Our Approach

A thoughtful process focused on finding the right fit.

Acquisition

Our Acquisition Philosophy

SBC Legacy Partners represents a team of experienced business professionals focused on acquiring and operating a single exceptional business. Unlike private equity firms that buy multiple companies or strategic buyers looking to absorb businesses into existing operations, we’re focused on finding and growing just one exceptional business for the long term.

Our team brings decades of combined experience across various industries, allowing us to provide both capital and operational expertise. We have the flexibility to structure deals that work for both parties without the pressure of artificial timelines or return expectations that often come with institutional investors.

Our approach is centered on:

Acquisition Criteria

What We're Looking For

We focus on businesses with these characteristics:

Business Type

Size and Performance

Qualitative Factors

Even if your business doesn’t perfectly match these criteria, we’re open to learning more about your unique situation.

Process

Our Process

Step 1

Initial Conversation

We’ll have an informal discussion to learn about your business and share more about our approach. This is a chance for both parties to determine if there might be a good fit.

Step 2

Information Exchange

If there’s mutual interest, we’ll sign a confidentiality agreement and request some basic information about your business to better understand its operations and performance.

Step 3

Letter of Intent

Based on our analysis, we’ll present a letter of intent outlining the proposed terms of the acquisition, including price, structure, and transition plan.

Step 4

Due Diligence

We conduct a thorough but respectful review of your business, focusing on understanding operations rather than just checking boxes.

Step 5

Closing

We work with experienced professionals to ensure a smooth closing process, typically 90-120 days from initial conversation.

Throughout this process, we prioritize clear communication, respect for confidentiality, and minimal disruption to your business operations.

Let's Start a Conversation

We’re always excited to talk with business owners about what makes their company special.
