AboutRobert Doblmeier, M.Sc. Expertise I am happy to answer questions about Small Business Sales i.e. Small businesses with Gross Sales in the 250K to 50 million dollar range. The business must be privately or closely held(no publicly traded companies).
Experience Why me? I am a full time business broker with a 14-year history in real estate in New York and Florida. I taught the New York State Licensing course for 2 1/2 years. I am the winner of VRs’ Prestigious Bronze Award for 2006, and a major reason my office won the Centurian Award in 2006. After just seven months in this office, I closed the deal that resulted in the largest single commission in our offices’ history, a record that stood for over 1 full year. I am an instructor for the Small Business Development Administration, teaching a course I designed and created called "How to Buy a Business". I am a Certified Networker and have won the Notable Networker Award three times in one year. I am also an instructor for the Referral Institute, teaching the Referral Pipeline course. In 2006, I was nominated to the Presidents' Business Advisory Council on Small Business. Most importantly, I have amassed a large database of recognized professionals that can facilitate your transaction.
Organizations The Referral Institute, Business Networking International, International Business Brokers Assoc., German American Business Council,
Publications Small Business Development Corp. and various private newsletters.
Education/Credentials B.Sc. Stockton College, M.Sc. Long Island University,
Awards and Honors Centurion Award for 2006, Bronze Award for 3Q 2006, Recognition for the First SBA loan done in the Office.
Past/Present Clients I can not , for reasons of confidentiality name past or current clients. I can name industries where I have facilatated a transaction: marine, furniture, beauty industry, education, food service, automotive, home improvement, construction, and tax industry.
I have 8 Convertible debentures and 2 stock certificates of World Resources International, Inc dated May 29th, 1987, issued an signed in Delaware by James E Tice as CEO and Ronald Deckman as Secretary. These values reach 315,000 USD face value.
I am trying to find out if they have any value but first I want to know whether this company is still alive, or if it was merged or what happened to it; then what should I do to turn them in cash (if possible).
Can you help me?
Answer The quick answer is ....No I am sorry I can't.
I would say you need to look on the stock to see who issued it and start your research there. You really need a stock broker for this and someone hopefully affiliated with the original issuer.
I assumed you have "Googled" all the relavent people and names?
I deal with privately held comapnies where the stocks are owned by ..at most a handfull of family memebers. I have no resources for locating something of this nature.
That does not mean it can't be done.
Please keep me posted and if you find someone who can do it, let me know Thank You
