INVESTMENT CRITERIA
Absolute Best at what you do
We are looking for small and medium businesses with exceptionally big moats. The world of business is intensely competitive whether you are large or small, and we are not interested in competing on the basis of lowest price. We are looking for businesses that are the absolute best at what they do and make their customers extremely happy. This will typically be indicated by organic sales growth, little to no spending on sales & marketing, and relatively high margins.
Has a Niche Market
The more specific your niche, the more excited we are. The longer you have built your brand and/or reputation, the stronger base we will have to work from.
Financial Performance
If you are the owner of a business in any sector with at least $250,000 in earnings, 50% gross margins and 20% or greater operating margins, and you believe you meet these criteria, we are interested in learning more about what you have built
We are very open to partnering with your management team to buy the business, or buying out one member of a partnership. We are comfortable with more complex situations.
Transforming businesses with hope and humanity.
We give companies a new life, new path, and new direction towards long-term success and solid ground.
Leading with heart yields high performance.
We're your trusted partner that sees the power and potential in big ideas, turning them from what could have been into what will be. We identify companies we see as strong and soulful, and we make them even better, particularly in times of uncertainty or distress.
We believe high performance and heart work together synonymously, an approach that allows us to thrive in scenarios that others might avoid.
We build because we love to.
Our passion is to uncover greatness. We show companies what was always there — the value, excitement, and opportunity that got buried in the crazy.
We are open to out-of-the-box deals because we think like founders, not bankers. We specialize in designing deals that creatively solve for the needs of all parties, and we will never waste your time in unnecessary diligence or bluster.
