Your roadmap to a successful exit
We work with established business owners who want to exit their company within the next 12 - 36 months.
These are typically founders who are running profitable businesses, with loyal customers and strong management teams in place.
They have proven they can sustain turbulent market conditions and now want to either exit their company entirely or work with equity partners for growth.
* Growth Stage SMEs
Size
Typically more than 20 f/t employees.
£2m+ in annual revenues
Industries
- Marketing, Media, PR, Advertising, SaaS & Technology enabled businesses
Common Challenges
1. The business has clearly demonstrated product-market fit but revenue growth is now flat or declining due to changes in their market or increased competition.
2. The business owners have a profitable, growing business but don't have sufficient revenue and EBIT to attract potential acquirers.
3) The business has experienced turbulent trading conditions and now needs financial support in order to continue trading.
Funding Stage
Bootstrapped with no VC or PE funding.
Our team has a deep understanding of these challenges, having led numerous successful businesses within these sectors and achieving £MM's in revenue and exit valuations.
Crucially, we know the exact steps that are needed to accelerate growth, systemise operations, and financially restructure a business for profitable, repeatable growth.
We can also leverage M&A strategies to increase shareholder value whilst building an ecosystem of synergistic businesses to drive additional revenue and reduce operating costs.
* Preparing for exit or founder succession
Common Challenges
The business has reached a mature level of revenue and EBIT but growth has plateaued and the founder is looking to either:
- Raise capital to scale beyond their existing limitations.
- Grow through M&A.
- Maximise exit valuations and find an acquirer.
Size
