I would like to share a little about myself: Dana Stetson - Principal Broker. Since starting my career at IBM, as an Electrical Engineer, I have been at the forefront of business and technology. Following my 10 year tenure at IBM I held a range of sales leadership roles, generally working for start-ups, in the areas of telecommunications and financial services with a focus on the latest innovations in business productivity and customer service.


My business successes include exits to: Cisco, Citi and the New York Stock Exchange. Also I have experience in SMB lending services while I was running sales at the Receivables Exchange.


For my next act I will be focusing on enabling SMB business owners and founders to successfully sell the businesses they created for the best and highest value that the market will bear. Furthermore, I am also a Commercial Real Estate broker associated with my wife’s brokerage Stetson Real Estate enabling me to help business owners sell or lease their properties in conjunction with their business sales.


From my training at IBM the cornerstones of my personal business philosophy are honesty and providing the highest level of customer service.
