The Vann Group, LLC

The Vann Group, a multi-generational, family-owned firm based in Western Massachusetts, provides both strategic consulting and transactional advisory services, effectively operating as business brokers and M&A advisors for small and mid-size businesses throughout New England. Led by President Michael Vann, who brings over 20 years of experience particularly with second-stage companies, the firm adopts an intentionally industry-agnostic approach, applying universal best practices in strategy, management, and finance while taking time to understand the unique nuances of each client’s business. Their core philosophy emphasizes direct and honest counsel (“calling it like we see it”), building strong personal connections and trust, and delivering simple, actionable advice focused on helping owners work on their business to foster long-term growth, scalability, and continuity. For search fund entrepreneurs operating in Massachusetts or the broader New England region, The Vann Group offers comprehensive support—assisting with acquisitions by providing strategic frameworks for evaluation and planning, and guiding owners through eventual exits via succession planning or M&A execution to help them build, maximize, and realize their company’s value, making them versatile business brokers and strategic partners.
