Our Simplified Selling Process
Once you've submitted the Haro Capital Connection Request, a member of our team will reach out to learn more about your business, your goals of a potential transaction, and request initial documents.
Within 3-7 days our team will compile a list of investors/buyers who's criteria matches your business' profile. We'll review each to minimize any conflict of interest and ensure confidentiality.
Desired Outcome: Determine your goals and compile a list of potential buyers.
We’ll arrange a 45-minute phone/video call with interested investor/buyers to learn about your business and dive into your goals for your business. While the call is an introduction, for the sake of productivity and efficiency, initial metrics (revenue, profitability, customer concentration, etc.) may be asked to be disclosed, the information you share is always confidential.
Desired Outcome: Understand if there is a mutual fit and discuss potential next steps.
Here, the interested investor/buyer will focus on better understanding your business and will ask for limited data such as recent financial results and key successes. This aids in determining initial valuation. All information shared will be protected and kept confidential under an NDA.
This stage often lasts about 15-45 days.
Desired Outcome: Presentation of a non-binding indication of interest (IOI).
Typical interested investors/buyers will come visit you to better understand your business, conduct diligence face-to-face, and help explain next steps and requirements for the process.
This will happen during the initial diligence stage.
Desired Outcome: Better understanding of one another and solidified desire to receive / submit a letter of intent (LOI)
The LOI is an initial agreement on the terms of the transaction with a goal to solidify price and structure that is favorable for all stakeholders. Deal structure such as equity percentage, debt, and seller financing if appropriate will be discussed.
Desired Outcome: Signed LOI and outline of confirmatory diligence process.
This stage,will involve advisors such as legal and accounting, who will help complete the required diligence. Sellers are advised to seek legal and financial guidance to ensure proper execution of the deal.
Often this is a complex and time-consuming process, during which Haro's goal is to facilitate all information with efficient communication and promote transparency.
This stage typically lasts ip to 75-90 days.
Desired Outcome: Finalized diligence, purchase agreement, and transition plan.
Sign final legal documents, wire funds.
Desired Outcome: Take-over day-to-day operations and transition plan being implemented.
