

“I had an excellent experience selling my business through Todd Bell and First Choice Business Brokers. The selling process was easy to understand due to good communication. Todd did research on the industry and cared about my concerns for the business and my future.“

“I recently purchased a business and am most appreciative of Todd Bell. I was well informed through ongoing communication and all the questions that I had were answered in a timely fashion. I would use Todd and First Choice Business Brokers in the future should I decide to sell my current business or purchase another one.“

“From my first contact, I found Todd to be very professional, knowledgeable, and engaging. He has a unique ability to explain complex concepts in a clear understandable manner. This was my first time selling a medical practice, it was important that I trust my broker. I trusted Todd and always felt he was looking out for my best interest. He was very responsive to my calls and questions. Todd made the process understandable and manageable. I felt comfortable in sharing all of my needs and concerns with Todd, who did an outstanding job of negotiating them with potential buyers. Todd was always positive and encouraging, even when potential sales fell through. I found Todd to be open, honest and hard working. I would recommend him highly.“

“I had an overwhelmingly positive experience with First Choice Business Brokers and Todd Bell. I found him to be honest, knowledgeable, and attentive to the needs of both buyer and seller. By setting realistic expectations and using his expertise in business brokerage, Todd brings incredible value; facilitating successful transactions which maximize value for sellers, while simultaneously setting up a buyer for long-term success. Having the unique experience of working with Todd and First Choice, I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone who is seriously considering selling a business.“

“Thank you so much for patiently working with me to find the right business. As a first-time buyer, the entire process went smoothly. I was well informed with ongoing communication and all the questions I had were answered in a timely fashion. I would absolutely use Todd Bell of First Choice Business Brokers in the future should I decide to sell my current business or purchase another one.“

“As a business owner, I know the passion and work ethic required to run a successful business. Then I met Todd Bell of First Choice Business Brokers. Todd was by far the most positive and committed of the many business brokers I consulted with when listing my business for sale. His integrity and professionalism were top-notch and his representation in the sale of my business was invaluable. In the world we live in today that is worth its weight in gold.“

“Todd, Jen and I sincerely thank you for all the hard work and diligent effort you put into helping us sell our business. We couldn't have done it without you and we appreciate you so much!“

“I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all the hard work and effort that Todd Bell put into selling my business. His professionalism and experience were very apparent and the net result was finding an excellent, qualified buyer. I am extremely pleased with his services and would highly recommend him and First Choice Business Brokers to anyone looking to sell their business.“

“Todd was a consummate professional all the way through the purchase of our business. It seemed like no matter what complication came up, he was there to help guide us. There's no way we could have bought this business without him on our side.“

“It was a pleasure listing my Board and Care as well as my property with Todd Bell at First Choice Business Brokers. Within two weeks, there were multiple potential buyers who were qualified financially to purchase. Todd communicated quickly and efficiently and found the buyer that was not only qualified, but who also had an affinity for Seniors. When issues arose, Todd's patience and experience made the sale go through. I have tried other brokers and have never experienced the quality of buyers that I did working with Todd. I am highly recommending him to my friends in the industry who are interested in selling their businesses.“

“The best decision I made when selling my business was to list it with First Choice. From the very beginning to after the sale of my business, Sean Seaman and his team at First Choice were extremely helpful and insightful. I leaned heavily on the advice and guidance that Sean gave me and I was glad that I did. His knowledge and understanding of the landscape was so valuable to me and facilitated a very quick and profitable sale. I know that when the time comes to sell another business First Choice will be my broker.“

“When you receive good service from a Company, you rarely feel obligated to write a thank you letter. On the other hand, when the Company goes the extra mile and provides a superior service, there is no way that you can dismiss this urge of sitting down, and giving them the proper credit they deserve. The outstanding and professional services that Chris Seaman and his team have demonstrated in this Business transaction is beyond what we call "good customer services". This Business Broker had done everything possible, in a fair-and-square manner, to avoid any mistakes or delays to help in completing the transaction. Chris Seaman and his team are a great asset to the business community of San Diego. Without any doubt in my mind, they have surely set a higher standard of excellence that others will have to strive to compete against. Thank you and congratulations on a job well done!“

