FAQs

Questions we answer before anything else.

How do I know if my business is ready to sell?

Consistent or growing revenue over three years, processes that do not depend solely on you, a diversified customer base, and clean financial records. The right time to start planning is two to three years before your target date.

What is the difference between a business broker and an M&A advisor?

A broker generally lists a business and looks for a buyer. An advisor prepares the business first, positions it to a specific buyer universe, and negotiates structure as well as price. The preparation is usually where the value shows up.

Who do you typically work with?

Privately held, often family-owned businesses in the lower middle market, generally $5M to $100M in revenue. In healthcare our focus is multi-location, multi-provider practices, though we work with individual practices from around $1.5M depending on specialty and situation.
