Schedule a ConsultationBuy-side advisory
We sit on the buyer's side of the table and stay there. From shaping the thesis to signing the deal, we bring the origination, access, and process that turn an acquisition strategy into a closed transaction.
We advise search funds and independent sponsors, private equity add-on programs, strategic and corporate buyers, and family offices — anyone acquiring who wants a senior team originating quietly on their behalf.
Explore buy-side advisoryWe pressure-test what you're trying to acquire — sector, size, geography, and the profile of a business worth owning — before a single name goes on the list.
We map the full landscape and approach owners directly and privately, surfacing businesses that aren't openly for sale rather than only what's already on the block.
We manage first contact, NDAs, and early conversations under your anonymity, qualifying real interest before your time is ever on the line.
We structure the deal, coordinate diligence, and lead the economic negotiation alongside your counsel — holding the process together until it signs.
We build your story and financial baseline — normalizing earnings, identifying value drivers, and benchmarking against real comps before we go to market.
We approach a curated universe of strategic and financial buyers under your anonymity, creating a competitive process rather than a single conversation.
Multiple qualified parties engaging in parallel is what moves price. We manage the field, the questions, and the pace to keep every bidder honest.
We lead the economic negotiation, protect your interests through diligence, and stand alongside you and your attorney at the closing table.
Sell-side advisory
Selling your business is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and it deserves a process that treats it that way. We run a disciplined, confidential sale designed to maximize value and protect what you've built.
You keep running the company; we run the deal. Aligned fees mean we only succeed when you do.
Explore sell-side advisoryWhere we work
Select a sector to see how we read it and the kind of deals we advise on there.
Our home turf. Demographics and payors are pushing care into the home, and the space is fragmenting and consolidating fast. Value lives in payor mix, census, caregiver retention, and referral sources — we help buyers separate durable platforms from roll-up noise, and help owners time an exit into that demand.
In their words
There is no doubt the transaction would have not been successful without the team at VCG.
The knowledge the team brought to the table was invaluable every step of the way. We had several interested buyers for our company, along with multiple LOIs. VCG was able to leverage that interest into a great result.
There isn't a doubt in our mind that you got us the most value out of our company. Thank you again for all your help and making this process a very enjoyable one.
Working with VCG met or exceeded all of our expectations. They are a very professional and streamlined organization, with experts in every aspect of the M&A process.
My congratulations to your team. You have done an incredible job for your client, not only in the due diligence and closing, but more importantly in the pricing and holding the valuation through the process.
Selling my company was a very uncertain and stressful time and VCG was always there to steady the ship.
Q&A
