Please contact me to learn more about selling  your business at 631-909-1095 or melvaz@vestedbb.com .   These are just a few testimonials from recent business sellers.   They are quotes from actual clients.  Contact information can be provided upon request: “I worked with Mel to sell my eCommerce business and he found a buyer I was very happy with. I was extremely happy my company sold! Mel is one of the most professional business brokers I have ever worked with. He follows up, he is responsive, and he really does a great job. He also communicates very well. Because of his great work, I put another one of my companies for sale with him and Vested. I am not using any other broker because I feel he will definitely find me another buyer and I would rather give him the business. I am also looking for another business opportunity and would prefer to go through him. He really is a great guy and I really like working with him. He is definitely one of the more honest brokers out there
