Frequently asked questions

What size companies do you work with?

Most clients we serve generate over $10 million in revenue. We also advise smaller privately owned companies and startups, so tell us your numbers and we will say if we are a fit.

Which industries do you know well?

Manufacturing, construction, retail, professional services, technology, transportation and home services businesses.

Where do you work?

We are based in Charleston and Florence, South Carolina, and serve clients across South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida and Virginia.

How much does sell-side advisory cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your business and the scope of work. We scope it during your first conversation so you know what is included before you commit.

Are you a broker, lender or investor?

No. We are an advisory firm. We are not a lender and do not provide capital. We guide you on valuation, deal strategy, capital structuring and the transition.

I am not selling for a few years. Is it too early?

No. Early is often better. We can work on profitability, operations and risk now so the business is in stronger shape when you go to market.
