Founders care about more than the price. They care about their team, their customers, and what happens next. We protect what you built and help carry it forward, not tear it down.

Most acquirers plan to exit in five years. We don’t. With permanent capital, we invest in long-term growth, not quick flips. That means more time to scale, more focus on product, and more stability for your team. Curious what that looks like? Contact us -> [email protected]

After speaking with 100+ founders, we’ve learned this: the biggest factor in a good exit isn’t the price, it’s clarity. Clear timelines, clear roles post-sale, and clear communication make the difference between regret and relief. If you’re considering a sale, we can help you!

We don’t buy to flip. When founders sell to short-term buyers, the focus shifts to cost cuts and quick returns. We take the opposite approach. Long-term alignment, steady growth, and a process that respects what you built. If you're considering next steps, contact us!

Strong companies aren’t just built on spreadsheets. They’re built on people. We evaluate team, values, and customer loyalty just as much as the numbers. Culture is what drives long term outcomes.

What does it mean to sell your company? Selling is rarely walking away. It often means reshaping your role. Some founders stay, some hand off, others step back. The best exits fit the founder and the business. We help define that path before any deal so post-close feels steady.

Revenue vs EBITDA Revenue shows size of the opportunity. EBITDA shows how well you manage it. Buyers look at both. Clarity matters more than perfection. If you can explain your numbers and strategy, buyers will listen. SEG SaaS Index: profitable firms got 22% higher valuations.

We acquire to own forever. That changes how we invest, build, and show up for the team. Quick flips mean short-term thinking. Long-term ownership builds trust and better decisions. These are real businesses with people who count on them. Our job is to keep that.🤝

What buyers care about Buyers don’t only care about size or profit. They want to know why customers stay, how the team functions, and what happens when things break. The numbers matter, but so does what’s behind them. Show how your business runs and it goes a long way.

Lessons from 100+ founder conversations💬🗨️ Themes repeat. Founders want clarity on their role after the sale. They want their team looked after. They want their work respected. Our approach: build trust, communicate early, focus on continuity not control.

What happens after you sell? Best outcomes share traits: founder’s role defined, team knows what to expect, no major shifts too soon. Some sellers stay with rollover equity. Others want a clean break due to personal reasons. We plan around both to make transitions clear& steady.

The first 100 days after acquisition We focus on listening to team leads, stabilizing operations, building trust, aligning priorities, and clear communication. We avoid rushing to change. The goal: adjust without losing momentum and keep what works before moving forward.

People and culture matter more than IRR‼️ Returns matter, but culture drives lasting results. Strong companies have clear decisions, resilient teams, and focused leaders. We spend time understanding how a company works. Culture is the lifeblood, and we work to keep it intact.
