Proven sales process for sustainable success
Succession, investment and co.: Every transaction is different – but our structured approach gives you security. We accompany you step by step through all phases – with a view to your individual goals, your company and your personal situation.
1. Strategy discussion & analysis
Together we define your goals – emotionally, strategically and economically. We analyze your company, identify strengths and challenges and develop a tailor-made sales strategy on this basis.
2. Preparation of documents & presentation
We prepare the documents in such a way that potential buyers immediately recognize the potential of your company – professionally, discreetly and precisely to the point.
3. Selecting and approaching potential buyers
Based on our experience and our network, we identify suitable investors – people or companies that fit you and your company both professionally and personally.
4. Letter of Intent (LOI) & negotiation preparation
If there is concrete interest, the prospective buyer draws up an LOI – a non-binding letter of intent containing the initial framework conditions for further negotiations. We carefully review the LOI together with you and, if necessary, renegotiate on your behalf in order to represent your interests in the best possible way.
5. Due Diligence & Exclusivity
Now it becomes concrete: the selected buyer gains an insight into your company and examines it mainly in the areas of finance, tax and law. We support you in mastering the due diligence process in a structured and confident manner.
6. Purchase agreement & conclusion
The company purchase agreement is drawn up on the basis of the negotiations. We assist you with all relevant issues – right up to the final signing and closing of the transaction.
