As professional merger and acquisition intermediaries, our business is focused entirely on the buying and selling of companies. Well-executed strategic acquisitions can sometimes grow your company more quickly than any other business strategy. We work with our buyer clients to identify the ideal targets, and quickly and effectively close the acquisitions.

We help clients in the planning processes, working with them to assess their long-term business objectives and determine the most appropriate acquisitions. Also, we pre-screen the target acquisition candidates to evaluate market pricing and determine the probabilities for successful acquisitions. Wise planning greatly reduces the risks normally associated with acquisitions and increases the likelihood of a faster and greater return on your money.

It takes an enormous amount of time to identify sellers, contact them, establish credibility, and convince them to seriously discuss sale. Unless you are staffed to consistently and routinely search for acquisitions, it is very costly to competently and professionally handle such efforts. We relieve that time and minimize related costs by handling that process for you while you remain available to run your business.

Our fees are largely contingent upon the successful closing of purchase transactions. Although we do charge a retainer, we collect for the vast majority of our efforts through success fees upon closing. This substantially reduces the up-front cost at risk for our clients who are looking to purchase a business.

As professionals who do nothing other than the buying and selling of companies, we are experts at what we do. We know how to target a search for maximum success potential, and we know where and how to go about finding the sellers who truly fit your search parameters. We provide a buffer in negotiating with sellers, which smoothes the process, improves the odds for success, and enhances the buyer-seller relationship. Professional assistance reduces the risk of acquisition failures.

Arris Group’s clients who are selling their businesses fall into a wide range of industries, typically in sizes between $5 million and $250 million in revenues. Due to the confidential nature of information concerning our seller clients, we require advance information about prospective buyers and their specific interests before providing substantive data regarding the sellers we represent. We also require a confidentiality agreement to be signed prior to disseminating any information about a prospective company.
