We work the
buy-side too.
Private equity firms, family offices, strategic acquirers: here is how we work with you.
Sell-side advisory is our core, but it is not the whole picture. We partner with private equity firms, family offices, and strategic acquirers on buy-side mandates, bringing the same sector depth and direct, principal-led execution to the other side of the table.
And for owners: if a full sale process is not the right fit for you, we can run a quieter path, working exclusively with a select buyer we trust. In that arrangement the buyer pays our fee. You pay nothing. We will usually tell you a competitive process gets the better number, but the right answer depends on your situation, and we start by listening.
Buy-Side Mandates
Targeted acquisition searches for PE firms and strategics with a clear thesis. We source, approach, and qualify founder-owned businesses that never reach a banker's process.
Proprietary Deal Flow
Our podcast, our network, and our own AI-driven sourcing tools put us in front of owners years before they would otherwise come to market. We work closely with acquirers like Springdale Industries, and if you invest in our sectors, we should know each other.
Exclusive Owner Introductions
When an owner prefers a single trusted counterparty over a broad process, we make the match and manage the transaction end to end, with the buyer covering our fee.
Sector Intelligence
Real-time perspective on valuations, buyer behavior, and deal terms in early childhood education, business services, and industrials.
