April 19, 2017 – INDEPENDENCE, OH – The International Business Brokers Association (IBBA) announced today that its members will receive free access to BizMiner’s Industry Financial Report bundle thanks to a partnership between the two organizations. IBBA is the world’s largest nonprofit group of business brokers and the insight gained through these resources will help IBBA members maximize their opportunities in the markets they serve.
“These reports are an essential tool for valuing, pricing and marketing businesses for sale,” said Louis Vescio, IBBA Chair of the Board. “The level of analysis in these reports are very valuable in helping our members be more successful.”
BizMiner produces the most granular industry statistical reports available on the market for over 9,000 lines of business. Company founder, Jon Brandow, shared his enthusiasm about partnering with IBBA. “It’s not every day that we are able to put our tools to work on behalf of so many new clients at once, much less in an industry segment as vital as business brokers,” he said. “I have no doubt that the brokerage community, the IBBA and BizMiner will all discover ongoing benefits to this collaboration.”
The analysis generated by BizMiner is used by accountants, business intermediaries, valuation specialists, banks, business owners and more to help further their success. IBBA selected BizMiner for its accuracy, breadth of content, user-friendly online interface and commitment to customer service.
IBBA members will receive 20 free Industry Financial Report downloads per year as part of their IBBA membership, with access enabled on or before the IBBA’s Annual Conference on May 5, 2017. In addition to the Report bundle, IBBA members will also benefit from savings on other BizMiner products.
