Exit on your terms.
Sell-side M&A advisory for founders who've built something worth buying.
Most exits underperform. They don't have to.
The founders who get the best outcomes aren't lucky. They're prepared.
They understand their value—and can articulate it. They know who the right buyers are. They've structured the business to survive diligence. They control the timeline instead of reacting to it.
The founders who underperform waited too long, moved too fast, or worked with advisors who treated their business like a transaction instead of a life's work.
What We Actually Do
The Work Behind the Exit
Exit readiness isn't a single event. It's a series of deliberate improvements.
Operational Transferability
A business that can't run without you isn't a business—it's a job. We help you build the systems, team, and documentation that make the business transferable.
Make yourself optional.

What We Actually Do
The Work Behind the Exit
Exit readiness isn't a single event. It's a series of deliberate improvements that prepare your business for a successful transition.
Exit Readiness Assessment
We evaluate your business the way a buyer would. Where's the value? Where's the risk? What needs to change before you go to market?
Value Driver Development
Recurring revenue. Customer concentration. Founder dependency. Margin structure. We focus on the levers that actually move valuation.
Operational Transferability
A business that can't run without you isn't a business—it's a job. We help you build the systems, team, and documentation that make the business transferable.
Make yourself optional.
Timeline & Sequencing
Some fixes take six months. Some take three years. We help you prioritize based on when you want to exit and what will move the needle most.

What we don't do
We're selective. Here's why.
We're not a listing service. We don't take every mandate that walks in the door. When we take a mandate, we're committed.
- — Businesses under $1M in revenue
- — Founders who aren't serious about selling
- — Volume transactions
- — "List it and hope" engagements
- — Price shoppers
- — Owners not ready to actually let go

Timing
When to sell.
- The business runs without you day-to-day
- Revenue is stable or growing
- You've thought about what comes after
- You're more curious than anxious
- Revenue is inconsistent
- You're still essential to everything
- The books are messy
- You haven't told anyone yet
- Health crisis
- Partner conflict
- Market shift requiring quick exit
- Burnout at critical point
Wherever you are, we'll tell you honestly what timeline makes sense.
This is a partnership.
We don't take your business and disappear. You stay involved.
You know things about your business, your industry, and your relationships that we don't. A successful exit requires honesty—about the strengths, the weaknesses, and the things you'd rather not talk about.
The founders who do best in this process are engaged, responsive, and honest. If that's you, we'll get along fine.
Ready to start the conversation?
Not every founder is ready to sell. But if you've been thinking about it—seriously—we should talk.
Confidential. No obligation. Just an honest conversation about where you are.
