Middle Market Opportunities
Mid Market firms are usually acquired by other companies, funds or buyer groups with backing. Due to strategic business objectives driving the transaction, both the operating model and financial results change fundamentally for both buyer and seller (i.e. 1+1 = 3). When one company is buying all or part of another, Business Transition Specialists (BTS) provides merger & acquisition assistance helping manage the transaction while also helping define and guide integration.
Business opportunities are segmented by company size, value, scope of business operations as well as the nature and complexity of transaction. By most measures, mid-market firms are generally those with revenues between $5 million and $200 million. Because the pool of prospective buyers for mid-market firms is more easily identified, the approach to marketing the business for sale and engaging those buyers changes, relying less on mass advertising and more on discrete, high-level discussions between business owners and our principals. Correspondingly mid-market firms will not usually be shown here on our website. For ease of searching, those that are shown on the site are found here.
Call for more information about our services for mid-market firms including examples of completed transactions.
