At Caenen Lake Advisors, it costs you absolutely nothing to begin the process of selling your business. We believe in a success-based approach, so the only time a well-qualified client pays for our services is when we bring them an offer for their business that they choose to accept. This ensures that our interests are fully aligned with yours throughout the entire process.

A 'well-qualified' client is one whose business is financially stable and ready to sell. Additionally, we require the business owner to fully cooperate with our information requests in a timely manner. Lastly, it's important that the client's valuation expectations align with the true market value of their business. This ensures a smooth and successful selling process for everyone involved.

We go above and beyond to ensure that the partnership is right for both parties. We meticulously vet potential buyers and sellers to align their goals, values, and visions for the future. Through comprehensive due diligence, personalized matchmaking, and facilitated meetings, we create a foundation of trust and transparency.

Our fees on a case-by-case basis to ensure fairness for all parties involved. We carefully consider factors such as the size of the expected transaction, the amount of work anticipated, and any necessary travel related to your business. Additionally, we take into account the specific industry in which your business operates. By working closely with you, we ensure that our fee structure is transparent and mutually beneficial.

Our founders at Caenen Lake Advisors bring over 10 years of combined experience in sell-side M&A advisory. They have been involved in more than $250 million worth of transaction value and have successfully completed over 10 deals in the past 4 years alone. Throughout this time, we have cultivated extensive contacts within the private equity industry, giving us a deep understanding of who to approach for any type of business. This experience and network enable us to navigate the M&A landscape effectively, ensuring our clients receive the best possible outcomes.

The timeline for selling a business varies greatly depending on several factors, so every situation is different. At Caenen Lake Advisors, we want to ensure that business owners understand that while we are committed to moving the process forward efficiently, we have no control over the speed at which a transaction occurs, as it depends on the cooperation of all parties involved. To help expedite the process, we expect our clients to provide all necessary information promptly and to make themselves available for meetings with prospective buyers when we arrange them. By working together and staying responsive, we can ensure the process moves as quickly as possible.
