Selling your software company is probably the most important business transaction of your life. You deserve an experienced team who is dedicated to your success, provides unbiased advice, and is more concerned about your outcomes than their fees. You deserve SEG!
Broad Process
Most clients choose to run a broad process, so they have full support during the entire M&A transaction. This starts with analyzing the market and business, creatively positioning their company to broad array of highly curated buyers, driving a competitive environment, negotiating a great transaction at maximum value, and navigating them successfully through any mishaps.
Get StartedTargeted Strategic Process
In a targeted strategic process, we help entrepreneurs reach out to fewer, hand-picked potential buyers. This is ideal for software companies that already have existing offers and want to create a competitive environment to maximize purchase price and options.
Direct
Negotiation
Experience is often what wins during M&A negotiations. Buyers want to get the best deal, and they have experience and teams behind them working to make that happen. SEG’s strategic, direct negotiation services include negotiating on terms, price, and options to improve the outcome and provide you a high assurance of deal closure.
Due Diligence
If you have already agreed to price and terms with a buyer and would like to ensure the highest likelihood of close, SEG can help. We will manage this critical stage of the M&A process, including the multiple work streams and parties necessary to successfully navigate due diligence, allowing you to focus on running your business.
