I’ve lost count of how many founders have said to me, “I didn’t realize selling my business would be this intense.” And they’re absolutely right. It’s not just about the numbers or getting the deal done. There’s the uncertainty, the second-guessing and the late nights staring at "letter of intents" wondering if you’re making the right move. In those moments you need more than just an advisor, you need someone who truly gets it. An experienced M&A advisor isn’t just a financial expert they’re a sounding board, voice of reason, sometimes therapist. One founder told me, “I didn’t just need someone to review the financials. I needed someone to help me stay cool headed and navigate the process. Having an advisor who was genuinely in my corner made all the difference.” Selling your business can feel overwhelming but you don’t have to go through it alone. Get the right support and you won’t just have an advisor, you’ll have a partner, helping you succeed every step of the way. For the love of startups this is why @acquiredotcom exists!
