Professional References

Tod and the Transition360 team are an outstanding resource for business decision-makers. They are some of the best connected people in the area. When I need advice, I ask Tod as he is one of the few I know that has the depth of experience to give immediately useful advice. He has helped his firm become one of the best businesses in the region.

Tod is a consummate professional that is deeply respected throughout the market. He leads with intense integrity and is someone you need to know if you want to integrate into the Northwest market.

I have worked with Dan and Bill on several client transactions over the last few years and I have considered my work with them a true collaboration with the clients’ best interests in mind. They have not only a breadth of knowledge to handle the multiple issues presented by often complicated business strategic and succession plans, but also the ability to consider the personal dynamics inherently involved for the business owner, his or her family, and the employees when appropriate. It has been my pleasure working along side them and I have felt every time that the client benefited from their representation.

Tod brings sincerity, strong business acumen and genuine passion for helping executives to achieve and expand their potential. His firm’s peer roundtables materially improve each member’s ability to develop clear, actionable strategies and execute efficiently against them. In addition, his passion, background and intelligence qualify him very well to coach executives to increase performance in a one on one setting. Tod is an outstanding individual, and it is my pleasure to be able to work with him.

The team at Transition 360 bring an effective strategy and process for buying or selling a business that is unparalleled in his industry. His past experience, business approach, and genuine interest in developing a win-win strategy for the business and the owner is impressive to say the least. I would recommend any business owner who is within 5 years of selling their business to meet Tod, and experience how he can help evolve the business into an organization that is demanded by buyers, and successfully transitioned.

Dan Stone brings a lot to the table for business owners. He has a wealth of experience in understanding the true value of a business and how to build an effective strategy for buying or selling it. Working with mutual clients, I have noted his genuine interest in developing a win-win strategy for the future of the business and the owner as he/she transitions out. I would recommend any business owner who is within 5 years of selling their business or in need of a quality business valuation to meet with Dan and his team at Transition360.

As a busy practitioner in the field of mergers and acquisitions as well as in my role as closing agent in the sale of business opportunities, I have worked closely with a large number of business brokers and acquisition specialists over the years and give the team at Transition360 my highest accolades and recommendation. They are simply the best in the business: Whip-smart and witty, diligent and detailed, uncompromising and creative. They make things happen that no other broker can and their success rate is recognized not only by their own selling clients, but often by the purchasing side of the transaction who in turn choose Transition 360 when it comes time to sell the business they purchased years before!

It’s a pleasure to recommend Tod as one of the finest business development professionals in the region. In addition, he provides value above the role he serves in, looking to bring the best out in others in the team around him.

Tod has the leadership and integrity that you can count on in any organization. He thoughtfully considers the challenges put in front of him and brings the necessary resources to the table. It has been a pleasure working with him.
