If your company is looking to grow through M&A, working with an experienced buy-side advisor can help you achieve your acquisition goals quicker than trying to do it alone. It can be a tedious process that requires time-consuming research, persistence, and patience.
Before engaging a buy-side advisor, it is critical to identify the ideal acquisition criteria for target companies. This saves time and allows us to focus our efforts on the best companies that achieve your goals and objectives. Laying out a strategy and determining a clear-cut acquisition criteria is also important because you don’t want to earn the reputation as a “tire kicker,” which could be viewed negatively by other future acquisition targets. It also allows buy-side advisors to lay out a clear vision and discuss specific points of how you (the buyer) can add value to the target company through an acquisition.
When you engage BAMA on the buy-side, our team works with you to understand your target criteria including the ideal size, mix of business, geography, cashflow thresholds, etc. Our experienced buy-side team will uncover many qualified targets and will rely on our proven process to generate results for your desired outcome. BAMA also relies on a proven marketing strategy and manages all of the outbound marketing utilizing a variety of outreach efforts. To further manage your time, BAMA takes the first call with the target to vet fit. From there, we will connect you with the target and will work with you all the way through closing the deal.
