TESTIMONIALS
In their words,
not ours.
On managing the process.
“When we started the sales process, it was like everyone else in the room understood what was going on, apart from me, so Leith M&A’s guidance was invaluable.”
“Having not been through this process before… Leith M&A absolutely delivered – always explaining in full the processes involved, fees applicable and next steps.”
“Leith M&A conducted a highly professional sale process that provided clear, comprehensive information throughout and facilitated efficient negotiations.”
“David and the team at Leith M&A are highly professional and safely guided us through the process of the sale. Nothing was too much trouble and they were always on hand.”
“They worked in a very diligent manner and were very thorough in the process and details of mergers and acquisitions.”
“Selling my business was a daunting task, but the hardest part was the unknowns. You don’t know what a buyer will ask, or what they think your weak points are.”
On matching buyers and sellers.
“David and his team did an excellent job in finding a buyer for my relatively small company, operating in a niche market. He searched worldwide for prospective buyers.”
“They identified, personally approached and arranged meetings with a range of potential buyers. We eventually received four offers.”
“Your approach was entirely hands on, finding the target market, seeking potential purchasers and seeing the whole process through to the happy conclusion.”
“We found a business that was not currently being marketed, but due to the friendly, professional approach devised by David and the team, it enabled discussions to take place that led to both parties agreeing sales/purchase.”
On negotiations and completion.
“He articulated our position and represented our shareholder interests very well during the negotiations which included an extended period of due diligence.”
“Their involvement in the deal was fundamental to the successful outcome and proved to be a great benefit to myself and my fellow Shareholder, Graham King.”
“A special thank you to David & his team at Leith M&A for their effort, advice, opinions & guidance during all the stages of negotiations.”
“His attention and focus on the major issues at hand helped to drive the parties to closure.”
“David secured us the very best deal and provided immeasurable support, for which we remain deeply grateful. We could not have done this without David and his team.”
On keeping things calm.
“Professionalism, courtesy and respect along with a very friendly and caring approach made the process easier, less stressful than it might have been, and ultimately with a very successful outcome.”
“David’s all-round experience and knowledge really helped us particularly when things got tough towards the end! He always remained calm and professional at all times.”
“Having David in our corner really made a huge difference and was genuinely the difference in keeping us sane, both the Founders and investors.”
“What had initially looked like a simple purchase turned out to be a complex operation with David performing as a conduit through which all interested parties could maintain a line of communication.”
“We are so grateful that you were there to guide us through with this sale and we are quite certain it wouldn’t have happened without Leith M&A.”
