Disclosures and terms

Please read this before relying on anything you find on thejackpitts.com.

This is a personal website

I run this site personally. The views here are my own. It is not the website of Salt Creek Advisory or HelmIQ. Salt Creek Advisory's services are described on saltcreekadvisory.com, and HelmIQ's product is described on helmiq.net. Those sites and their own terms govern those businesses.

Not advice, not an offer

Everything on this site, including my writing, links to my Substack, and the podcasts, is general information. It is not investment, legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice. Nothing here is an offer to buy or sell any security or business, or a request for one.

Reading this site or contacting me does not make you a client of Salt Creek Advisory or create any advisory relationship. Salt Creek Advisory only represents an owner under a signed written agreement. Before making a decision about selling a business or investing, talk with your own attorney, accountant, and other advisors.

No promised results

Every business and every sale is different. Nothing on this site is a promise or prediction of any price, outcome, or closing.

Podcasts and guests

Guests on The Making Of Hosted by Jack Pitts and Lower Middle Market Brief speak for themselves. Mentioning a person, company, or deal on a podcast or on this site is not an endorsement or a recommendation. Deal and market information discussed on the podcasts may be incomplete or out of date.

Past employers

Former employers are named for background only. No affiliation or endorsement is implied, and work I did at prior jobs was not done by Salt Creek Advisory.

Accuracy and links

I try to keep this site accurate, but it may contain mistakes or information that has gone out of date. The site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, I'm not liable for losses that come from using it. Links to other websites are provided for convenience, and I'm not responsible for their content.

Ownership

The writing and photos on this site belong to me unless noted. Company names and logos belong to their owners.

Governing law

These terms and your use of this site are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois.
