Remuneration
We’re able to acquire companies up to £2,000,000.
We’ll offer 6-12 months of revenue from shared, business, and reseller hosting accounts. We don’t count domain revenue as we charge just above cost. We’re also open to providing a bonus for hitting performance and retention targets on the anniversary. This is a great way to ensure a smooth transition, a win for sellers, buyers, and clients. The important thing here is that we’re not just interested in how much your clients make you or could make us - we want to ensure we’re a good fit for your clients. We’re looking to take on happy clients who respect quality and keep them happy while protecting your legacy. If we’re the right fit, we can build lasting relationships. Clients from previous acquisitions stay with us for years. Some have been with us for a decade!
Timeline
Sign NDA
If you meet the minimum requirements, we’ll send you a digitally-signable NDA so we can talk confidently about your specifics.
Valuation
As part of this process, we’ll look at the state of your company and get to know a little more about you, your clients, and your ethos. If it’s a fit, we’ll negotiate a price that works for both parties.
Exchange Contracts
We’ll agree on a sale date and schedule of events. This lets us determine the resources required to ensure a smooth transition, such as new hardware, staff, etc, and plan the handover.
Migration: what to expect
We’ll work with you to notify your clients about the upcoming change of ownership and provide a timeline. This information will include where our support resources are located and our contact email and phone number.
In most cases, we can migrate clients over without downtime, out of peak hours.
If you’d like to understand better how we handle migrations, look at our welcome page example that clients will gain access to when we acquire a company. Feedback from every acquisition we’ve ever done has been very positive because of our work beforehand.
I hope that you’ll decide to talk to us.
Kind regards,
