- Identifying the key contacts at the right potential acquirers, both strategic and financial, and then connecting with them through a strategy based on a tailored, relationship-based approach
- Driving a disciplined approach to the buyer due diligence process, including both replying to and “triaging” the sometimes extensive buyer information requests, managing site visits, and working to minimize disruption to the company and management through the entire sales process
