Valufinder Group provides middle market M&A advisory and strategic acquisition services to proactive buyers seeking proprietary deal flow.
You own a successful company and want to take it to the next level through strategic acquisitions.
You’re partnering with a senior industry executive and want to acquire the right platform company to leverage their expertise.
You have a convincing story to tell, but so do countless other buyers.
Success in a highly competitive market requires a professional, systematic approach to buy-side acquisition services, supported by a buyer’s presentation that resonates with business owners as both a legitimate and rational inquiry. It requires a presentation that captures the owner’s attention and compels them to stop, listen, and even if they are not immediately interested, to speak with you to learn more about your acquisition opportunity.
“I feel that Valufinder is part of my own organization! They listen to our acquisition needs and provide us with unique, original opportunities that are qualified and then present information on the prospect without the fluff. They are always there to help. I would recommend them as one of the top intermediaries in the country and truly value our relationship.”
“For over a decade, Valufinder has consistently done a tremendous job of introducing us to quality companies in a variety of industries. We truly value their business development capabilities and look forward to closing more deals with them in the future.”
“Valufinder identified and reached out to organizations we never even thought about as potential sellers. They introduced us to several excellent companies that as far as I knew had not been on the market. Valufinder found the right company for us and assisted us in completing the transaction. The acquisition lifted our company to the next level. We appreciate their help and responsiveness and look forward to doing more deals with them.”
“One of my partners announced that he desired to exit the business and return to New Zealand. We decided to investigate the possibility of selling the business and responded to an inquiry from Valufinder. Many companies expressed interest in purchasing PDQ. However, Valufinder listened to what we were looking for and then found the right buyer for us. The PDQ management team selected Valufinder’s client, the Dover Corporation because of its commitment to leave the management team in place and allow the company to continue to operate autonomously. Without Valufinder, we never would have found Dover.”
“It is always a pleasure to work with the Valufinder team. Valufinder brings the highest levels of responsiveness and professionalism to every situation. Their hard work is reflected in their long tenure in the industry and excellent reputation they have within our firm.”
“I had already started the process to sell my company when Valufinder introduced me to one of their clients, the Triumph Group. Valufinder quickly arranged for the exchange of materials and made sure my information got into the hands of the buyer’s president, the ultimate decision maker. Valufinder then assisted both sides in moving the deal forward and reaching a successful closing.”
“When our group began to investigate a rollup in an out-of-favor industry, we sought the assistance of Valufinder who had been providing us with exceptional deal flow for many years. Valufinder’s team unrolled a multifaceted plan, which quickly achieved the results we sought. Their ability to mobilize their in-house team for a targeted program was remarkable.”
“Valufinder’s dedication to delivering results is evident in every aspect of their work. Their thorough and well-defined process, along with a professional and persistent team, has played an important role in our pursuit of add-on acquisitions. We appreciate their commitment to our goals and the expertise they bring to each transaction.”
“Valufinder’s ongoing support in our HVAC acquisition strategy has been outstanding. Their team’s ability to understand our specific needs and execute a well-structured search has resulted in the discovery of valuable opportunities. The professionalism and dedication of Valufinder have ensured that each step of the process is handled with care, making them an important partner in our expansion efforts.”
“Valufinder’s advisory services have exceeded our expectations at every turn. Their structured and strategic approach to acquisitions, supported by a highly skilled and determined team, has led to a series of successful transactions that have bolstered our portfolio. We appreciate their professionalism and deep expertise, which have made them a vital partner in our growth journey.”
Reliance on incoming calls, auctions, or non-exclusive deal offerings will often result in missed deal opportunities and/or higher prices. Valufinder’s DealStar process leverages the expertise of our deal professionals, researchers, and marketing specialists who work together on a Buyer’s behalf to create a proactive custom outreach program that contacts the universe of companies who match a Buyer’s criteria and ensures that our client remains top of mind with high-interest targets. When those Owners begin thinking about selling, our client typically has the first and exclusive introduction call.
As an experienced acquisition search firm, Valufinder developed both the DealStar Acquisition Search Process and its sister program, Deal Mulligans, to help proactive Buyers achieve their acquisition goals. Both programs are designed to assist Buyers in connecting with pre-vetted, potential platform and add-on targets that match their specific acquisition criteria on an exclusive basis, thereby avoiding competitive auction processes and their higher prices.
