Business Planning

The business you spent a lifetime creating is more than a source of income and savings. It’s an important part of your family's legacy and tradition.

At Confluence Capital Advisors, we understand the financial and emotional ties that come with business ownership because we have experienced them firsthand.

The Family Business: More Than a Financial Asset

Considerable effort has gone into achieving a successful business.  The preparation for a business transition, be it a sale, partial sale, or passing it on to an heir, takes substantial effort as well.   An objective source can be crucial during this emotional period, working hand-in-hand with you and looking out for your best interests. 

Business Valuation

We have written and read many hundreds of research and valuation reports on public and private companies, and our research has been referenced in the book, The Three Rules: How Exceptional Companies Think. The origins of our “Quest for Value” date back to our founder’s curiosity to understand the value drivers of his family’s fourth-generation business and how to determine its worth.  Our training stems from some of the brightest minds on Wall Street. The commitment to learn the art and science of valuation is demonstrated by obtaining the designation, Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®).

With valuation and business analysis expertise, we work with you from the start to optimize your outcome, with the goal of helping you to move on to the next stage of your life
