Eleven members of the Georgia Association of Business Brokers (GABB) helped business owners and entrepreneurs sell and buy more than $58 million worth of small- and medium-sized businesses this year.<br />
<br />
GABB members represent owners of Georgia businesses in the sales of their businesses. GABB members help owners determine the asking prices, create marketing plans and strategies for selling their businesses, and identify and qualify buyers while keeping the sale confidential from employees and customers. <br />
<br />
"In 2014, not only did the economy continue to strengthen, but business owners became more confident in their optimism about the economy," said GABB's 2014 President C. David Chambless. "With that increasing optimism, we believe that 2015 will be a banner year in the sale of businesses. Members of the GABB are uniquely positioned to provide professional guidance to business owners and business buyers in successfully transacting the sales of businesses."<br />
<br />
Topping the GABB's 2014 Million Dollar Club is Matt Slappey, owner of the Decatur branch of Murphy Business & Financial Corporation and past president of the GABB.<br />
<br />
Rounding out the top five producers are Jeff Merry, owner and founder of the BUSINESS HOUSE, inc. of Gainesville; GABB Treasurer Jon Merry, an associate of the BUSINESS HOUSE, inc. of Gainesville; GABB President C. David Chambless, president of Abraxas Business Services, Inc.; and Matt Wochele, president of Preferred Business Brokers, Inc.<br />
