Life After Acquisition
What happens the day after.
The question founders ask us most is not about price. It is what happens to the thing they built, and to the people who built it with them.
We buy businesses to run them. That means the brand stays, the product stays, and in most cases the team stays and gets more support than it had before. We are not buying a customer list to fold into something else.
Your own involvement is a choice, agreed in writing before completion. Some founders stay on and run the business with more resource behind them. Some consult for an agreed period. Some hand over and go. All three are fine, provided we plan for it up front rather than discover it afterwards.
- Kept and invested in, not absorbed
- Editorial and product voice retained
- Customers see continuity, not upheaval
- Roles reviewed with you, not around you
- Access to a larger commercial team
- Career paths beyond a small company
- Stay on, consult, or step away
- Involvement agreed in writing up front
- No open-ended obligations
Have a question about what happens after? Ask it before you tell us anything about the business.
