Acquiring an established business is a strategic approach that business owners can leverage to attain diverse benefits. It allows for expanding your business’ reach and capabilities, access to new markets and customer bases, diversifying operations to mitigate risks and creating synergy opportunities. However, it is challenging to determine where to begin. How do you find businesses that fit your criteria?

Acquisition Partners has facilitated hundreds of transactions over the years and has developed a strategic buy-side search process that finds our clients qualified matches for their business based on their acquisition criteria.

Our engagements are success-based, non-exclusive arrangements to provide acquisition assistance. We develop a partnership in the following ways:

  • We begin the process by examining our client directives, industry trends, research, and investment criteria (EBITDA, geography, industry, technology, etc.). We will then coordinate a buy-side search to find businesses that meet our client’s acquisition criteria. Once targets are identified, we’ll approach businesses that fit the desired profile.

  • We present a detailed company overview of the potential seller. Our team may have multiple discussions with a potential seller to be sure we are presenting an accurate view of the acquisition candidate

  • Lastly, we will obtain signed Confidentiality Agreements and make high-level introductions between the client and the seller.
