Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions from owners.

How do you find potential buyers?

We maintain relationships with private equity firms and strategic acquirers that are actively investing. We filter by sector, size, and mandate so conversations are relevant from the start.

Is my information kept private?

Yes. We never share your company name or sensitive details without consent. When appropriate, we use NDAs before exchanging information.

Do you work with all industries?

Yes, we work with businesses across a wide range of industries. While we have particular expertise in sectors with steady acquisition demand like IT and business services, software and SaaS, healthcare services, and specialty manufacturing, we're open to working with any industry where there's a viable market for acquisitions. Our approach is to evaluate each opportunity individually based on the business fundamentals, market conditions, and buyer interest rather than limiting ourselves to specific sectors. If you have a business in an industry not mentioned here, we'd be happy to discuss how we can help you find the right buyer or investor.

What happens after an introduction?

You and the buyer take the lead on diligence, terms, and closing with your advisors. We remain available to keep communication clear and momentum strong.
