Our buyer-research software can identify and rank up to 100 potential buyers in moments using the public company information available to it. The initial list helps us explore potential fit systematically and bring relevant options into the conversation.
Charlie reviews the research against the business and its objectives. Public information varies in detail and recency, so we keep gaps visible and check relevant facts. A ranking is a research priority; buyer interest, funding and suitability still need to be established.
Discuss suitable corporate finance advisers and agree any buyer approach with the owner and appointed advisers. Confirm recipients and confidentiality arrangements before sharing sensitive information.
Keep next steps clear, record what has been agreed and involve the specialists responsible for the transaction. Our remuneration is payable only when a deal completes; the scope and payment arrangements are agreed in writing.
