The VIP Acquisitions Program

The VIP Acquisitions Program is for certified active buyers and private groups who are actively seeking targeted business opportunities and who are ready, willing, and able to engage with an advisor and make offers, perform due diligence, and buy a business. VIP Members are certified through Vequity, our buyer verification partner, and represent a premium class of buyer who has been vetted, validated, and verified to receive Vequity badge and special buyer profile and privileges.  The elite status of VIP Acquisition Program Members is a key component which allows us to attract business owners and open the doors for strategic and personable conversations about their exit plan and keeping the verified buyer front of mind.

The VIP Acquisitions Program’s service is based on a limited and nominal retainer which is credited to the Buyer at the time of closing (credit is limited not to exceed the Advisor’s success fee). This program typically takes 3-6 months to identify, prepare, and present opportunities and the retainer stops when an LOI, Term Sheet, or Purchase Agreement is signed. There are also post-acquisition advisory services available which are geared towards alignment of your acquisition with your goals, resources, and growth strategy.
