Testimonials
"As a practicing CPA here in Orange County, CA for the past 46 years, we work closely with advisors to provide solutions for all of our clients. One of the advisory firms that we work closely with (CEO Advisors/Mark Hartsell) consistently provides a high level of quality services to clients. They work directly with owners of businesses to prepare their companies for a sale, and manage the entire sale process from start to finish. They do an incredible job in making sure that accurate financial reporting are produced monthly and that the historical financials are consistent with GAAP as an important part of the preparation for a sale and the Due Diligence process.
I highly recommend Mark Hartsell, MBA, President of CEO Advisor, Inc. and his team for mergers and acquisitions services or management advisory services for smaller or mid-market companies considering selling in the next 1-5 years. "

"Mark Hartsell and CEO Advisor provided amazing hands-on guidance from the start of the sale process through to the closing. Not having sold a company before I was not aware of the complexity, and tremendous amount of time and expertise required by someone like Mark to prepare for the sale, locate a qualified buyer, negotiate a strong offer, perform the extensive due diligence process, and drive the process through to legal contracts and closing. CEO Advisor, Inc. was the catalyst in achieving a highly successful sale.”
