3 Basics Steps To His Success
Many clients, when considering an exit, have a difficult time with confidentiality due to employees, competitors and customer concerns. C approaches every transaction with the utmost level of confidentiality. From the due diligence process, all the way till the transaction is closed, he will make every attempt to keep the process as confidential as possible.
There are many steps to any M&A transaction which leads to many deals falling apart. However, when C agrees to work with a client he will work only with that "one" client. He believes in 100% attention to all of his clients, small and large alike. Also, he will personally oversee the assembly of a team to make the transaction as smooth as possible.
C has worked with exclusive acquiring clients in the private equity industry, the venture capital field, the family office space and UHNWI. His target range for most acquisitions is $20MM - $400MM. Target evaluations can happen within weeks of an introduction, where little time is demanded on the seller's end with no business interruption or interference.
Being an exclusive representative for his clients means that C allocates all of his services to "one" client at a time. He feels that this level of personal service to representation is warranted considering the many different elements to the process. Knowing that the auctioning platform attracts many financial and strategic buyers, C attempts to bypass this very competitive process and position his exclusive clients to be a top acquiring candidate for "off-market" targets.
