Partners
Nobody transfers a business on their own
Sharing ownership touches your attorney, your CPA, your valuation and whoever is helping you grow. Reins is building the network that covers all of it, so an owner is never sent away to work out the hard part alone.
We already work through the networks you trust
If you are in one of these, Reins is already in the room with you. These are the coaching groups, member networks and platforms the trades actually run on.
And the ones still signing
The network is being assembled discipline by discipline. This is where it starts.
Seven disciplines, one introduction
An ownership transfer needs all of these and most owners assemble them from scratch, one referral at a time. We are putting them in one place. Here is honestly how far along that is.
Growth and consulting
The coaching groups and member networks above. They already advise these owners on how to grow, which is the same conversation as who to keep.
Legal
Attorneys who paper deferred compensation and small business transitions, rather than general counsel meeting phantom stock for the first time on your matter.
Tax
CPAs who can tell an owner what a plan does to their return, and a stakeholder what a payout does to theirs, before either signs anything.
Valuation
Independent valuation for the cases that need a third party in the room: a sale, a bank, a dispute, or a number an owner wants checked against ours.
Advisory and exit
M&A and exit advisors for the transfer itself, on the side of the owner rather than the buyer, which is not the default in this market.
Lending and banking
SBA lenders and banks who understand a business with an incentive plan on it. Most ownership transfers are financed, and most lenders have not seen one of these.
Wealth and planning
Planners on the receiving end of a payout, for the owner after a sale and for a stakeholder who suddenly holds something liquid.
How a connection actually works
01
Owners tell us what they're up against
A question you have parked, a decision you are not sure about, or a plan that needs someone to look at it. Booking sales or support is the way in.
02
We name a specific person
Not a directory to search. Someone who has done this in your trade, at your size, and who we would put in front of our own customers.
03
You deal with them directly
Reins introduces you and steps out of the middle. They are your advisor, not our subcontractor, and the relationship is yours.

The plan documents and the valuation in front of you from the start
