Why Sell to Me? The Win-Win Deal Structure

Mar 10, 2024

I view acquiring a company as entering into a partnership. My goal is always a win-win deal where selling business owners can realize their financial goals through a customized structure, while I invest in taking the company to new heights.

Rather than dictate rigid terms, I innovatively craft deals to align with your specific needs. Some of the options I commonly utilize include:

Seller financing:

You carry back part of the sale price on flexible terms and collect interest income while often drastically reducing your tax burden and making a far larger consideration during the process.

Earn-outs:

You receive additional payouts based on the business hitting certain performance milestones after sale.

Deferred considerations:

Part of the payment is deferred and paid over an agreed timeframe.

Equity participation:

You retain partial ownership and participate in future growth.

Asset vs. stock sale:

We structure the deal to optimize tax treatment for your needs.

Contingent payments:

Additional compensation if certain conditions are met down the road.

The goal is providing maximum advantage to you through creative deal structuring, so you receive full value for all your years of effort while removing the pressures of business ownership.
