Owner Managed Businesses

The Mid-Atlantic Is All About Family Business and So Are We.
Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic have very diverse and vibrant economies. With an abundance of smaller, closely-held companies, many of these are owner managed businesses. Witt Mares has been the trusted business advisor for many of these businesses for over twenty years. Our team understands that running any business is a challenge, especially with the added complexity of being family owned.

Owner Managed Business Have Unique Needs.
These business people are constantly changing roles between owner and manager. It is our Firm's work in helping clients identify these positions, the roles they play and the issues they create within their business that differentiates us from our competitors. Family owned businesses simply have issues not found in other types of companies.

Our Goal Is To Make Each Owner Managed Business Successful.
However, the measure of success can vary widely. To some it will be the transition of management from one generation to the next. To others, it will be the sale of their business to begin retirement. Yet another may want to establish a company to give their family members a place to work and carry on a family name or tradition.

Put Our Team To Work For You.
It takes an experienced team to advise these types of businesses and truly help them become successful. Witt Mares stands ready to guide you in developing a winning strategy for your company. For more information on owner managed business services, contact Edward T. Blair, CPA.
