Seller FAQ

Straight answers to the questions owners ask us most. If yours isn't here, we welcome a confidential conversation.

What types of businesses do you acquire?

We focus on well-established, founder-led B2B professional services businesses in the United States, typically with $750K–$3M in EBITDA. For exceptional businesses, we go higher. We have flexible capital with no maximum deal size.

We look for an operating history of 10+ years, long-term customer relationships with repeatable revenue, opportunities to scale, and an owner with integrity and a values-driven culture.

How long does the process take?

It depends on the business and your goals, but we move quickly. Our process runs from an introductory meeting through an initial review, a Letter of Intent, confirmatory diligence, and closing, and we do the majority of the work ourselves.

Most transactions of this size close within a few months of a signed LOI. We will give you a realistic timeline early in our process, and we keep you informed at every step so you are never left guessing.

Will my employees keep their jobs?

Yes, we fully intend to keep your team in place. We're buying this business to own, operate, and grow it, not to cut it down. The people who helped build it are central to its continued success, and continuity for your employees is a core part of how we operate.

Do I need a broker to talk to you?

No. Many owners come to us directly, and we are happy to have a confidential conversation with you one-on-one. If you already work with a broker or advisor, we are equally glad to work alongside them. We welcome conversations with owners, brokers, and advisors alike.

Is it really a 100% cash deal?

Yes. A 100% cash deal is available for the right opportunities, meaning you receive your sale proceeds at closing rather than waiting on earnouts or extended seller financing.

That said, every owner's goals are different, so we also offer flexible structures tailored to what you want from the transition. We will walk you through the options openly so you can choose what fits.

How do you determine what my business is worth?

Valuation for businesses like yours is typically based on a multiple of EBITDA, adjusted for factors such as growth, customer concentration, recurring revenue, and the strength of your team and systems.

We lead with transparency: after an initial review of your operations and financials, we will share how we arrived at our number rather than handing you a figure with no explanation.

How do you keep the process confidential?

Confidentiality protects your employees, customers, and negotiating position, and we treat it accordingly. We are glad to sign a non-disclosure agreement before reviewing any sensitive information, we limit who is involved at each stage, and we design the process to have minimal impact on owners, employees, and customers.

You decide when and how your team learns about the transition, and we plan that communication together.

Will I need to stay on after the sale?

We structure a phased transition plan with a clear handoff period, shaped around your goals. Some owners prefer a short handoff measured in weeks; others choose to stay involved longer to see the next chapter begin.

Either way, the plan is agreed before closing so there are no surprises for you or your team.

How are you different from private equity?

We are buying businesses to own, operate, and grow them, not to financially engineer a quick resale. Our goal is to create long-term value for each company, its team, and its customers, and to preserve the legacy you have built.

We also believe in more than just closing a deal. Doing right by people, starting with the owner and extending to employees and customers, shapes every conversation and decision.

What information will you ask for, and when?

We keep early requests light. The introductory meeting is simply about you, your goals, and your business. For the initial review, we ask for a high-level picture of your operations and financials. Deeper, confirmatory diligence happens only after a Letter of Intent is signed, and even then we keep requests thoughtful and respectful of your time.
