About Me

 "I connected with McLaughlin Advisors when I needed to learn more about special education, autism, and applied behavior analysis.  In a few short months, John put me and members of my senior team through a crash course on special education including introductions to key leaders in public education and the ABA world.  The information and introductions were invaluable and helped guide our product development geared for the changing education arena." 

 "Sarah (Trautman) and John have their finger on the pulse of the state of affairs where autism, ABA, and business intersect. Their combined expertise are unparalleled to help guide the business owner through the myriad of decisions regarding business growth and development. I highly recommend their services.” 

 "I attended a workshop on ABA business valuation by McLaughlin Advisors and immediately reached out to have a discussion. Their free consultation was so valuable to us (we should have paid). They laid out the hard concepts in an easy to digest way while getting straight to the hard parts to consider in any deal. Their experience and attitude are top-notch professional." 

 "One of the best investments we made as business owners was to hire McLaughlin Advisors. John and his team possess a great deal of knowledge about today's education and therapy world. They conducted a thorough assessment of our business and walked us through their valuation process in great detail. They pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of our company and helped us to prioritize actions for improvement and areas for growth. We truly cannot say enough great things about John and his passion to help others succeed. Our only regret is not hiring them sooner!" 

"In the early stages of our company we hired McLaughlin Advisors to help us design and effectively track our company’s growth and exit strategy. They were instrumental in us achieving a clear strategy, and ensure we were tracking the right metrics to reach the goals. Their extensive network in the  field also connected us to other collaborators who in turn brought excellent value. We highly recommend them." 

 "I strongly recommend John as an advisor and consultant in the education, special education and autism space. When I started my company, John was the first person I turned to for industry knowledge, connections to influential people, and general advice. He's a first class man who always goes above and beyond."
