We invest alongside entrepreneurs acquiring reliably profitable niche businesses in growing markets to take advantage of the target business’ long history of success and profitability. Most of our entrepeneur partners are actively seeking out a private business to acquire and grow that matches their investing and operating strategy. Most often the target companies being acquired are run by their founders or long time operators looking to exit in order to retire or move. We help these entrepreneurs structure their acquisition, transition ownership, and execute a growth plan by positioning the business in faster growing segments, modernizing operations, and attracting new talent. We are active contributors to the entire process of finding, acquiring, transitioning, and growing a business. The syndicate invests at the acquisition stage, providing the investment capital necessary to ensure the venture can start out profitable from the day the deal closes.
We've built a strong reputation in the small business and search fund communities as an investor, advisor, and owner-operator. We've spent the last several years building an own-operate portfolio and have reinvested surplus cash flow into an LP portfolio of businesses led by entrepreneurs running the same acquire, modernize, grow playbook. We have far more high quality deal flow than we could possibly fund alone. Rather than raise a committed fund, we'd rather handle these deal by deal to construct a deal-appropriate LP network for each entrepreneur and opportunity.
