FAQs

We usually buy 100% of the company. Sometimes, we offer owners the chance to keep some equity to grow alongside us, but most deals are for 100% of the shares.

If we both parties agree to move forwards, by working collaboratively we can usually wrap things up in about 90 days.

We don’t force businesses to merge if it doesn’t make sense. Most companies we buy keep running on their own, with their own teams and customers.

We mostly look for Technology Services businesses that make money from repeat customers. That said, we’re open to speaking to any owners in the MSP space should they have a genuine interest of selling their company.