“Hi Chris, Thank you again for all of your help purchasing ColorTechs! You and your team did a great job of educating Evencia & I with the entire process. The escrow company that you chose also made the paperwork signing and the legal documentation gathering as easy as possible. I would recommend First Choice to any of my friends who are looking to buy or sell a business.“

“Chris Seaman and the team at First Choice did an excellent job in all areas of my business purchase. They made sure I had all of the necessary information and that I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. The First Choice Team is very professional and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in selling or buying a business.“

“Dear Chris, When I decided to sell my business, I jokingly mentioned that I needed a broker that can "Sell ice cubes to Eskimos". Well you did it! Despite all the obstacles due to unforeseen circumstances, you found a buyer. You appropriately named your company First Choice. You did an amazing job.“

“Hi Chris, Thank you very much for all of your help to close the deal in a timely manner. All of your services were very professional starting from day one to the close of escrow. I will not hesitate to let my friends to avail your services whenever they are in the market for buying or selling a business. Once again thank you very much for all your help.“

“Chris, Thank you so much for all your assistance selling my business, POWAY SMOG. I will highly recommend anyone interested in a business sale, or purchase, to come to you in the future. You explained, in detail, how the business was valued: a very precise, step-by-step analysis. It gave me the confidence that I was getting full, fair value. And also for the buyer that they were buying a business that was fully vetted and knew what they were paying me all that money for. Your finding multiple qualified buyers also put me in the enviable position of having a choice of qualified buyers to ensure I received the best overall deal. I also appreciated your experience putting the deal together. You fully explained all steps of the process so that I felt comfortable with every step along the way. I even appreciated the escrow company you work with. Very experienced in business transactions. Every detail was taken care of to ensure all the legalities were covered. Once again, thanks! FIRST CHOICE will definitely be my "first choice" for any buy or sell in the business arena. If you ever have a client that wishes to contact me personally, please feel free to call.“

“Chris Seaman assisted me in purchasing my current business, Emory Plumbing. Chris was extremely thorough and efficient during the process and answered any questions or concerns that I had. Because of his professional manner in handling this purchase, I have come to trust him with other business dealings. I am currently listing my night club with him. His diligent work ethics and professionalism is outstanding and I feel he will give his best effort in selling the night club. If you are looking to sell or purchase a business I highly recommend Chris Seaman.“

“It was a pleasure to work with Chris during our purchase of White Light Studio. Chris provided a detailed valuation which included reference data from similar purchases to give us the confidence to go forward with the transaction. Chris continued to offer us advice throughout the process and was available at all times to discuss situations that arose. His calm and professional demeanor helps alleviate stress that built up and we felt that Chris provided honest assessments when faced with go no go decisions. We would highly recommend Chris for any business purchase. David and May Garrett, 2013 Chris Seaman made the entire process of selling my business stress-free. He is extremely thorough and follows through with everything he says. He was able to sell my business much faster than I had anticipated. I appreciate that he is an honest broker and makes sure that my questions and concerns as the owner are answered. I have dealt with other business brokers before, and compared to them, Chris is the most attentive and honest one I’ve worked with. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to sell or buy a business.“

“I am very glad I had Chris Seaman as our business broker to sell our business. He promptly responded to my phone calls and emails. He made the entire process of selling my business easy and fast, from material preparation, appointment setting up, interview, negotiation to closing. He is honest and experienced. He is always on time. I really appreciated his service and recommend him to anyone to sell or buy a business.“

“I worked with Sean and Dustin to sell my business. It was an excellent experience. They did not rush through the financial statements but helped me to accurately reflect my business and its earnings. They took their time to go through all facets of selling the business, always maintained confidentiality and diligently worked to find a financially qualified buyer. Within a couple months they produced a very well qualified buyer. From that point forward they helped negotiate the price, terms and really helped both parties overcome the small problems most deals encounter. Both of them were polite, professional and got the job done. I sincerely believe the price I sold the business for would have been much less without the proper preparation and advice Dustin and Sean guided me with. I would use them again in a heartbeat and would recommend them to anyone who is considering the potential sale of their business.“

