PROCESS
Step 1
get in touch
The information you share is always confidential. In the initial conversation, we’ll talk at a high level about your business and your goals, explore the opportunity and see if it is a good fit for both parties.
Step 2
Deeper Understanding + Letter of Intent
During this process, we may request additional information about the company. If we are interested in moving forward, we’ll submit a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) that lays out the key terms of our partnership.
Step 3
Diligence and Close
After an LOI is signed, we start the legal documentation process. During this time, we will also continue to learn more about the business and complete our final diligence.
On the day of closing, we will sign final docs, wire you funds, and celebrate together!
