In the very first episode of The Tabak Business Sales Podcast, Damien Fahey and Sam Cherry introduce themselves, share their professional backgrounds, and talk about the journey of Tabak Business Sales.
With over 27 years’ combined experience in business sales—and extensive backgrounds in accounting, banking, manufacturing, IT, and distribution—Damien and Sam explain how they each found their way into business broking and what continues to drive their work today.

In this episode, they cover:

• The origins and nationwide reach of Tabak;

• What sets Tabak apart from traditional brokerages;
• The importance of transparency and fit when taking on listings;
• How their national network supports smarter business sales; and
• A step-by-step overview of the sales process—from initial meeting through to settlement.

They also share real-world success stories, including

• A complex share sale completed remotely while recovering from a broken leg

Whether you’re a business owner thinking about your next move, an advisor supporting clients through succession, or a buyer looking to understand the process better—this episode lays a strong foundation for the series ahead.
