Our process confidentially markets your business to hundreds of buyers including entrepreneurs, private equity firms, search funds, and other MSP's, VAR's, and Systems Integrators.
Valuations
The first question that we get asked by business owners is almost always about valuation. In the IT Services business, that's usually a multiple of adjusted EBITDA. The multiple varies based on a number of factors including things like monthly recurring revenue, the concentration of revenue among clients, the degree to which business operations are reliant on the owner, and much more.
​
Each MSP is unique and it's our job to identify hidden value in your business that will make it as attractive as possible to potential buyers
