Radon Be Gone - MVP helped Radon Be Gone "RBG" evaluate potential acquisitions which included one where the owner was reaching the point of burnout, but the owner was concerned about selling the business in case things didn't work out. With MVP's guidance RBG got a bit creative and instead of acquiring the business, they agreed to hire this owner and one of his key employees. As part of the agreement, RBG "acquired" the following assets: i) 2 key seasoned employees; ii) current and past client list; iii) ongoing jobs and sales pipeline; and iv) phone number. These were the key assets RBG was interested in acquiring and they were able to do it without having to go through the formal acquisition process. -

SMALL Business… Maximum Value Partners loves small businesses and feel that the backgrounds and experiences are well suited (without the pinstripes or ties) to give you the attention and direction that is focused on your needs.
While Cleveland, Ohio is home, MVP works with clients all over the United States through virtual coaching. Not being self-proclaimed experts in small business, but Maximum Value Partners has “been there, done that” many times. If you’re thinking of hiring business consultants, you should also consider talking with a coach at MVP.

What Our Clients Have To Say
If I was to look at everything we talked about one year ago and where we’re at today it’s completely different…It’s exciting to come to work every day because every day I’m hitting my goal…My biggest problem was I was stuck in the moment of it and took everything too personally, as an owner typically does. With Adam and Jack’s help, I started to look at things in a true ownership fashion…People weren’t in the right spots. Over the past year we’ve been putting people in the right spots and the growth out of that has been tremendous…The principles they teach apply to every business regardless of whether it’s a landscaper or construction company or a marketing company…they help you focus and are available 24/7…I would say they are close friends.

These guys are realistic enough to get into it with just about anyone, zero in on their issues, and are open minded enough to work with a company in whatever capacity they need. If you’re trainable, they can work with you."
- Phil Billick, Air Compliance Testing, Inc.
MVP has proved to be a valuable resource for our company. The experience and guidance from them has allowed our company to evolve and thrive. If you are a small business owner don't hesitate, they can help you reach your goals, define your vision and teach you the tools to get there.
- Craig Smotzer, PDQ Printing Services
At first I was skeptical as to how a non-industry related professional would help my business. It was that procrastinating that cost me time and money. In the three years of our engagement the basis behind their "7 keys" has allowed our company to acquire another firm, increase our profit margins, and help forge a partnership with a bank that I never dreamed imaginable. Ignoring what they have to offer will undoubtedly cost you time and money!
- Brian Maurer, Brian-Kyles Construction
We’ve been incredibly surprised and pleased with the level of expertise and recommendations they’ve provided. No matter what the issue, challenge or opportunity, Adam and Jack have always been able to provide sound advice and council on how to maximize our opportunities.

We have been woking with MVP for over 6 years and cannot say enough about how much they have helped us. During that time we have grown from one location to four and our growth continues.
- Joe Butler, Prescription Fitness
I'm not sure how to rate them anything other then outstanding. I follow their guidance in everything we do. They are a huge part of our success and continue to be so.
- Bob Scaccia, USA Firmware
I have had the benefit of working with Maximum Value Partners for the better part of 6 years. My perspective is unique. My initial interaction with Jack and Adam was working for a company that utilized their services. Later, after the sale of that business, MVP helped give me the tools and confidence to start my own business, Margin Authority. So that makes me a proud client of MVP. It would be hard to put into words the comfort of having my own Board of Directors who bring their years of business expertise and acumen. Sometimes you need to be pushed, other times you need to be 'directed'. I haven't found a situation in my years of working with them that Jack and Adam did not have words of advice or potential solutions. If you are having problems scaling, work life balance, time management skills call MVP. Let them help you!

“As Midan Marketing began to grow, Michael and I realized we were experts in our trade, but needed assistance in growing Midan. Growth meant change and we needed a partner to help us navigate a new path. MVP helped us build a solid foundation for our future.”
- Danette Amstein
"MVP helped Danette and me realize that if we wanted Midan to grow, we needed to focus our attention on running and growing the company.”
- Michael Uetz
"I think I saved a lot of trial and error thanks to the experience of Adam and Jack, both as business owners and coaches. I might have gotten there eventually, but working with them saved me time and money. It also gave me the confidence to move forward – I know I can trust their advice, and if they tell me to move on my ideas, it’ll work."
- Joe Butler
"One of the things that was made clear to me by MVP when we first got together is that if you have a vision, it begins to happen. You attract the right people – for your team and in terms of clients. They told me that once I put together a 10-year plan and put it out there, people who can help you make that plan happen start to present themselves. You can do anything in 10 years – you just need to visualize it and move forward."
- Joe Butler
