M. G. Wolff & Associates, Inc

View Full Profile
The standard approach in the business brokerage world still stems from a history of selling “Main Street” businesses (i.e. barber shops, meat markets, gas stations, etc.). These businesses typically owned real estate, which was often the most valuable part of the transaction. It is for this reason the business brokerage industry evolved with the real estate industry and why many brokerage houses still operate just like a residential real estate firm – get a listing, put some information together, put a few ads out, and see what happens. It is an antiquated system that creates…

Frequently Asked Questions

How are M&A Advisory Firms in this directory ordered?

Firms in the Minnesota M&A Advisory Firms directory are ordered based on recent deal activity on Axial. The default order reflects observed market signals rather than a subjective ranking of firm quality.

What information is included in each M&A Advisory Firm profile?

Each profile provides information about the firm’s areas of focus, transaction criteria, and relevant activity on Axial’s M&A platform. Together, these details provide a clearer view of where a firm is active and the types of companies and opportunities most relevant for it.

What company sizes are most common for Minnesota M&A Advisory Firms?

Based on activity on Axial’s M&A platform, the core revenue range for Minnesota M&A Advisory Firms is $8M-$40M, with a core EBITDA range of $2M-$7M. Company size can be an important indicator of fit, as firms often concentrate their experience, resources, and transaction activity within particular segments of the market.

How important is location when evaluating M&A Advisory Firms?

Location can be an important consideration, but it does not necessarily define where a firm is active. Firms based in Minnesota may bring regional knowledge, local relationships, and experience with businesses in the area, while many also pursue opportunities across a broader geographic footprint. Geography is best considered alongside sector focus, company size, and relevant transaction activity.

Do all M&A Advisory Firms in this directory operate exclusively in Minnesota?

Not necessarily. A firm’s location does not always define its geographic reach. Many M&A Advisory Firms based in Minnesota are active across multiple regions, while firms based elsewhere may also participate in the Minnesota market. Location can provide useful context, but it should not be interpreted as a firm’s geographic boundary.

How do I compare M&A Advisory Firms in Minnesota?

When comparing M&A Advisory Firms in Minnesota, consider factors such as sector focus, size range, and recent transaction activity. These characteristics vary across the 20 firms included in the directory and can help identify firms that align with your needs.

How do I connect with Minnesota M&A Advisory Firms?

Axial can help you identify and connect with firms based on your objectives and what you are looking to accomplish. The process varies depending on your role and transaction needs.
