Business Acquisition/

Here's what Lighthouse Financial, LLC  has to say about their unique service.

Many business owner's who wish to grow their company via acquisition of others find they do not have the time nor expertise to devote to the process. In addition they cannot or do not want to afford an in house Merger & Acquisition department.  We at Lighthouse Financial, LLC offer a solution to this problem.  Outsource your merger/acquisition activities to us.  Let us function as your M&A department and take advantage of the experience we have gained by affecting over 2,000 business sales

Finding a good business can be a difficult undertaking.  Most people take a reactive approach to finding a business to buy. Much time and effort is spent searching the Internet, contacting Business Brokers, Bankers, Accountants and other centers of influence to generate a "Deal Flow"    It is not unusual to spend a year or more in full time search, often without success.

One serious limitation to this reactive approach is that often a purchase is made because it could, not because it should.  Acquisitions should occur as part of a strategic plan, not just because a particular business can be acquired.  

We prefer to take a proactive approach and only acquire businesses according to a strategic plan. Using this process we deal primarily with business owners whose companies are not listed for sale with Business Brokers and Intermediaries etc.  Most high quality opportunities never make it to the market place because someone (usually an “insider”) comes along and scoffs them up.  That someone may as well be you.
