you deserve.
We help B2B software founders achieve the outcomes that fairly reflect the sweat equity they’ve put in.
The M&A Challenge faced by Founders
Buyers Undervalue Your Business
Buyers focus on minimising risk and often overlook the strategic advantages, customer loyalty, and untapped potential of what you have built.
Earnouts Are Unachievable
Earnouts let buyers advertise attractive headline valuations while deferring payment. Unfortunately, most are never paid out as promised.
You'll Face M&A Professionals
Buyers have closed hundreds of deals. You're selling your life's work - likely for the first time. This experience imbalance may leave you exposed.
The result? Founders are leaving millions on the table.

“E1‘s understanding of our business from the outset was incredibly impressive. It gave us full confidence as we entered the process. We were particularly impressed with the M&A team’s mathematical approach. I would highly recommend and hope to work with Dan & team again in the future”
