I founded a healthcare-focused marketing agency, scaled it for 22 years, and successfully sold it to a top-tier private equity firm, on terms I’d sign again.
I know exactly what buyers want and what kills deals, because it took me 3 years to sell. I work with you before you sell, and I stay with you through handoff and earnout, because the deal isn’t over when you sign.
You’re running a profitable agency or services company with a strong team. You’re starting to hear from buyers, you’re burned out, or wondering if now is the right time to sell.
Is your company actually sellable? Are you growing the right way, or just growing? And what happens to you, your team, and your legacy when you sell?
I’m here to help answer those questions.
I work 1:1 with only 6 retainer clients each year, because effective advisory work requires me to get deep into your business. I need to thoroughly understand your numbers, your team dynamics, and your goals.
Is your company sellable? We’ll evaluate your financials, operations, market positioning, and team structure to identify gaps buyers will exploit. Then will address them before you go on the market.
You may not be ready for exit. I can help you achieve a valuation goal with strategic guidance on how to grow revenues and profits.
I speak about what makes businesses sellable and the emotional reality of selling a company you built, especially for female founders.
“Chris was instrumental in helping me with my company sale and navigating the whole process. She, too, owned a medical marketing agency at one time and sold it to PE, so she was the perfect match for me as an advisor through my sale. Not only did she help me throughout the process, but she also joined calls with me when I was negotiating my LOI, connected me with excellent attorneys, and even connected me with other resources. Her advice was spot on, and it was so comforting to have Chris on my side throughout the process. I was able to sell my company to a great buyer, and I'm staying on to lead sales and growth of the organization - the things I love most!”

I’ll tell you what’s working, what’s going to hurt your valuation, and whether I’m the right person to help you fix it.
