From a Successful Buyer - February 11, 2010
It was only a dream for the longest time. We saw a place and called out of
curiosity. Larry Braden was on the other side of the line and convinced us
to have a look. This was at the end of August 2009. The deal closed, the
dream ended (and came true of course!) and we moved into our Wine Bar in
November. Larry walked us through everything and supported all questions,
issues, concerns; just about everything, making sure we were satisfied 100%.
Thanks Larry, for all the hard work, for being part of our dream that came
true and making this chapter of our lives a success story.

From A Prospective Buyer - July 21, 2009
Even though we were not able to close a specific deal that we worked on, I have been really impressed with the honesty and thoroughness of Larry Braden and Selling Restaurants. The deal had several levels of complexity and Larry was very helpful in navigating them and disclosing them to us. Larry has been very fair and transparent thus establishing trust for all parties involved. I look forward to working with him in the future.
Sincerely,

From our First Seller Client in Washington State:
I can't say enough good things about Larry Braden at SellingRestaurants and
the help he was in selling our restaurant. The buyer proved to be very
difficult, as it was his first purchase. Larry professional and calmly
navigated everyone through a number of issues to closing.
He was professional throughout the process and I would highly recommend him
to anyone buying or selling a restaurant.
Thanks,

"I would recommend John Powers without any reservation. He is a good communicator and an effective deal-maker. I have encountered many agents in the past and I can say without hesitation that John was the easiest to work with. I look forward to working with him on future purchases. "

From a Former SVP Colleague and Business Partner at Universal Music Group
“Larry is an intelligent and diligent finance and biz dev executive with a clear understanding of marketing. He possesses insight in the interactive media, e-business and entertainment space, from his work at both Warner, Universal and Vulcan Ventures. He can appear rather subdued but is full of ideas and gets the job done. I suspect he's carried his dedication in his new venture.” July 16, 2007

From a Former Supervisor -
“Larry was an invaluable member of the Time Warner Internal Audit Dept. His analytical abilities are matched by few, and he has the gift of being able to hone in on details while keeping the "big picture" in mind. He has an admirable work ethic; in fact, his conscientiousness and industriousness inspired the more senior members of our team to work harder. Though he's a diligent worker, Larry is also a pleasure to work with. He knows when to have fun and he has a great sense humor. I enjoyed working with Larry immensely and was most grateful for his competence and reliability.” June 17, 2007
