    Common Questions

    M&A Capital Raising FAQ

    How much capital can I raise to buy a business?
    Most of our clients raise between $1M and $50M for business acquisitions. The amount depends on your target company's size, your track record, and the deal structure. We've helped clients raise capital for acquisitions ranging from small businesses to large middle-market companies.
    What type of businesses can I acquire using investor capital?
    You can acquire almost any type of profitable business: manufacturing, services, healthcare, technology, distribution, and more. The key is having a clear investment thesis and a target that makes financial sense for investors.
    How long does the capital raising process take?
    Typically 60-90 days from kickoff to first close, though this varies based on your network, deal size, and market conditions. We help you move faster with proven templates and systems.
    Do I need experience to raise capital for an acquisition?
    Not necessarily. While experience helps, we've helped first-time acquirers successfully raise capital. What matters most is a compelling deal, clear thesis, and professional presentation to investors.
    What's the typical investor structure for M&A deals?
    Most M&A deals use an LLC structure with investors as limited partners. Common splits are 70/30 or 80/20 (investors/sponsor). We help you determine the right structure for your specific situation.
