80% of small businesses are unsellable in their current state. For many owners, that means decades of work can disappear at the finish line. Buyers walk away, employees are left uncertain, and communities lose stability.

At Rowan, we believe your story deserves a better ending. That’s why we built a process that prepares your business, grows its value, and ensures it’s ready for the right successor.
