As a previous business owner, I understand first-hand the fast-paced, pressurized environment that you work in and the challenges of managing payroll, advertising, sales, operations, and competition, all on a razor-thin budget. I have over 25 years of experience in sales, support, training, business operation, and P&L management.

Prior to becoming a business broker, I worked in high-tech as a senior manager at Apple Computer, owned and operated my own business, and spent several years in advertising and sales. I have a B.A. from Santa Clara University, am a Certified Business Broker (CBB), and am an active member of the International Business Broker Association (IBBA).

As a Business Broker, I work with small business owners and entrepreneurs of all sizes with expertise in marketing and selling businesses with sales between $500K-$1M and those with sales of $2M – $10M. I love helping business owners and work diligently to accurately price, advertise, list, and sell their businesses. I keep a close pulse on market changes and constantly educate myself so that I can better serve my clients.

I live in Walnut Creek, California, and am well known in the Bay Area but also work with clients throughout the U.S. Reach out to me to schedule an initial call at calendly.com/antoinette-gonzalesnorris/.

As an experienced and licensed California business broker, I know your business is as important to you as my business was to me. I am a past entrepreneur passionate about selling software and B2B services businesses. I work with clients and buyers across the USA.

My typical clients are owners of companies with $3m-$20m in revenue and 20-50 employees located within the USA. My extensive buyer network consists of Private Equity, Family Office, and SearchFund organizations across the USA and Canada. In addition, I reach out directly to corporate strategic buyers when appropriate.

I offer a hands-on, high-touch level of service to my business clients. My sell-side services cover the entire process of preparing your business for sale through closing. Additionally, I realize this is likely your first exit process. Therefore, I’ll work with you to understand each step of the journey.

Before starting my own California business brokerage practice, I held numerous sales and business development positions within the high technology industry. I have worked in both startups and also large corporations within the software industry. During my time in the software industry, I successfully negotiated multi-million dollar global deals with large companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, and Sun Microsystems.

Before becoming a licensed California business broker, I ran a commercial print brokerage business focused on business-to-business catalogs. We had contractual relationships with printers across the country and primarily functioned as their outsourced sales agents. My team and I grew this business to become the third-largest print brokerage in the country. A key reason we were successful was because of the software we developed for our internal use. After much thought, I sold this business myself in 2013 and transitioned to a business broker a few years later.

I’m also a big believer in exit planning. Knowing what comes next is key for an entrepreneur who has built a business from the ground up. For that reason, I hold a CEPA designation. I maintain a network of other advisors to help my clients plan and execute their business exit. This network includes attorneys, CPAs, and Financial Advisors.

I earned an MBA from New York University in finance and a BA from the University of Pennsylvania in economics. I live on the Peninsula with my family and have been in the SF Bay area since 1996.

As an entrepreneur for 25 years, I have experienced the trials of starting, building and selling several businesses of my own ranging from retail stores to multi-million dollar marketing and manufacturing companies. Working through both sides of many transactions has given me a comprehensive understanding of business valuation, deal structuring, creative problem solving and due diligence.

I have a BS in Finance, Real Estate and Law and a strong background in product development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and intellectual property with over a dozen patents and trademarks of my own.

Selling a business can be a complex and emotional process for both buyer and seller. Focusing on running and maintaining the course of your business during this time is critical. As a licensed business broker since 2015, I provide a comprehensive business valuation, procure and prequalify buyers and provide confidential professional guidance throughout the entire process.

Selling your business for top dollar and earning referrals through excellent service is my highest priority.
