Thinking about selling your essential services business? Congrats—you’re about to take one of the biggest (and most rewarding) steps of your life.
But let’s be honest: the process sounds intimidating. CIMs, data rooms, LOIs, due diligence… it can feel like alphabet soup.
That’s why we’ve broken it all down into a clear, 180-day roadmap—with no fluff, just facts.
Here’s what to expect:
Days 1–14: Strategic Onboarding & Positioning
This is where we get to know your business inside and out—and craft a killer story around it. We’re not just listing what you do, we’re packaging your business like the rockstar it is. Buyers buy stories, not spreadsheets.
Days 15–45: CIM Development & Data Room Assembly
– Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM): The deck that makes investors say, “We want in.”
– Data Room: We build the secure vault of all your financials, contracts, and operational details.
Days 46–80: Targeted Marketing to Curated Buyers
No blast emails. No random tire-kickers. We run a sniper—not shotgun—process. We match your business with our proprietary list of thousands of strategic and PE buyers.
Days 81–90: Offer Review & Negotiation
This is where the magic happens. We walk you through multiple offers, explain the pros and cons, and negotiate for better terms.
Days 81–90: LOI Execution
You sign the Letter of Intent. It’s not the final deal, but it signals serious intent—and exclusivity.
Days 91–150: Buyer-Led Diligence & Quality of Earnings
Time for the buyer’s accountants and lawyers to dig in. We prep your data, help answer questions, and keep things moving. Think of us as your deal sherpa—we guide you up the mountain.
Days 151–180: Definitive Purchase Agreement & Closing
– Definitive Purchase Agreement (DPA): The final legal docs are drafted.
– Closing & Fund Disbursement: Pop the champagne. The wire hits your account, and you’re officially on to your next chapter.
TL;DR: From Idea to Exit in 120–180 Days
This isn’t some vague, multi-year saga. With our team and technology, most deals go from intro to cash in hand in 4–6 months. You stay focused on running your business—we handle the heavy lifting.
