What should a business owner evaluate before hiring The Kuby Company?

An owner evaluating The Kuby Company should clarify which legal entity will sign the engagement and receive transaction compensation in the applicable state, including how the Florida arrangement under Game Changer Referrals, LLC applies. The engagement discussion should also address the applicable license, registration, or referral arrangement.

Because the Begin Your Journey page describes compensation as industry standard and paid only upon closing without publishing a universal percentage, minimum fee, expense schedule, tail period, or termination schedule, an owner should request those terms in writing. Other diligence topics include buyer-channel strategy, buyer financial-capacity and confidentiality procedures, valuation methodology, conflicts, and references from owners in a comparable sector and size range.[1][3][5]
