Focus on level of experience and commercial knowledge. Deep understanding coupled with great problem solving and critical thinking contributes to successful, smooth-running sales.

Look for rigorous researchers, financial analysts, and powerful negotiators that make sure no stone is left unturned to get you the best possible results from a sale.

Expect full transparency, regular updates, clear processes, realistic milestones, and communicators that command a room to deliver accurate, poignant information during those crucial presentations.

For a partner, the best part of selling a business is getting to know the owner and their business to find a buyer who’ll look after its future. That takes time, patience, and inquisitiveness.

Happy customers
“Thank you for helping me and my partners when we sold our business. If you repeat the success we had under your leadership, which I am certain you will do, you and your clients will both be extremely successful going forward. I believe due to your personal efforts, we received 25 to 50% more for our business than we would have otherwise. The process you laid out and the effort you expended, along with your professional attitude and personality kept the discussions going with multiple suitors, even with some very difficult and tough negotiators.”

“When we met I was obviously impressed with the list of successful and well-known companies you had already represented but what impressed more was the clarity of your description on what was realistic, what was going to be required in terms of work from my-side but also the detailed and personal input you would provide in terms of putting together the sales prospectus, seeking interest from the market, introducing me to the legal team and then attending each and every sales presentation to guide me through what was obviously going to be quite a stressful process.”
