* Today’s episode is all about participating in brokered transactions, and working with brokers more broadly (by "brokers", I am referring to investment banks, accounting firms, business brokers, or any other sell-side advisor whose job it is to help clients sell their companies). To inform our discussion today, I’m joined by Ryan Farkas, a Partner, Managing Director and the Practice Leader in M&A and Capital Markets at BDO, who has successfully closed countless sell-side advisory transactions spanning dozens of industries.
