You only get to sell or merge your agency once; Doug Levi wants you to get it right
GAINESVILLE, FLA. – August 24, 2022 – Doug Levi, Liberty Managing Partner and Chief Encouragement Officer of Strategic Insurance Services, a member of the Liberty Company Network of Insurance Brokers, is proud to debut the release of his second book, “Your Winning Move: An Agency Owner’s Guide to Selling or Merging your Business,” now available on Amazon. As a result of Levi’s first-hand experience in partnering with Liberty, the book details lessons-learned, tips and recommendations to help agency owners prepare for the biggest sale of their life.
“As a local agency owner, you’ve put your blood, sweat and tears into your business, and every one of us will exit our business someday. My goal is to help you be prepared.” said Levi.
Most agency owners don’t understand the basics of Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A), but whether a current or future sale, this is a critical part of the process. Levi’s book offers insight into Due Diligence, Legal documents overview and Deal Structure. Levi’s book also explains the importance of culture in your decision-making process, the financials you need to understand, how to assemble a good team of advisors, and more.
When asked why he authored the book, Levi said “To help other agency owners better understand the process of selling or merging their business and provide valuable information that isn’t readily available.”
Beyond his dedication to serving the insurance community, Levi is donating a portion of the book proceeds to Life Water, a non-profit, Christian organization dedicated to providing access to safe water, and improved sanitation and hygiene, one village at a time.
