Hire the right M&A Advisor for your business

Finding the right M&A advisor, business broker, or investment bank to help you sell your business can be complicated, and the stakes are high.  Great M&A Advisors will really understand your business, your motivations, and how to put together a transaction with the right buyer.

Questions we can help with:

  • What M&A Advisors specialize in businesses like yours? (Industry, location, Revenue/EBITDA, growth rate, etc.)
  • What size M&A firm should you go with?  Someone local, regional, or national?
  • What are the key differentiators between different M&A Advisors?
  • What’s a “market rate” success fee for M&A Brokers?

We simplify the process and will help answer your questions along the way.  Our Owner Advisors can match you to preferred M&A Advisors in our network who we think will be a good fit for your company.

*Our Network includes over 1,000 M&A Advisors with different specializations.

Don’t just sign up with the first M&A Advisor you talk with or someone recommended by a friend in a different industry.  We can help you find the right M&A Advisor for your company - at no cost to you.