“One of the best decisions I made when I determined that it was time to sell my business was to choose Chris Seaman at First Choice Business Brokers of San Diego to assist me. Chris worked side by side with me in valuing my business and always made me feel like my concerns and questions were respected and heard. We listed my business on a Friday and had an offer on the following Monday! Chris is professional, experienced, realistic and has a calming presence when things get hectic. He guided me throughout the entire process and earned my trust quickly. I recommend him and First Choice Business Brokers highly.“

“Hi Patrick, I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your professionalism and patience with us during the entire process. It was a scary and exciting time for us as first time business owners. But you helped us thru the process by answering our questions and providing us with valuable insight. Your prompt and caring attention to our needs was greatly appreciated. Thanks again for everything and we look forward to working with you again in the near future. Take care.“

“Mark and Dylan, I wanted to send you this note thanking you for selling my business, Kardia Fitness. I have to admit there was so much more involved than I ever anticipated. Thank you again for guiding me away from the first buyer. He would have been very difficult to work with and the conditions he was asking for were just not acceptable. Mark came in at a very fair price and he has been very easy to work with. I will highly recommend you to anyone I come across who may be selling their business. I'm sure you will give them the same great service and guidance you provided me.“

“Dylan, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have just been incredible. I don’t know how we could have sold our business without you. You have been a professional, a gentleman, and a very caring broker. I am glad that we had you to make this a smooth transaction. Thank you so much."“

“Sean and Dustin at First Choice Business Brokers delivered on their promise to connect me with a large number of qualified buyers and simplify the process of the sale. The team at FCBB turned a very complex transaction into a simple, professional and valuable outcome for all parties.“

“Chris, Thank you so much for all your help in the selling of my business. It was a real pleasure working with you, and knowing that if ever I needed to talk with you, you were always available. I would gladly recommend you to anyone who either wanted to buy or sell a business.“

“I can't thank First Choice Business Brokers enough. FCBB had continued faith in the sale of our business and helped us make it happen with the right buyer. Patrick Marsch. is a great broker, and really made us comfortable with our decisions. I wouldn't change our experience for anything. Really, Patrick, thank you so much for your patience and resilience is getting this done. We are very happy with the end product and the perfect buyer!“

“When I decided to sell my business, I contacted several brokers. From the beginning, Sean and Dustin stood out. They were so knowledgeable and prompt in responding to any phone calls or emails. With their help, I was able to reach an appropriate asking price for my medical billing company, which was higher than what I expected. In a very short time, they found the perfect buyer for my business. The process happened exactly as they stated it would. I am amazed how quick and smooth it all happened. It really is like a dream come true. I would highly recommend Sean and Dustin at First Choice Business Brokers.“

“Selling a business is unlike any other exercise one might try. It is emotional, at times confusing, and often occurs slower than optimal pace. As a hunter and fisherman, I liken it to a long trek through a forest or diving in unknown waters. Such a journey can be perilous without a proper guide who knows the lay of the land, has good judgment and knows how to communicate. I recently sold my dietary supplement business with First Choice. My experience with the broker was exceptional; she was the perfect proverbial guide. She found several interested parties, helped both sides understand the needs and wants of the other, clarified confusion and took the deal across the finish line. I would recommend their services to anybody thinking of selling their business.“

“When we originally bought our business “Four Seasons Candy Company”, we didn’t use a business broker. Needless to say, that was a costly mistake. So when we decided to sell our business, for sure, we were going to use a business broker even with the commissions. Finding a good business broker is as important as finding a buyer. This time we were lucky because we found Patrick Marsch with “First Choice Business Brokers”. Thanks to Patrick, we found the right buyer for our business. As a team player, Patrick assisted us with a precise, step-by-step analysis that provided us with the confidence that we were offering our business at a full and fair value. Equally important, with patience and resilience, Patrick found us numerous potential buyers and helped us identify the most qualified buyer. With this precise, step-by-step analysis we felt comfortable that the buyer received the best overall deal. If we should ever buy another business or if any of our family or friends should decide to buy or sell a business, we would, without hesitation recommend Mr. Patrick Marsch Jr. with First Choice Business Brokers.“

