Arnie Hendricks was indispensable in guiding us through the process and ultimate sale of our 100 year old family business in mid 2018. His contacts and respect in the Seattle business community enabled us to meet and interview a number of outstanding mergers and acquisition professionals. With his help, we were able to assemble the team to market our company, solicit bids, represent us in negotiations and provide the necessary legal expertise. Arnie was our “sounding board” every step of the way, and we were able to close a very successful sale.
Arnie has helped us and many others immensely over the years through training classes he has done for various business groups as well as being a valued friend and business coach/consultant specifically for our business and management team. He has that unique combination of being an excellent communicator AND skilled business professional with great experience, insight and integrity. In fact, after we implemented our internal succession plan several years ago, Arnie encouraged us to look at the big picture for our industry and trends; to make overall business transition planning a priority and consider all options, even a potential sale. Ultimately, that is what we ended up doing in 2018.
