7 Success with Buyers and Sellers “They suggested several companies for our consideration before we selected GeoEconomics. Then they worked with us to close this important transaction in record time. Sokoloff & Co. has the contacts...and they know how to think strategically in the OSS market. We are very pleased with the outcome and will work with them again.” — Jim Odom, Martin Group CEO “Sokoloff & Co. quickly earned our trust and confidence. They served both sides well with expert advice and direction. From the beginning to the end of a very complex process, we depended on them - and they delivered.” —Matt Swenson, GeoEconomics CEO "Last year we retained Sokoloff & Co to assist us through the complex process of selling our company. Sokoloff did an excellent job of preparing collateral information and contacting numerous qualified buyers. Several buyers visited us here in Maine and a representative from Sokoloff was at every meeting. Ultimately, we were acquired in a strategic transaction with Boston Communications Group. Sokoloff & Company's services were very valuable to us; my partners and I thank them for their help, enthusiasm and guidance." --Dave Packhem, CEO Infotech Solutions Corp. "The Boston Communication Group had the opportunity to work with Sokoloff & Co. during a recent acquisition we concluded. Upon the closing of this transaction, we expressed our thanks to the staff of Sokoloff & Co. for presenting this company to us. We found that whatever information we needed, we could count on their office to provide answers to our questions.
