VR in San Diego provides a range of specialized professional services to middle market companies that most business brokers or small office M & A firms simply cannot match. These high level services are typically found in much larger M & A firms and investment banks that charge very large up front fees. At VR, we believe that our compensation should be primarily success based. Because of that, you will not be pitched $40,000 packaging fees from salespersons at seminars. Rather, you will work closely with one of our principals whose income is dependent upon their ability to properly package, market, and sell your company. Our financial success is directly tied to meeting your expectations.
Middle market companies with revenues from $2 million to $75 million, which comprise our core M & A work, need and deserve the same level of service that large firms can access. Therefore, our selling process is very similar to what you may expect from a large investment bank. Valuation, packaging, marketing, negotiation, transaction management, and managing expectations are all key elements of a successful transaction. Our motto is "It's not what you get, it's what you get to keep" and working with your professional advisors, we help you achieve a transaction structure that meets your goals and objectives.
VR is affiliated with the M & A Source, the worlds leading network of merger and acquisition intermediaries. Bill Lange and Ken Oppeltz, the two principals of the San Diego office have both earned the Merger & Acquisition Master Intermediary (M&AMI) designation. This designation requires both a comprehensive educational program as well documented M & A successes. Less than 150 intermediaries worldwide have achieved this designation.
Since 1979 VR has successfully offered client companies an exceptional blend of "street smart" deal-making, financial expertise and professional integrity. VR has sold more businesses in the world than anyone.®