“I had listed my business for sale with another broker for six months that was hard working and professional but produced only unqualified buyers. I contacted Sean and Dustin at First Choice Business Brokers and what a difference! Sean and Dustin took the right approach that marketed my business correctly from the start. They found a qualified buyer within days from a resource of buyer contacts that they had on file. I received the price that I wanted and the process from start to finish was very quick and smooth. They were always available within a short period of time to answer my questions and coach me through completion. I would highly recommend Sean and Dustin to anyone looking to sell their business. Thanks again Sean and Dustin. I am sure you will have continuous success with your knowledge, confidence, and professionalism.“

“It was a great pleasure to work with 1st Choice Business Brokers. Sean and Dustin are professional, knowledgeable and kind. I cannot say enough good things about Sean Seaman. He is professional, thorough and very patient with all questions, taking time to explain the entire business buying process from start to finish. He always picks up his phone and follows through with his word. My spouse and I wanted to buy a business but it was already in contract. It fell out of escrow and he informed us immediately to see if we were still interested and we are so grateful he did. His expertise and ability to act swiftly sealed the deal for us. He is also very honest and has the helpful talent of seeing both sides objectively. We are very thankful to have found him and look forward to working with him again. Highly recommend! Thank you kindly, Sean and team!“

“We recently purchased a small business that was brokered by Dustin and Sean. Although Dustin’s original relationship was with the Seller, he did a great of representing both parties in the transaction. They were responsive to our many questions and phone calls. I most of all appreciated the time they took to meet with us and the Seller to bring all of us closer to an agreement. They were very patient and creative in helping us develop good provisions for the transfer and transition of the business.“

“I recently purchased a very good business utilizing the services of Chris Seaman, who was exemplary. He wasn't the things that people hate about sales people – pushy, aggressive, and fake. He wasn't in my face, he didn't constantly call me to push the business, he didn't oversell the idea. He was the things that good sales people are – a great listener, patient, providing information that was needed to make decisions. He volunteered information that he thought I would need, but was not intrusive. From the first day I heard about the business to the day we closed was approximately three months, which is a pretty condensed timeframe for a business transaction. Chris was entirely professional during the entire process, referred me to valuable sources that helped the transaction proceed in a timely fashion, engineered and oversaw the whole documentation gathering and dissemination procedure, and was generally the invisible hand that guided the transaction to its comfortable conclusion. I highly recommend Chris Seaman, and when I go to sell my business, he is the first person I intend to call.“

“Chris and the team at First Choice, Thank you for finding a buyer for our business in a timely manner. From the start, you were professional and knowledgeable with the process. With your massive advertising power, we had interested buyers the first week. You only introduced us to qualified buyers and attended every meeting when we met after hours, hearing our story and answering questions to all parties. You made yourself available anytime day or night. Communication was excellent! You matched us with the perfect buyer to take over our small business. We are thrilled with your services! Thank you!“

“Hi Chris, Just a little note to say thank you for listing and selling my business. How happy I am to have found you. You worked diligently and with great professionalism. You made yourself available at all times and your hard work and patience paid off. You did for me what three other experienced brokers couldn't do and I wish I had found you sooner. I will be recommending your company to my friends and family. Thanks again, wishing you all the best for the future.“

“The Mind Masters Star Award for Focus, awarded to Maggie Pound I have worked with Maggie Pound as she has worn many hats over the years. In 2015 she made a commitment to one thing that has kept her focused like never before. She is dedicated to matching businesses with the right sellers and buyers. She is a connector and realized this was her way of strengthening the business community.

She found her calling and is doing it her way! Barbara Eldridge, Founder, Mind Masters: an organization for supporting business owners that encourages, challenges and stimulates business development, financial growth and personal and professional change. I am so pleased that I had Ricardo Gomez representing me to sell my business, Silver Dollar Cocktail Lounge. He is one of the best agents I have ever had the pleasure to know. Very informative, he kept me aware of what he was doing on my behalf in selling the business. I am most grateful for his help.“

“I have to hand it to you Chris, your follow through and tenacity certainly paid off in the arrangement you brokered between myself and the buyer of my business. Your insight and experience showed in the advice you were able to give us both. As with any business sale there are numerous details that have to be negotiated to keep them from becoming roadblocks to what otherwise would be a good deal to both parties. I appreciate the professionalism and care that you exercised in handling each detail as it arose. A job well done Chris, thank you.“
