M&A Insights From Our Team to Yours

We’ve done this, too.

Our Managing Directors have founded, led and sold healthcare companies. That’s how we get M&A deals right.

We sweat the details.

We understand the nuances of valuation and combine that with forecasting to set your transaction up for success.

We won’t let up.

A typical sales process takes 6 to 10 months. We negotiate constantly to mitigate your risk and increase value.

We're in it for you.

We’ve seen where deals break down and why. We know the terrain, guide you through it and deliver.

Do I really need an M&A advisor?

Getting the best deal for your healthcare business takes expertise and patience. We’ve got both.

Selling your business is not a DIY project. Unfortunately, we’ve seen what happens when owners try to go it alone, from skipping due diligence to taking the first offer. These mistakes are costly and can even prevent deals from getting done at all. That’s why we pride ourselves in hand-in-glove service, guiding you through valuation, marketing and negotiation, until we close the best possible deal. To make sure we are able to provide you with our full attention and the best possible outcome, we only take on a select number of clients at a time.

VERTESS encouraged the development of our management team, helping us to improve morale, customer service, and bottom-line results at a major transition point for our company. As an owner, I particularly appreciated their collaborative approach to planning and implementation. Based on our results, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other executives and owners seeking qualified assistance.

VERTESS has an unusual ability to bring out the best in people while at the same time helping them accomplish things they didn’t know they could do. VERTESS is the complete package: a thinker, a communicator and a results-oriented doer.

I want to thank VERTESS for the personal attention and support they gave as I planned for the sale of the behavioral health company that my husband and his team operated for 20 years. VERTESS brought expertise and guidance through every step of the process, from the preparation of data, negotiation, and conclusion of the sale of Supported Living Systems. They helped keep my priorities in the forefront and offered alternative strategies for reaching goals. VERTESS kept the discussion on a steady course and gave thoughtful and wise advice at every point in the process, as we moved to a successful conclusion for both companies.

VERTESS is that rare business leader with the ability to see problems in multiple dimensions and craft solutions that harness innovation and leverage human talent. In collaborating with them on multiple projects I found VERTESS to be a true strategic visionary, with a gift for communicating goals in ways that empower every individual in the organization. Their constant focus on creating value makes them always open to new ideas and never afraid to embrace change. Small wonder other business executives frequently seek their guidance on ways to energize their companies and navigate challenges. I feel fortunate to have worked with VERTESS and to have witnessed first hand their formidable talent for organizational leadership.

Vertess Advisors provided intermediary assistance to us when we decided to sell our human service training company, Practical Training Solutions. We were extremely pleased with their professional approach and practical guidance throughout the entire process, which they were able to expedite, exceeding our initial expectations. The end result was very positive for us as well as the new owner of PTS. I would enthusiastically recommend VERTESS to anyone seeking a productive transition from their company.

VERTESS took our passion to a final product. We had the heart, but we struggled to make our ideals feel real. With VERTESS’ coaching, we experienced a significant turnround in service quality and financial results.

VERTESS acted as a trouble shooter and temporary manager with extreme confidence and vision. They came into an organization that needed to rebuild and redesign for success. VERTESS laid a business foundation that has allowed me, as the new Director, to move swiftly into a trajectory of success. They are very skilled at making difficult decisions without the emotional over lay that can get in the way of positive solutions. VERTESS inspired a sense of confidence and self-reliance from all constituents that were involved in the program. They continued as a coach and consultant to keep us on target and moving forward. I highly recommend them as an executive coach and organizational consultant. They cut through weeds and let a 1000 flowers bloom.

I worked closely with VERTESS and we prepared our company for acquisition, negotiated a final agreement, and concluded the sale of our company. They skillfully advised us on several key points and were there for us even after closing the deal. Very professional all around.

We engaged VERTESS to facilitate a re-visioning session as the ANCOR Foundation struggled to set a new direction for our future. VERTESS successfully helped us to sift through some great ideas, identify several obtainable goals and then move forward with the implementation of a very creative plan of action. I highly recommend VERTESS for their expertise in this area.

With over 25 years in business, I felt I needed some CEO level consulting for my company. After extensive research, I felt that VERTESS' years of C-level management experience, entrepreneurship history and psychological training and expertise could be just what I was looking for. Turns out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in years. I would enthusiastically recommend VERTESS to any executive that wants to solidify or turn around their company.

We sought out VERTESS for consultation based on their demonstrated expertise and knowledge of significant changes in the Iowa healthcare marketplace. From the beginning, VERTESS brought thoughtful guidance to the creation of our development and growth plan and involved all key staff and Board members in the process. As a result, we have a united team with a compelling vision for what lies ahead. We will consider VERTESS part of our Genesis team going forward.
