Listing with Ian, (Score Business Brokers) was the best decision made to sell my business. Highly recommended! A very professional, knowledgeable approach to all parts of the process. Someone you can trust. He knowns what he's doing, and enjoys his work. All real attributes to have, for his clients.
Thanks Ian.

I strongly recommend Score Business Brokers for anyone looking to sell their business. Ian is very professional, educated, excellent communicator, and very polite. During the process of selling the business he showed high professionalism, and his interest premium is very reasonable. A pleasure to work with Ian!

Ian recently helped me sell two franchise territories for my service business, both of which had been unsuccessfully listed before I brought Score on board. Thoroughly professional, Ian took the time to know my business and my goals before listing. He did all the leg work and even liaised with our Head Office to facilitate the sale. I'm very happy with the sale prices and it was a pleasure to work with Ian. I highly recommend Score Business Brokers.

The best call I made was to Ian at Score Business Brokers. He is attentive, thorough, clear, realistic and dedicated. He helped us every step of the way and even followed up after our sale was complete. The whole process with him took only a few months - and we had been trying to sell on our own for nearly two years. I highly recommend this guy to list your business with. We are looking so forward to retirement and are ever grateful to Ian for helping us get to this stage.

We highly recommend Score Business Brokers if you are considering selling your business. Ian is fair and easy to deal with, very knowledgeable and well connected in his field. Our business was sold fairly quickly during a pandemic! It was a pleasure working with you, thanks Ian!

Ian has helped me sell 2 businesses.
His calm, structured and caring approach has helped me through the full sales cycle. The work he invested up front helped justify the sale price to interested parties and he helped us negotiate deals that worked for both the buyer and myself.
The fact I have used him twice should demonstrate my willingness to recommend him to others when they reach the point that they are ready to sell a business.

This was our First time selling a business and Ian was amazing at dealing with the details on both sides of the sale. He located a Lawyer to do the paperwork and the costs were surprisingly low! Thank you Ian for all your help and we will definitely use you again in the future!

Ian was great. I had never sold a business before. All the ideas I had were terrible. Finding Score was the way to go. He walked me through the process, explained everything, helped with a valuation, and found the perfect buyers. It was absolutely money well spent on my part. And Ian is such a personable guy; very easy to deal with and very attentive. There was never a day of inactivity. Great experience.

I recently purchased a business from Ian. He is a very knowledgeable person. he explains to me all about business very well and helps me to find a lawyer to do my legal process. also, he was always calling me to know the update about the business process. and in the end, we had a really nice appreciation lunch. I would always recommend Ian for doing business with.

I recently sold a business using Ian’s services and the whole experience was excellent.
I was careful in choosing Ian as I had previously signed a 1 year contract with another broker and the experience did not go well. The previous broker was trying to work the sale of my business using a system created corporately but did not consider some of the intricacies of my business. This caused issues for both me and the prospective buyers. They confused the buyers with fancy terms, inconsistent documentation that all lead to additional lawyer and accountant reviews that were expensive, unnecessary and didn’t produce a sale. All of this could have been avoided if the broker would have done his job properly and spent the time to learn about my business and account for the differences in the first place.
Ian’s approach was far more efficient and helped the buyer and I come to an agreement quickly while still maintaining confidentiality as I was not prepared to announce a potential sale to my staff until it was done.
I would use Ian’s services again!
Thanks Ian,

Recently purchased a business through Ian. He set up good lines of communication early on and worked to broker the deal. Because of the open communication we were able to avoid excessive legal costs but we always knew where things were at in the process. He worked to keep the process moving and kept both sides accountable on deadlines. It was a pleasure working with Ian, and although I don’t plan to be in the market for a while I would happily work with Ian again.

Ian Thompson with Score Business Brokers was excellent to deal with and was of great assistance in closing the deal on my new liquor store. He acted as a professional liaison for both sides of the deal and his attention to detail ensured strong communication through the entire process. I recommend anyone that is considering buying a business or planning to sell their existing business contact Ian and use his services. Lastly, I’m now a new business owner of a business that was represented in an honest fashion and I can say that the ‘new ownership’ transition has been very smooth and exactly what I was expecting. Thanks Ian!

Ian did a great job of assisting us to sell our restaurant business in Red Deer. From sourcing the buyer to counselling both sides throughout the process, Ian was engaged and committed to making the deal happen while treating both sides fairly. The deal itself had a number of hiccups along the way but Ian remained steadfast in helping eventually get it across the goal line with value-added advice. If I was potentially selling another business I would contact Ian right away to help push the process to a favorable outcome.
