David Barnett: Small Biz Management & Buy/Sell Advisor

David Barnett is a 1998 graduate of the Williams School of Business and Economics at Bishop’s University, and a graduate of UNBSJ’s Electronic Commerce Management Program.  Since the late ‘90s, Mr. Barnett has been building his profile as an expert in the field of small and medium sized enterprises.  
 

From 1998 to 2005, Mr. Barnett was a major account representative with the Yellow Pages.  This opportunity gave him an insight into the particular challenges of small & medium businesses as he dealt daily with the owners of these companies.  In 2005, Mr. Barnett left the publishing industry to start a small business with a partner.  Their venture was an immediate success.  After opening, operating and building the business, an opportunity to sell presented itself in late 2006.  
 

Around this time, Barnett began buying income properties. He eventually owned 3 multi-unit properties and one house which he disposed of in a lease-option deal.
 

In 2006, Mr. Barnett began building his professional consulting practice by starting Advantage Liquidity Partners Ltd. ALP Ltd. is a broker of commercial debt solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises including commercial mortgages, business loans, factoring facilities, and capital leases.  Barnett has arranged such financing for over 100 small and medium-sized companies.  Working with entrepreneurs to build their companies and/or acquire other firms naturally led to the field of business brokerage.
