Process

The founder-friendly path

We try to keep it simple: we’ll quickly assess whether we want to make an offer, avoid unnecessary hurdles or information requests during diligence, and offer a cash payment at closing. We’re not here to lock you into running a business you don’t want to participate in, but we’d love to have you stay at the helm and grow together. If you’ve created the best job you’ve ever had, you might as well keep it. 🙂

After closing, it’s simple: keep running your fantastic business. No integration process, team restructuring, new OKRs, nada. Once we’re in, we’re in for the long term.

What the process looks like

How do we move from point A to point B? As quickly as clearly as we can together.

Decide

We aim to make a decision on whether or not we’ll make an offer within 2-3 weeks. We’ll probably need to ask follow up questions after our first chat.

Offer

We’ll send over a letter of intent [LOI] to outline the basics of the deal, like cash consideration or any terms. We keep this as short and clear as possible.

Diligence

We’ll make requests to validate business metrics and assess risk — we don’t ask for more than we need, and won’t surround you in legalese to sift through.

Closing

Within 1-2 months, we’ll complete diligence and close, offering a straight-forward cash payment.

Run the business

That’s really it. Now we continue with business-as-usual — keep the positive culture and serve customers well.

Know someone who fits?

We’ll pay a finder’s fee for any deal you refer to us! Any personal introduction to a fantastic business will do.
