Addressing Concerns

Common Questions from Business Owners

Will you protect my employees?

Yes, we’re committed to retaining your team and preserving the culture you’ve built. We see your employees as the heart of the business and a crucial part of its success. Our goal is to provide stability and new opportunities for growth, not to make sweeping changes to the team.

Do you have the money?

Yes, we have committed capital from investors and lenders to ensure a smooth transaction without financing contingencies. We’re well-capitalized and prepared to move forward with the right opportunity. We can provide proof of funds and references from financial partners when appropriate.

What happens after I sell?

We’ll work together on a transition plan that meets your needs, whether that’s a clean exit, a gradual transition, or an ongoing role in the business. We recognize that every owner has different goals for their next chapter, and we’re flexible in accommodating those preferences while ensuring business continuity.

How will you maintain relationships with customers and vendors?

We understand that relationships are the foundation of any successful business. We’ll work closely with you during the transition to maintain these important connections, and we’re committed to upholding the level of service and reliability that your customers and vendors have come to expect.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the acquisition process take?

From initial conversation to closing, the process typically takes 90-120 days. We work efficiently while ensuring thorough due diligence and proper transaction structuring.

What types of businesses are you not interested in?

We typically avoid businesses that are heavily dependent on the owner, have significant customer concentration (more than 20% from a single customer), or operate in highly cyclical industries.

Will you change the company name or brand?

In most cases, we maintain the existing name and brand identity, especially if they carry strong recognition and goodwill in the market. Any changes would be carefully considered and implemented gradually

How do you value businesses?

We use standard valuation methodologies based on earnings, growth potential, industry multiples, and qualitative factors. We believe in fair market value that recognizes both the historical performance and future potential of the business.

What makes you different from private equity buyers?

Unlike private equity firms with 3-5 year investment horizons, we’re acquiring the business to own and operate it for the long term. This means we make decisions based on sustainable growth rather than quick returns, and we’re not looking to “flip” the business.
