Conflicts of interest in SMB M&A are common but rarely disclosed. When seeking advice, how often do you see clear acknowledgments of these conflicts? The field has its share of bad actors whose "client-only" advice often serves themselves first. Noticing something odd? The self-styled M&A "gurus" warning you about charlatans and bad actors in SMB deals - are often the very people you should be avoiding. Have you seen good—or bad—examples? Comment or DM, please.
