We’ll help you tell your story
We recognise that this is your life’s work
We admire the sweat equity that successful founders have invested into their business and firmly believe that selling the business deserves the same level of thought.
E1 Advisory are proudly 100% founder-aligned, helping our clients think through their options clearly - whether now is the right time to go to market, which types of investors are the best fit, and what a realistic valuation range looks like.
How we can support you
-
We take founders through a financial due diligence “dry run” early in the process - helping surface risks, address them collaboratively, and avoid surprises later on. This also puts us in a strong position to manage the FDD workstream efficiently once a buyer is engaged.
Alongside this, we work with you to optimise value and deal structure - from up-front consideration through to earn-outs and other contingent components.
-
We have deep knowledge of, and access to, a broad range of investors across Europe, North America, and APAC — from serial software acquirers operating buy-and-hold models to lower mid-market private equity funds.
This breadth gives founders real optionality and a clear understanding of what each path entails.
-
M&A can quickly start to feel like a full-time job, often distracting founders from running the business - at the very moment performance matters most.
We manage the process end to end, from early preparation through to negotiations, so you can stay focused on operations while knowing the process is being handled thoughtfully and professionally.
