Salem, Massachusetts

Planning for construction and trade business owners in Salem

The business works. Just not without you.

Salem's building stock is old, which makes the work specialised. Restoration carpentry, masonry, historic window and roofing work, and the general contractors who know how to get a permit through in a district with rules. Those are small, skilled, reputation-driven companies, and the reputation usually belongs to the owner personally.

This may sound familiar…

Different businesses. Different stages. Same problem.

It looks different on the surface. But underneath, many owners are dealing with the same challenge: the business still depends on them.

Everything still runs through you

Key areas still depend on you

The business slows down when you step away

Systems are inconsistent or in your head

Risk is concentrated in a few people or clients

Wealth remains heavily concentrated inside the business

Questions from Salem owners

Before you call.

Do you meet in person in Salem?

Yes. Salem is about five miles from the Beverly office, so in-person meetings are easy to arrange.

Which trades do you work with?

General contractors, subcontractors, specialty trades, and the family companies behind them. If the business depends on you, it fits.

Do I need to be thinking about selling?

No. Most owners we work with are not planning an exit. They are trying to build a business that does not need them in every decision.

Start building.

If you’re beginning to think more seriously about structure, succession, or long-term optionality, that’s the conversation.
