Investors seek more than just your financial metrics The real value? Your qualitative story Financials are the picture of today and yesterday. The qualitative story tells the future Where have you been and what can you achieve? Focus on painting a picture not just for now…
“Should I sell to a strategic or a PE firm?” I get this question all the time, and the answer isn’t one-size-fits-all. Both can lead to a solid exit. But the experience, deal structure, and what comes after? Totally different. Here’s how it breaks down: ❗Strategic Buyers…
Great businesses don’t chase buyers. The best time to sell your business isn’t when you get your first good offer. It’s when you’re holding the leverage. Buyers aren’t just buying what you’ve built today. They’re buying the momentum, the consistency, and the relationships that…
The human side of business acquisitions is critical. Employees can make or break a transition. From staggered announcements to clean slates, every strategy has risks. Empathy + decisiveness = success. We've come across three options for employee transitions: Option 1:…
Tire & auto owners: we’re grinders, desk bound, scarfing fast food, always on. I’ve done it too and happens to me even now. But low energy & tight pants hurt more than your body, they dull your business edge. I’ve seen clients sell due to health crises. Don’t let that be you. A…

Sell your company without walking away. Private equity loves minority rollovers and many times requires it. Sell 100%, then reinvest 30% back to ride the next growth wave. The Second exit can multiply your first win. Although you’ll have less control, you’ll have leveraged…
Owner dependence is one of the most common (and costly) killers of valuation. I see it all the time. The founder is the rainmaker, the decision-maker, the glue holding everything together. Impressive? Absolutely. But to a buyer, that’s a big risk. If your business can’t…
