The Cooperative Firm Initiative

To assist you in locating buyers for your sellers without requiring you to share your seller fee, Creative Business Services / CBS-Global’s Cooperative Firm Initiative works on behalf of our registered buyers. The latter pay us a buyer’s fee. We utilize our resources to find the best possible buyers for your sellers at no cost to you. Your guidance and close coordination between our firms are required in all dealings with buyers.

Relationship details:

  1. Unless you inform us otherwise when you send us a seller listing, we assume the following:
    • The seller entirely covers your fee as a duly appointed agent.
    • You’ve completed or will complete the offering memorandum, and it’s ready to be distributed to potential investors.
  2. We’ll utilize a generic “blind” profile to notify our customers when a new opportunity becomes available. Kindly inform us if you wish to meet with them; otherwise, we will not proceed with them. If we introduce a buyer to a specific seller opportunity through you and the transaction closes, we will collect our broker’s fee from the buyer. In that case, we will obtain their signature on your NDA.
  3. Notify us if you do not wish for us to contact any specific buyers.
  4. We need to provide the buyer with your seller’s name and a book of financials and promotional materials for them to evaluate the opportunity.
  5. You will retain total control over the buyer’s evaluation process. However, we must remain “in the loop” throughout the transaction to monitor its progress.

As a Cooperative Firm, our team will always maintain a sincere working relationship to minimize problems and accelerate your closing.
