MSP Sales, Mergers and Acquisitions

Essential Resources For MSP M&A Plus Exit-Planning

The IT Managed service market is a particularly active marketspace. Recurring revenues and clients who tend to stick with entrenched suppliers means that acquisition is an effective and relatively risk-free way to grow a business.

In an active market, many deals are done “off market” where a discreet approach and informal discussion can pay dividends.

Proactive Business Search

If you are looking to grow your IT business and want to find businesses that would complement your current operations, we offer a proactive business search service (‘Business Finder’). We take a profile of your ideal target-business and actively search out candidate businesses for you. Working with partners, we can bring Commercial Finance, Legal and accountancy support for Due Diligence to ensure you make fully informed decisions.

Consultancy & Exit-Planning

If you are already engaged in the process of buying or selling a business, we offer specific advice through the process on a day rate basis. Negotiating the best price is always aided by the use of a third party working with both sides to find agreement.  With our specific industry knowledge, we can help you present your IT business in the best light, or if you are acquiring, ensure that through your due diligence you pay a fair price for what is on offer.

Further to this, at any stage of your journey, we feel that having an effective exit-strategy in place is essential. Who knows what life holds in store for any of us? Things happen and situations can change so whether you're looking to exit imminently or not for many years, we can help you ensure you have a plan in place that is appropriate for your needs.

MKLINK MSP Market Watch
