Getting Started: Your StreetSmart Valuation

Before you decide to sell, you deserve clarity. Our first step in the StreetSmart Exit process is giving you a market-informed valuation and a clear path forward, so that when you’re ready, you can sell with confidence, protect your legacy, and command the strongest price possible.

Once we have your initial documents, this process typically takes less than two weeks from start to finish.
Phase 1: Understand & Gather Data

We start by learning about your business, your industry, and your goals. Through our confidential intake call, discovery meeting, and review of your documents, we prepare to value your business based on real-world market conditions - not just numbers in a database.
Phase 2: Analyze & Value

Our team digs into your financials, adjusting for the true earning power of your business. We benchmark against actual transactions in your space and use our experience to identify opportunities that could increase value. Every valuation is vetted internally for accuracy before it’s presented to you.
Phase 3: Review & Decide

We walk you through your StreetSmart Valuation, explain our methodology in plain language, and answer every question. From there, you can decide whether to start the sale process now, prepare for a future exit, or simply hold until the timing is right. Either way, you’ll know your numbers and your options.

Professional Presentation Materials

High-value buyers expect more than numbers. They want a clear, compelling story about why your business is a rare opportunity.

Before we take your business to market, we create a StreetSmart Marketing Package that:

  • Tells the authentic story of your business, your team, and your legacy.
  • Showcases your financial strength and growth potential with clarity.
  • Stands up to the most sophisticated buyers and their capital partners, because we build it to be best-in-class.

Whether you’re thinking about selling now or years down the road, knowing your true market value is the first step toward a successful exit.

Through our StreetSmart Valuation, we:

    • Deliver a market-informed range based on real transaction data in your industry.
    • Identify opportunities to improve value before you go to market.
    • Give you a clear, plain-language explanation so you understand exactly where the numbers come from.

Industry & Size Expertise

We are selective about the companies we represent, focusing on established businesses in essential industries with $5M–$50M in revenue. By working only in sectors we know well, we connect you with advisors who understand your market, speak your industry’s language, and know the buyers most likely to pay a premium.

Aligned Compensation

We begin with a professional valuation to set the stage for your sale, with the vast majority of our compensation earned only when your deal closes. This keeps us fully aligned with your goals and fiercely focused on maximizing your outcome.

Worldwide Buyer Reach

We combine deep industry databases, proprietary research, and our professional network to build a targeted list of vetted buyers, such as private equity groups, strategic acquirers, and high-net-worth individuals, across the country and around the globe. Your business is marketed confidentially to only the right prospects, never blasted to the masses.

Professional Network

Over hundreds of transactions, we’ve built trusted relationships with transaction attorneys, tax advisors, accountants, and lenders who understand lower middle market deals. The right specialists can save you time, reduce risk, and add thousands, sometimes even millions, to your net proceeds.

Ongoing Education

Our advisors are more than dealmakers. They are business strategists with backgrounds in finance, marketing, operations, and negotiations. We invest in continuous training so you benefit from the latest strategies, market insights, and proven tactics to get your deal across the finish line.

Data Privacy & Security

Protecting your confidentiality is not just a step in the process. It is built into everything we do. We use secure virtual data rooms, encrypted communications, and strict vetting to keep sensitive financial and operational details safe from competitors, employees, and unqualified buyers.
