  • John Phillipp

    I Just wanted to say thank you in helping us sell our pack and ship store Goin' Postal North Port. From our listing through closing, you were there to help, guide, and support. You made what could have been a difficult transition, a easy process. Through your efforts it was a win win for both parties. We certainly recommend your firm to anyone needing to buy or sell a business.

  • Jamal Hishmeh | Joseph’s Deli & Catering

    We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your professionalism and great attention in selling our business. You made the sale of our business virtually seamless for both the buyer and seller. The buyers were able to obtain a great business that will continue to be a staple in Charlotte County for years to come. John works with only qualified buyers. He was able to find a great family that wanted to live the Floridian lifestyle and escape the cold winters of the north. I can’t thank you enough for the great transaction.

    Warmest Regards,

  • William Vanderstine | Bella Luna Cafe

    I am writing to thank you for your high level of professionalism in representing our Business, Bella Luna Café. From the time we listed Bella on August 19, 2012 you were committed to getting it sold by working long hours and always being available to answer any questions that arose along the way. Because of your honesty and integrity, I would not hesitate to recommend John Williams to any of my business peers.
