Buy-Side Advisory Services

A company and management team will often have a specific target identified that they would like to pursue, but cannot do it directly because of competitive sensitivities or simply the available time, manpower or expertise to confidently and appropriately execute on the deal. As an experienced, independent third party, Founders will work with management to (1) establish a unique and well-crafted approach strategy, (2) build a rationalization for the sale/combination from the target's perspective, (3) craft the materials needed to appropriately evaluate and educate the specific target on the opportunity and, of course, (4) make the approach, conduct negotiations and achieve a definitive outcome. Throughout this process, Founders will act as a trusted adviser and offer proven strategies on how to capitalize on the opportunity and secure the price and structure that will result in immediate value creation.

Ultimately, our approach is to apply our transaction experience, creativity and expertise in a collaborative effort with our client to shape the most viable solution and drive to a successful outcome.
