The future of buyer selection.
Historically speaking, there has been no single source of information where sellers could search the buyers that exist. Thus, firms seeking to partner via acquisition were forced to use a DIY approach or hire sell-side advisors who focus on valuation over culture; the legacy pathways topartnership are slow, expensive, and frankly broken.

In fact, that's a common sentiment. Many firms that engage with our process are still determining if the timing is right for them. We recognize that you might be open to exploration but might not be prepared to finalize a transaction. That's perfectly fine. We believe that by navigating the initial stages of our process, you'll gain significant insights and value. So, when the moment is right, we're confident you'll reach out to us.
It starts with the most comprehensive structured buyerintelligence in the country. Every buyer under goes a meticulous 30-50 hour onboarding process, where we delve deep into essential details about their business, acquisition model, and culture. All of it is integrated into the Lens application. When you set your preferences and priorities in Lens, it evaluates your compatibility across nine key areas of alignment and surfaces the buyers who genuinely fit. That's the technical precision. But data alone can't capture the human nuances in a deal, so our seasoned M&A experts collaborate closely with you, leveraging insights from 100+ closed acquisitions, to make sure the match is right.
The duration largely hinges on your availability and how organized your data is. On average, the entire process spans 5-8 months from our initial conversation to the day you integrate with your new partner's team. If time is pressing, we can expedite the process. Conversely, it might extend if we deviate from the planned cadence.
Primarily, it's how we think about buyer selection. Applied Buyer Intelligence prioritizes cultural fit in screening buyers. Most sell-side advisors run a financial auction in which buyers are screened purely on their economic offer to you. Valuation and terms are a significant priority; however, eliminating buyers on math alone, ahead of culture, is a bad idea. We think the only firms who should participate in the competitive bid process are those who are cultural fits. Would you really sell to a higher bidder that was a disaster for your team and clients? Of course not. The reason we can do this is that we have invested the time to learn the buyer models. No one else in the industry has done this. Each buyer on our roster committed to spending the time to educate us on every aspect of the firm: values, economic offer, and advisor value proposition. Armed with this knowledge, we zero in on the buyers who genuinely fit.
