What's inside
Written by AI tuned on broker house style. Structured the way private equity, search funds, and individual acquirers actually read CIMs — so buyers don't bounce on page two.
Lead with the financial opportunity and the business story. The section buyers actually read first — written to hook, not to bore.
History, industry position, location advantage, years of operation, and team stability — the context buyers need before they read a number.
Your offering laid out clearly — what you sell, who buys it, and what makes it durable. Buyers want to see a real product, not a tagline.
Industry trends, local market dynamics, competitive positioning — the 2–3 paragraphs that establish why this business wins in its corner of the market.
Three-year revenue and SDE trends, margin analysis, and the key metrics that determine asking price. Numbers with narrative, not just tables.
How the business actually runs day-to-day, the owner's current role, and what a new owner inherits. Buyers want to know what changes on day 31.
Three concrete levers a new owner could pull — new geographies, new service lines, new customer segments. The section that justifies the valuation.
Honest risk assessment with mitigants. Buyers respect sellers who surface risks upfront — it accelerates diligence and prevents deal-killing surprises.
Asking price, valuation basis, and investment highlights summary — the section that anchors buyer expectations before the next-step conversation.
