Why founders love us

quotemark quotemark

It's never an easy decision when a founder decides to sell their business. But when the time comes, Acquire is the ideal platform for profitable bootstrapped businesses. Gone are the days of working with expensive M&A firms. Acquire is easy, transparent, and supportive.

I worked with Ebony from Acquire. She was a great resource and helped us navigate the ups and downs of selling a business. Ultimately we received 7 offers before accepting a great cash deal.

This was our first acquisition, but the experience was amazing. The platform is super intuitive, and the team is so supportive and very proactive. We worked with Emiley, and she helped us a lot at every step. She always asked if everything was clear, how conversations were going, if we needed any help, shared materials, etc. She was just like a part of our team, really :)

Had a fast an easy transaction and most importantly, Acquire helped us find an ideal strategic buyer for our niche app.

The hands-on support from Emiley Noonan was unexpected (especially with experience on other platforms) and she was very knowledgeable, well-informed, supportive, and showed up to the call having actually spent some time going through our profile which made the whole thing a much better investment of time.

Would definitely recommend.

Acquire.com was a great experience. Ky Pratt was truly amazing to work with. They aren't just selling a service, they are good people and care about your outcome. I would highly recommend them because they have a simple toolset and process to follow that makes each step easily executable. They invested hours of time and countless resources to help us, and we had a great experience that I don't think we would have had anywhere else. If you are accepted on their platform, I would absolutely follow their process and take advantage of all the help they provide.

Acquire was instrumental in selling my SaaS business. I went out on my own at first to try to get offers without a broker, and I received 1 LOI. When I posted the business on Acquire, I got 6 LOIs, and I accepted an offer over asking. Selling a business is not easy, but if you are running a profitable, small SaaS business, there is no better place to sell it than Acquire. I had never sold a business before, and Emiley, one of their advisors, met with me at least 5 or 6 times through the process to advise me and support me to sell the business. They do a great job of getting the right eyeballs on your listing, crafting a process to build FOMO and drive up offers/offer price, and help you land the ship with a successful sale.

  • How Guided by Acquire works

    You’ll work with a dedicated in-house M&A advisor to sell your SaaS business for the highest price and friendliest terms. They’ll draft an acquisition plan, market your listing to our top buyers, and help you evaluate and negotiate acquisition offers (IOIs, LOIs, and APAs). Once you’re ready to move forward with a buyer, your advisor will then coach you through the remaining stages, including escrow and asset transfer, to close safely.
