2025 Update: Calder’s Buy-Side Gold service recognized as finalist for Product/Service of the Year at the 23rd Annual M&A Awards in New York.
What is guaranteed:
Guaranteed minimum of 10 proprietary leads matching target criteria. Leads are defined as businesses that match industry, geography, and size criteria and are willing to engage in a phone call or in-person meeting with our client to discuss selling.
Are there acquisition targets that you already have in mind but haven’t been able to get a hold of or for confidentiality reasons, don’t feel comfortable reaching out to? We can help!
Calder deliverables:
Calder will produce a professional buyer profile to be posted on our site and sent to our network of sellers. Meanwhile, Calder’s Buy-Side Team will create a list of all possible prospects matching our client’s specific criteria and aggressively and professionally contact all prospective sellers using a 7-point touch sequence.
Prospects that do not respond or are not ready are followed up via a drip-loop sequence that ensures consistent communication and nurturing. Interested prospects are qualified through a phone call interview to ensure fit prior to any introduction to our client. Calder’s team assists throughout the entire post-introduction process including information request, valuation, negotiation, LOI creation, deal structuring, securing financing, and due diligence.
Time-frame:
Due to the intensity and time-consuming research conducted up-front, along with the guarantee, there is a six-month minimum commitment. After six months, the engagement transitions to month-to-month and can be canceled at any time provided a fourteen-day notice.
What it costs:
A monthly work fee of $7,500 (100% of work fees are credited toward the Success Fee + ability to halve work fee post-LOI). The Success Fee (only paid once the deal closes) reflects a Modified Lehman structure and can be provided upon request.
