We're not just brokers.
We're operational partners for your business search, and we help you with the transition afterwards.
Supporting Your Search for an Acquisition
Traditional buyside brokerages offer limited value. They are incentivized for you to close on a business - whether it's good, bad, or in-between.
Our services look different. Here's the Legacy Mainstreet way:
During Your Search
Curated Deal Flow and Strategy Definition
We'll help you define your strategy, and work with you to source businesses that fit your acquisition criteria before they hit the market.
Hands on Screening and Advisory
We'll work with you to vet each opportunity to ensure strong financials, growth potential, and overall acquisition fit.
Diligence and Partner Support
We can connect buyers with lenders, diligence providers and alternative financing options in our LMS network. We'll then represent you during negotiations.
Pre-closing Transition
We help structure balanced deals, and transition support begins before we hit the closing table, starting with your 100-day takeover plan.
After You Close on a Business
Our partnership doesn't have to stop at the closing table. We can help you succeed in the business with hands-on operational support in exchange for an equity stake.
Fractional Executive Support
Ongoing mentorship from experienced operators, including strategic decision-making, financial planning, and scaling strategies.
Financial and Back-Office Support
Bookkeeping, payroll, and financial modeling to keep the business financially healthy.
Marketing and Growth Strategy
We help you develop your strategies for customer acquisition, retention, and digital marketing.
