Baton Reviews 77

I was referred to Baton by a trusted friend/colleague and I'm extremely grateful for it. I needed a valuation report for my business but was hesitant to spend thousands of dollars. Baton not only provided a valuation at no cost but also expedited the process upon my request. When I received the report, I had a discussion with Sam about the results. She offered insightful context on how their valuation team reached the final figure, all without any cost to me. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend the working with the team enough to sell your business! I was trying to sell my business by myself on another listing site without much success - we got a bunch of unqualified leads and it was more of a distraction than anything. The Baton team took over all of the aspects of selling the business from putting together spot-on marketing materials to closing the deal. It was great because I got to focus on continuing to operate my company and talking to extremely qualified buyers that they sourced from anywhere they could… it felt like they were all personally committed to my success. We ended up with three offers, Baton supported on the negotiations, and then even hand-held the buyer to qualify for financing. Now I'm on to my next chapter in life!

In the onset, Samantha was on the helm and provided responses instantly. It was a slightly bumpy ride when the process started due to miscommunication. Then onwards, once we exchanged the right data, the process was smooth. We got our desired reports per schedule and the experience was fantastic. For any future financial I will most likely return to Baton Market. Thank you.

I first tried to sell my business on my own and it was stressful to qualify prospects AND market the business + run daily operations. The professional help I needed was turning the sales process over to Baton to assess the ~100 prospects! and then keeping the communication between us timely and effective -whether it was as simple as calendaring talks with potential buyers or going deep into negotiations. I gave them a very short window of time to sell and I trusted their advice throughout the process (which is sometimes hard for people who run their own business!) They understood the added dynamic of being a franchise in an industry Baton hadn't worked in previously and together we managed it seamlessly.
Lastly, I appreciated the simplicity of the transaction with Baton and knowing exactly what to expect.

I was on the buy side. Baton represented the seller. The fact that I'm writing a review for the seller's representation should be a sure sign of truly outstanding service. I look at a lot of CIMS and data rooms. Baton made the process super easy, the data was actually there!, and it was well organized! I know the bar is fairly low with many business brokers even on these basics but I was impressed. As my deal progressed, the communications were timely, pleasant and professional. Even with a couple of hiccups (and what deal doesn't have hiccups), Baton was there to keep the momentum. Color me impressed.

Wish I knew about Baton Market sooner. I worked with Flippa to sell my last business, and the experience here has been so much better. As a serial entrepreneur, understanding what your business is worth is crucial to growth. Owners should feel empowered to not only know what their business is currently valued at but also understand what methods and analyses are necessary to assess fair market value without having to pay a significant price to learn this information. When I'm ready to sell, I know who I'll be using!"

I was very impressed with their transparency, and found Baton to be an absolute pleasure to work with. It really was as advertised, and while I am not currently interested in selling (and did not feel at all pressured to do so) I did inquire about their brokerage services, and pricing seems very fair!

Baton Market, and their team, are some of the best people I've worked with. They really understand what it means to get a business sold. They are excellent at managing the process and educating their customers through that process.

I recently received a business valuation for my company and was fairly impressed with both the customer service and experience I received at Baton. Sam spent 45 minutes explaining the valuation in great detail and answered all my questions in a friendly and professional manner.

What I appreciated the most was that this business valuation was completely free of charge. It allowed me to get a better understanding of my company's value without any upfront costs or commitments.

Overall, I highly recommend Baton for its excellent customer service and expertise in business valuation. They provided me with valuable insights that will help me make more informed decisions for my business in the future. Thank you!

As a newer construction company, we've struggled to secure financing due to our limited financial history. Baton took a look at our financials, gave us an in-depth valuation of our business for free, and told us that we should be able to secure financing due to our monthly revenues. Through the "Grow" arm of their business, their Head of Partnerships Mark was able to connect us with some financial firms that he felt would be a good fit for our funding needs. We were able to quickly secure a $60k true LOC that now gives us some flexibility when managing our cash flow. I would highly recommend working with the Baton team. Everything from onboarding to the Valuation Report delivery to the partner connection was an incredibly smooth/insightful experience and I didn't have to pay anything for their service or time. Great business and great people.

I'd been an owner of a business for a few years when I realized I don't even know what my company was worth. After a quick Google search, I found out I was most likely going to have to pay $3,000-$5,000 to get a valuation. Then comes Baton. They shared they could provide a valuation, completed by an actual CFA at NO COST (no calculator spitting out a random figure). Onboarding was simple and seamless. 2 weeks later I was able to connect with Sam and we went over my results. We've made a plan for me to return every 6-months to get an update to ensure we're on the right track!

Our experience with Baton was wonderful. Our company produces a cloud-based software application for a specific vertical niche. The valuation team brought extensive knowledge - supplemented with deep research to understand the particular intricacies of our industry. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Baton has my highest recommendation.

As I was selling my business and looking for a valuation service, I was skeptical about using Baton because I didn't know anything about the company. They offered the free valuation so I wanted to know what the catch was. Actually, there is no catch or obligation after they give the free valuation! They make their money by plugging you into a network of other professionals that can help you build and sell. I could've used some help building the business a bit more to sell for a higher price but I was ready to get out sooner than later. I ended up using a lawyer from their network who did a great job drawing up the contract. All in all the business sold very smoothly and I'm happy with the sale price. Their valuation was accurate. Dylan on the Baton team was very helpful the whole time and communicative, but not overbearing. He was very open to, and actively sought, feedback which is a good foundation for a successful business. Honestly guys, there is no obligation here only opportunities. You can get the free valuation and walk away. For me, I was so appreciative of the free valuation (saving me a couple thousand dollars) and to be connected with a quality lawyer. Of course I could've hired a different lawyer through my own means, but this lawyer did a great job at a fair price. I love Baton's business model, it's very refreshing.

Baton really helped me understand what my business was worth and what I could improve to increase the value of my business. The valuation process was super simple - I provided them access to my financials, filled out a quick survey, and was then given my valuation. I spoke to a Baton advisor, and they walked me through my valuation and shared what I could do to improve that over time. While I'm not necessarily looking to sell my business right now, it has changed how I think about my growth, so I'll be more ready to sell someday in the future.

Chat was very helpful with the insights provided in valuing our business. It was a unique situation involving splitting apart our business into two separate entities and valuing both of them, which gave me some clear information on where we stand currently, and where we need to be in order to get the max value for our company.

Baton helped me navigate muddy waters when it came to evaluating an offer from someone to buy my business. They also provided pro-active recommendations on how to improve the value of my business, and recommended a vetted vendor who wound up making a huge impact. Working with Baton was a huge win for my business.

I co-own a small marketing and communications agency. We tried out Baton -- we probably want to sell the business eventually, but not yet. We were curious about our valuation today, though. I consider us pretty sophisticated business owners. We have owned P&Ls at Fortune 500 companies and led big teams in high-growth companies for years before starting our agency. We also have a business consultant. Still, Baton gave us new and incredibly helpful information. It is great to know for the future, when we want to sell, but in the meantime they are giving us tools to run our business more efficiently and at a higher profit. I highly recommend the process to any small business owner.
