Joe Pergolizzi Business Broker

Bio

I’ve been an entrepreneur for over 25 years. I founded 3 businesses, all bootstrapped, and exited each one of them. I’ve had a brick-and-mortar business, eCom business and built a food franchise to 400 franchises across 5 countries. I’ve worked with brands such as Airbnb and Burton. All told I’ve worked with over 1,000 entrepreneurs start, scale, exit and buy businesses. From first timers all the way up to Steve Jobs and his executive team. I have a real estate portfolio and invest in early-stage companies.

One of the keys of selling your business is to understand what the businesses strengths and weakness are – this will help you accentuate the value and strengthen the weaknesses. Also, spending a lot of time in creating outline of ways to scale the business because in essence this is what the buyer is buying. Lastly, be flexible, price is one thing but most of the time your exit will come together in the terms of the deal.

I absolutely love what I do every day. This is the pinnacle of the entrepreneurial journey in my career, helping create life changing moments for sellers and the exhilarating hunt for a buyer’s next big opportunity.

I’m a father first, avid outdoor recreationist doing “the typical” Colorado activities such as hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding.”  My art background influences everything from out of the box solutions to tending to my gardens and entertaining friends with my wood fired oven.
