Exit planning for trades business owners

Preparing you for the hardest decision of your life: Exiting the business you spent 30+ years building.

Most trade business owners know how to run the work. They may not know how to prepare the business for what comes next.

I help you & your business get ready before you exit, so you walk away with what you've earned.

Why GGB:

I offer the industry-standard exit planning process, but I approach it from a different perspective, informed by my lived experience. 

  • Brand analysis (what makes you different)

  • Culture assessment (what makes your team stay)

  • Positioning & marketing (how buyers see you)

  • Personal readiness (are YOU ready for what comes next?) 

I translate the jargon into plain English. And I help you see your business the way buyers will.

About

I'm Andy DeMatos. I hold an MBA from Pepperdine Graziadio and spent 15 years building brands for Pabst, Indian Motorcycle, and Polaris.

But my connection to the trades runs deeper.

My father ran a dental lab for 50 years. I'm selling it now. I helped my brother exit his security business.

I'm living through how overwhelming this process is for people who built a business around their trade. The paperwork never ends. Nobody prepares you for this part.

That's why I started Gotta Go Buffalo.
