Why Choose Amplify?
No matter what your transaction is, if you want to get the best outcome for your business, your stakeholders, you need to be prepared for the process. In a transaction, uncertainty can cost you time, energy, and most importantly, money. If you don’t know what a buyer is going to find when they crack open the books, what the bank is focused on when reviewing your loan application, what you should be worried about when you consider buying a competitor, you’re risking your deal.
We’ll help you get prepared – by taking a deep and detailed look at your business and helping you see what outsiders will see, what they’ll scrutinize, and what they’ll likely misunderstand. We’ll help you get the message across. Even if now is not the time for a transaction, don’t wait for an opportunity to arise before you start preparing. We’ll do more than just talk about it, we’ll put our experience to work for you so you’re ready.
We’ve worked with many different companies, from entrepreneur-owned businesses, to large, multinational public companies, and have helped with company sales, divestitures, acquisitions, capital raises, strategic reviews, across finance, strategy and operations. We can help your business get the best deal possible.
What else? We’re big music fans and Star Wars nerds. We love helping people and care about the little things, which is why we still listen to vinyl, read the liner notes, and play the best songs loud to drown out our terrible sing-alongs.
Amplify Consulting Services focuses on M&A for small businesses.
We’re an independent boutique advisory firm. We work a lot with family-owned and founder-owned businesses.
When you hear “M&A” you might have some thoughts about what that means. But we’re a little different.
We focus entirely on planning and preparation. We help you get Deal-Ready.
We’ve worked on hundreds of M&A deals - we’ve seen quite a lot. So we can help you at any step along the way - any point in the process. Whether you’re still in the early stages of thinking about your plan, or managing inbound calls from potential buyers, or deep in the process looking for some independent advice.
We’re not investment bankers (anymore). We’re not business brokers. We’re not accountants, we’re not exit planners. We work with those people where it makes sense, but our entire focus is on helping your business plan and prepare for M&A deals. We’ll help you develop your transaction plan, and get it rolling when you’re ready.
We come from bulge-bracket and boutique investment banks, Big 4 accounting firms, and entrepreneur-owned businesses. We’ll partner with you every step of the way so you can stay focused on your business while getting ready for the process.
That’s the Amplify advantage – we’ve sat across the table from (and alongside) all the parties in a deal process – bankers, lawyers, accountants, buyers and sellers (both large and small) and financing sources. We know what’s important to them – so we can get you prepared to achieve the best results.
