Our Process
Guiding service business owners through thoughtful exits — with calm process, strategic positioning, and real results.
1. Discovery & Fit Meeting
Every relationship starts with a confidential conversation to understand your long-term objectives and see if there's a fit.
2. Financial Review & Valuation
Historicals are reviewed and normalized to establish a defensible valuation and identify areas to spotlight in the transaction narrative.
3. Market Positioning & Materials
A tailored CIM and teaser are crafted to highlight not just the numbers — but what makes your business attractive to the right buyer.
4. Targeted Buyer Outreach
Focused outreach campaign targetted towards qualified strategic, financial, and franchise buyers — while maintaining full confidentiality.
5. Negotiation & Deal Structuring
All offers are negotiated with a clear-eyed attention to structure, working capital, earnouts, and certainty of close — not just headline price.
6. Diligence to Close
Support through diligence and closing, working alongside your legal and accounting team with hands on help to keep momentum and avoid surprises.
