William Ilgenfritz
CBI, MBA
I help entrepreneurs buy, sell, or grow their business.
*People in organizations work with me and Murphy Business because of the confidentiality around the transactions
*Partnering with me takes some of the stress out of buying or selling your business as I can lead you from valuation to closing. Allowing you to spend more time focusing on your business and less time weeding through potential buyers or sellers that don’t meet your criteria.
