"Michael's relaxed style and excellent communication skills make him an outstanding teacher, counselor, and business consultant. What's most remarkable is his ability to convey realistic ideas in simple, pragmatic, narrative terms. He makes it so easy!"

"Michael was instrumental in helping restructure our company through a challenging transitional period. As a board advisor, he is professional, insightful and balances unique ideas with a healthy dose of reality."

"Roupp Acquisitions exceeded my expectations as a buy side broker in all respects for the acquisition of Scientific Supply & Equipment. Michael’s superior business acumen ensured that the due diligence process was thorough, efficient, and effective. At every turn he puts his clients first. He is highly creative, articulate, bright, and better equipped to represent a buyer than most attorneys. Ultimately, his experience and creative ideas made the acquisition process far more cost effective. He’s always prepared and always looking out for me – even after closing. I am sure glad that he was on my side of the table. If I ever decide to sell my business Roupp Acquisitions will be my first phone call."

"When we went looking for a broker to sell our businesses of 27 years we were very pleased we chose Roupp Acquisitions. Being in the boating and engine rebuilding business, neither of us knew much about strategy and spreadsheets. Michael’s attention to the fine detail was very impressive and comforting. This sale was one of the most important transactions of our life. We needed to rely on someone with knowledge in business financial matters to not only get us the best return but understand what would work for the buyer. We found this in Michael. He worked very hard to meet our needs detailing each step as we reviewed each agreement. For us, Michael had a way to explain in real life terms the positives and negatives of each agreement as the transaction came to a close. We thank you Michael for keeping us on track during the transaction of the sale of our 2 businesses. We could not have done it without your help."

But Michael Roupp dealt with every unique buyer candidate with great professionalism, skill, and finesse. Even after several grueling years of marketing the business, he continued to work hard and always went the extra mile until the right buyer was finally found and the deal was closed. Even post closing, Michael keeps checking in on me, offering to help with a variety of other business and personal financial matters. He cares about his clients."

"I wanted to let you know that we were talking about you the other evening and mentioning you to our friends how lucky we were to have met you and to work with your company. You helped us to successfully get through one of the biggest life changing decisions we have ever made and we have been thrilled with the results that you achieved for us through the selling of our company, the Professionals Guild.

You came highly recommended to us by a business associate, Carol Greenberg, of the Learning Exchange and you more than lived up to her words of praise. You exceeded our expecations and made what could have been a stressful transition very comfortable and exciting. We would be honored at any time to be used as a referral (please feel free to use this letter) or to speak to anyone personally. Your courtesy, professionalism and great sense of creativity and calm helped us achieve the results that two other brokers in the past were not able to accomplish. THANK YOU for making the selling of our company (our baby) such a wonderful experience."
