We’re continuing our M&A Market Insights series with Part 4 of 6!

In this segment, Hannelore Jones and Max Friar shift the conversation squarely to how to evaluate different kinds of business buyers.

In this episode, Max and Hannelore break down how private equity (PE) has evolved in the lower middle market and the middle market over the years. Also, Max shares what business owners should understand when choosing between financial, strategic, and individual buyers.

Max shares his experience on how PE firms generally approach ownership, management retention, and growth. He also covers why strategics aren’t always the highest offer or best fit, and how legacy and autonomy factor into the right buyer decision.

Most buyers think the search starts when they get on the phone with an owner.

In reality, that’s often where buyers start making mistakes.

In our April update, Buy-Side Managing Director, Sam Scharich, shares how Calder prepares buyers before they ever talk to owners. From refining search criteria and building the buyer story to mock intro calls and first-impression coaching, we help our clients succeed in their search.
