When and how quickly does the transition happen?
Future growth
Find a path that gives your agency the resources to grow without losing what made it successful.
Personal wealth
Consider your agency’s value in the context of your financial goals and the life you want after the transition.

Discreet introductions to select acquirers aligned with your agency’s culture, client base, and post-closing goals.
No pressure to pursue a transaction

A transition shaped around your priorities
Consider the right fit for your employees, clients, legacy, financial goals, and desired role after closing.
No advisory fees for agency owners
Buyers compensate Sageview, so you keep 100% of the purchase price.
About
Quality Introductions. Better Outcomes.
Marc Fowler
FounderAccredited Business Intermediary
My career spans more than 30 years, including 17 years in the insurance & financial services industry. I also founded, built, and sold a national marketing communications firm, giving me firsthand experience with the decisions and challenges owners face when considering a transition.
I launched Sageview to give agency owners the option I wish I'd had when selling my own company. A private way to explore options across a network of qualified buyers, compare alternatives, and find the right fit without a traditional sell-side engagement or the significant fees that come with it.
Today, I focus exclusively on off-market insurance agency introductions, connecting owners with a vetted network of buyers based on strategic, cultural, and personal fit.
I live in Celina, Texas, with my wife, Lisa. We've been blessed to raise three wonderful children.
