I've just started communicating with the firm. So far, so good. I'm being helped with timely information and responsiveness. I look forward to buying one of the companies they may represent. I'm interested in a technology and management consultancy, as a buyer.

Sign up was not smooth. Seemed to have infinite loop issues. Listings were marked as "Under contract"almost as soon as I filled up detailed form. Listings disappeared after I sent a message to the owner. Not sure what is happening behind the scenes. Poor user experience.

When I first contacted Baton Marketing, I was very interested in the way they did business and looking for buyers and of course seller like me. After a few meeting my partner and I decided to go and give it a try. Working with our rep, we when through and fill out paperwork about our company and also did a few video's that help set up with question for us to answer. To our surprise, within a week we had buyers showing interested in our company and after 2 months we found a buyer. I was told our sale was quicker them most, but with their help and support working with the buyers, it all came together quickly. They were great to work with and more important they did what they said they do throughout the sales process.

As an attorney handling many small business sales, I've worked with a wide range of brokerages and advisors. Baton and their team are experienced and have a well-structured process that makes my job easier. This, in turn, leads to a more efficient and cost-effective legal process for their clients. We would happily recommend Baton to any of our clients looking to sell their business

The process from the initial call was terrific. Their "prospector" cold called me and being in sales for 40+ years I was skeptical to say the least. But as she/Alex explained the process the more interested I became. At the end of the call, I was very engaged and wanted to learn more. Then I was put in touch with Reid K, who is nothing short of a gem and a pro. Patient, thorough, professional and easy to work with. Trying to sell a business on my own was potentially an extremely daunting process. Once committed, Reid and his team took care of all the documentation/financials, which were all uploaded to their portal so I didn't have to submit every time a prospective buyer contacted me to ask and then I would have had to get NDA's on every potential buyer and vet them myself. Baton vetted everyone and once deemed viable, set up short discovery calls for the buyers tand myself to ask questions and determine levels of interest. Once a buyer was secured, and an LOI was submitted, Reid/Baton took care of the process from escrow, to legal, to purchase and sale agreements +++. At the end of the day, even though the transaction took a bit longer than hoped for, it had nothing to do with Baton. Do yourselves a huge favor, have Baton handle all your transactions, you'll save a ton of time, aggravation, and in the end, money. They are a valuable cost effective resource with all the tools rolled into one neat package. So glad they "found" me.

Overall, a good selling experience. Serena was always responsive when we had questions or topics to discuss. We had discussion with a number of prospective buyers and closed with the one that was the best match.

Navigating this website feels like a breath of fresh air. The design is intuitive & it is a truly user-friendly experience. Whether you're a acquisition newbie or a seasoned pro, you'll feel right at home browsing opportunities. Trust me - it'll be difficult to use their competitors after this just due to the scattered & vague/missing information provided. The team is top notch as well. Everyone I've been in contact with at Baton has been incredible. All around great experience!

Interesting platform. I like that it helps streamline the front end of the business buying process. It goes from reviewing a listing to signing an NDA to gaining access to the data room much faster and way easier. Love that it's one NDA for all businesses on the platform. After that, however, I'm less in love. If you have follow up questions or want to talk to the broker, it's still an automated process - that can take up to 7 days for a reply! In my experience, time kills all deals. I'd like the opportunity to chat with a broker way sooner than that.
