Background

About Andrew Cavanaugh

Andy Cavanaugh possesses a unique skill set obtained over 20 years of experience owning, working in, and consulting for companies ranging from a single store shop on Main Street to Fortune 500s and quite a few in between. He is currently serving as a Senior Advisor for Apex Business Advisors, where he connects buyers and sellers of small to mid-sized businesses. In this role, he can utilize the skills and experience he has acquired over the past 20 years and combine those with the passion he has for Small businesses to match Business Owners interested in selling their business with qualified, interested, and capable Buyers in the transaction process. Before joining Apex, Andy owned and operated a retail franchise in the Kansas City area. As an owner-operator for nearly ten years, he was responsible for everything that went on with the business, from Marketing, Customer Relations, and Human Resources. This provided a real-world education of a company's life cycle from establishing to growing to selling the business. This experience provided an even deeper understanding of managing a Profit and Loss to maximize the cash flow and business value to ready the company for a sale. Prior to owning and operating his business, Andy spent nearly 15 years working in various consulting and leadership capacities for CommunityAmerica Credit Union, Accenture, H&R Block, and RSM US (formerly McGladrey). His consulting background can be found today in how he manages his Clients through the Buying and Selling process of a Business. Through detailed requirement gathering and understanding the needs of each client, Andy can match buyers and sellers with the exact opportunities they are seeking. This has resulted in a proven track record of incredibly high ROI, productivity, quality, and customer satisfaction while making the process as painless as possible. Before his work with Apex, Andy was involved with the buying and selling his entrepreneurial ventures, including an online Golf Tee Time Reservation and marketing company, a procurement consulting firm, and a wraps and salad restaurant, to name a few. When Andy isn't helping people buy and sell businesses, you can find him coaching his daughters' various youth sports teams and rooting for the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals.
