Join Trevor Crow, Co-Founder of Doida Crow Legal, and Jon Rapacki of GWS Consulting for a practical discussion on how different types of buyers approach acquisitions, and how sellers should evaluate them. They’ll break down the key differences between strategic buyers, private equity firms, and search funds, and what those differences mean for valuation, deal structure, certainty to close, and your role after the transaction. In today’s market, the gap between the right buyer and the wrong one can materially impact your outcome - often in ways that aren’t obvious at the LOI stage. What attendees will walk away with: -A clear understanding of the three primary buyer types in today’s M&A market -How to evaluate competing offers beyond just headline price -Insight into deal terms, risk, and closing certainty across buyer types -A framework for aligning the right buyer with your personal and financial goals REGISTER HERE: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/###-###-#### /WN_fHEXcSPyTma94q3FBKg_Jw LEARN ABOUT DOIDA CROW LEGAL: https://www.doidacrow.com/about/ LEARN ABOUT GWS M&A ADVISORY & CONSULTING: https://gwsconsulting.co/
