We were Stanley when Stanley wasn’t cool

(Marty) Hi, my name is Marty Fahncke and I am one of the Partners here at Westbound Road and I have been Stanley since before Stanley was even cool!

Yep. This is my Stanley that I got in 1994. How do I know it was 1994? Turns out that on the bottom of every Stanley it has a little date stamp that tells you when it was manufactured. I didn’t know that until recently. Maybe I just taught you something too.

This Stanley has been with me now for 30 years exactly. It’s been on hunting trips, camping trips, fishing trips, ice fishing, sledding with the kids, skiing, cross country.

You name it, this thing’s had a lot of coffee and a lot of hot chocolate in it over the years. But it got me thinking about myself, like I’ve been around a long time.

I’m getting to be an old guy. So I’ve got a ton of experience in Mergers and Acquisitions over the last 24 years of doing deals with over 500 million dollars worth and that experience is available for you.

Whether you’re looking to buy a business or sell a business, that foundation of knowledge and that experience is here to help you.

But on top of that I also have with me Becky the younger and more beautiful partner here at Westbound Road.

She’s going to tell you about her Stanley.

(Becky) Thanks Marty!

I have had my Stanley since 2024, about a month now.

I keep us up to date on the latest and greatest tools, tactics, and techniques. Including a lead gen system that brings in buyers and sellers from all over the world.

We also have a state-of-the-art CRM program to keep us organized and automate our workflows and great design for our videos ads, and social posts.

(Marty): So if you’re looking to do an acquisition and you want tried and true experience combined with the (Becky) latest cutting edge (Marty) Westbound Road is your acquisition partner.
