Sample Consulting Successes:

  • Investor to Company – Start-up turnaround and sale:
    Serving a well-known serial entrepreneur and US-based angel investor on assesing portfolio investment, and negotiating strategy with the CEO and other investor. A short initial phase resulted in facilitating the acceptance of a series of recommendations. The follow-on phase included an aggressive cash-flow reduction program while revamping the marketing plan, packaging the company for acquisition and aligning the expectations of all the stakeholders. The project called on engaging with the different individuals in the company, board members and potential acquirers. Several months later, after two negotiations attempts with strategic buyers, the company was successfully acquired by an industry leader resulting in an exit for the investors
  • Venture Capital Firm – Start Up Company Due Diligence and Investment Terms:
  • A Leading US based VC firm requested our services at travelling overseas to perform due diligence and assist in relationship building with existing shareholders. Resulted in a positive decision to invest and in achieving preliminary consensus around investment terms
  • Investor to Investor – Separation Agreement:
    When a public ethics crisis tainted the reputation of a private company, a conflict emerged between the investors. Representing one of the main investors, we successfully distanced our client from the crisis, and negotiated on his behalf a separation agreement that resulted in valuable assets being retained by the client
  • Acquisition of Family Owned Business:
    As representative of acquiring company, successfully engaged the owner, built a trusting relationship and negotiated terms that addressed his concerns about valuation, terms and the treatment of his family members and employees
  • Non Profit Strategic Relationship – Renegotiation of Agreement:
    Strategic mapping and guidance to non-profit efforts. Established relationship to achieve favorable amended terms with the partner organization leadership, without risking excessive delays and public opposition. Resulted in a very positive long-term outcome
