Hi, I have a client in the MSP space who is looking to expand by acquisition. I do biz dev for his existing MSP business, and we are getting traction in the sunbelt, so his ideal scenario is to buy an MSP in the area (ideally Texas) with solid employees whose owner is looking for an exit. He would keep employees on, and we all know the PE rollups in the space would not. Any suggestions for how I can help him with this search?

Direct outreach to owners tends to work well here. Also worth having the financial story buttoned up early — MSP owners thinking about exit want to see a clean picture of how the deal works for them.

Thank you ^redacted‌, Brett I have many tools that capital and MSPs utilize to do exactly what you are looking to do. They are both DIY and expert-led. I have personally advised, and am advising, many large MSPs and PE firms doing the same. We even have Thesis pre written to assist you. Check me out
