Lana was confident, positive and reassuring
“We were so fortunate to have been referred to First Choice Business Brokers. I had never dreamed that anyone would be interested in purchasing our 62 years old family business. When I told friends and business associates in our niche industry that we sold our business their responses were as if they were reading from a script: "You are so incredibly lucky, who the hell would buy a Rubber Stamp Company these days?!?" Lana and Adrianna performed extraordinary magic. Within a couple of weeks of listing our business we had 3 offers for our full asking price. Most of our dealings were with Lana. She was confident, positive and reassuring that everything was going to be alright and she delivered on that reassurance. FCBB were knowledgeable, top notch professionals in every aspect and at each juncture of this incredible transaction. This was a tough emotional process for me. I found Lana to be sincerely empathetic, patient and generous with her time to answer questions or to offer me a pep talk as needed. The successful sale of our business was no small fete. To us, it was like a, honest to goodness miracle. I am so very grateful that we had the good fortune of finding Lana & Adrianna. Their efforts made, what seemed like a dream, become a life changing reality.”

We are forever grateful for Adrianna's services!
“Without Adrianna and her team, our restaurant purchase would have remained only a dream. Adrianna’s professionalism, organization, negotiating skills, and tenacity allowed our dream to become a reality. The time and energy she put forth into brokering our restaurant deal went above and beyond our expectations. This was our first experience with buying a restaurant and we had no idea what we were getting into. Adrianna’s guidance and counseling gave us confidence that we could succeed in what appeared to be a very daunting venture. This deal took longer than any of us anticipated, but Adrianna stuck with us and never fatigued. But for her, this deal would have never happened. We are forever grateful for her services!”

Adrianna is truly an amazing person to work with from beginning to end.
“Adrianna is truly an amazing person to work with from beginning to end. She is someone who innately understands her client’s needs without hesitation and goes out of her way to achieve it. She is also a strong business mind who is not scared to give her opinion, so she can pivot the deal to guide her client in the right direction. Her organization is supreme, and she cares about the individual rather than the transaction. I would recommend Adrianna and her team to any buyer or seller looking for a seasoned broker to navigate those murky waters of any business deal. Thank you again.”

I highly recommend Adrianna Smith
"I had a pleasure to work with Adrianna Smith from First Choice Business Brokers to find a business for purchase. After considering different options, I decided to go with a listing from her database; a Danish ice cream franchise with whom I consequently signed an agreement. Adrianna was always quick to reply to my emails and answer any questions that I had. She helped me with the franchise agreement to make sure that I fully understand what I am being offered. Being a professional business broker with extensive years of experience and easy to deal with, I highly recommend Adrianna Smith!"

Adrianna really knows her stuff and she will work hard for you
“If you truly serious about a business you like and you want to see it through, then don’t think about working with another brokerage other than First Choice! I have been in business for the last 20 years and worked with many brokers on several transactions. who simply list the property being sold on their website but have no clue about the inner workings of how to get the deal done. Adrianna really knows her stuff and she will work hard for you to ensure that you not only get the best deal, but also ensure that all aspects of the contract are met fully. The way she complies with her fiduciary responsibility for the person she represents is amazing. I would recommend this brokerage to anyone looking for a business. My next venture (hopefully soon) will also be through them!”

Lana walked us through the whole process with ease.
“Selling a business is a daunting undertaking, but Lana walked us through the whole process with ease. She communicated with us about what to expect and helped us to think critically about how to present our business as an attractive package. She also targeted potential opportunities to grow the business beyond its current state, strengthening its appeal to entrepreneurial buyers. Lana secured a buyer in less than two months. She spared us any additional headaches by facilitating the majority of the communication between us and the new buyers. The sale and escrow closing were seamless. Ultimately, selling our business was as easy as a few phone calls and signatures.”

Just WOW! Look forward to working with them again.
Just WOW! My company recently purchased a similar business that was brokered by Lana and Adrianna. Although originally they represented the Seller, their team did a great of representing both parties in the transaction. They were responsive to our many questions, meetings, and phone calls. I most of all appreciated the time they took to meet with us and the Seller to bring all of us closer to an agreement. They were very patient and creative in helping us find ways to make the business transfer and transition go smoothly. We are very thankful to have found them and look forward to working with them again.
