Work With Advisors
That Used to Be Buyers
Integrus Partners is the sell-side advisory firm built by former private equity acquirers. We help business owners navigate PE-backed transactions with the insight, relationships, and leverage that come from having been on the other side of the table.
We Were the Buyers.
Now We Represent You.
Integrus Partners was founded by M&A professionals who spent their careers on the buy-side — executing acquisitions for portfolio companies backed by the world's top private equity firms. We've been in those meetings. We know what buyers look for, how they model deals, and where they push for concessions.
Now, we use that knowledge exclusively for sellers — business owners who deserve the same institutional advantage that buyers have always had at the table.
We are a boutique sell-side advisory firm. That means you get senior-level attention, bespoke positioning, and a partner who fights for your outcome — not a junior team running a playbook.
KKR Portfolio Experience
Our team led acquisitions within KKR-backed platforms, gaining deep insight into how the world's most sophisticated private equity firms evaluate, price, and close deals.
Shore Capital Partners
Years spent inside Shore Capital portfolio companies executing roll-up strategies across healthcare and business services gave us an unmatched view of mid-market PE acquisition playbooks.
Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe
Experience with one of healthcare's most active PE firms means we understand how the largest and most specialized acquirers assess practice value and structure partnership terms.
Advisory Services
End-to-end sell-side representation for business owners pursuing a PE-backed partnership, recapitalization, or full exit.
Valuation & Deal Preparation
We conduct a thorough assessment of your business — financial performance, operational strengths, market position, and growth potential — to establish a credible, defensible valuation range and identify exactly where your leverage lies.
Learn MorePositioning & Marketing Materials
We craft a compelling, institution-quality growth narrative for your business — a Confidential Information Memorandum and supporting materials that present your story the way top buyers want to read it.
Learn MoreTargeted Buyer Outreach
We engage a carefully curated set of qualified platform buyers — not a mass-market blast. Our relationships across PE-backed platforms mean we know who is acquiring, what they will pay, and how to build competitive tension without burning bridges.
Learn MoreDeal Structuring & Negotiation
From LOI through close, we negotiate every economic and structural term on your behalf — valuation multiples, equity rollover, earnouts, management agreements, non-competes, and clinical autonomy provisions.
Learn MoreDue Diligence Management
We prepare your business for buyer scrutiny, manage the data room process, and ensure that due diligence strengthens rather than erodes your negotiating position as you move toward close.
Learn MorePost-Close Transition Support
Our relationship doesn't end at closing. We remain available to help you navigate the early integration phase, protect your team, and ensure the partnership performs as structured.
Learn MoreBuilt for PE-Targeted Verticals
We advise owners across the industries where private equity consolidation is most active — where our buy-side experience is most valuable.

We Know How Buyers Think — Because We Were Buyers
Most sell-side advisors have never sat in a buyer's seat. Our founding team has. We spent years executing acquisitions for PE-backed platforms, attending investment committee meetings, and negotiating term sheets — from the other side of the table.
That experience is not theoretical. It is the exact knowledge base we deploy to protect your valuation, structure your deal, and anticipate every move a buyer will make.
- We know how buyers build their financial models — and where to push back
- We know which deal terms matter most, and which are negotiating theater
- We know which platforms are serious acquirers and which are tire-kickers
- We know how to create competitive tension without burning relationships
- We know when to walk away — and how to use that credibly
A Track Record Built on Both Sides
Across healthcare, business services, education, and consumer verticals for top PE-backed platforms.
Senior partners who have been in every phase of a deal — from initial diligence through post-close integration.
No junior analysts. No hand-offs. Your deal is managed by partners with direct PE experience, start to finish.
How We Work
A proven, four-phase approach refined through hundreds of transactions on both sides of the deal table.
Discovery & Valuation
We assess your business from every angle — financial performance, operational model, customer concentration, and market position — to establish credible value and identify your leverage.
Positioning & Preparation
We craft a tailored growth narrative and prepare institutional-quality materials that tell your story compellingly to the specific types of buyers most likely to pay a premium.
Targeted Buyer Outreach
We engage a curated set of qualified platform buyers — not a spray-and-pray campaign — and use our relationships and process management to build competitive tension.
Negotiation & Close
We negotiate every term on your behalf — economics, structure, equity rollover, autonomy provisions — and guide you through due diligence to a smooth, value-maximizing close.
First-Time Sellers Are at a Structural Disadvantage
Private equity-backed acquirers complete dozens of deals each year. They have dedicated M&A teams, sophisticated financial models, and a playbook designed to extract value from sellers who don't know what they don't know.
Most business owners sell once in a lifetime. That information gap is enormous — and it costs sellers real money.
We founded Integrus Partners specifically to close that gap. Our team has been in those buyer meetings. We've seen the tactics, the LOI structures, and the due diligence strategies that quietly chip away at a seller's final number.
Now we use that knowledge — all of it — to protect you.
Valuation Is Only the Starting Point
The headline multiple matters, but so does the structure. Earnouts, equity rollover percentages, working capital adjustments, and rep & warranty provisions can dramatically change your actual outcome. We negotiate all of it.
Not All Buyers Are Created Equal
The highest initial offer is often not the best deal. We evaluate each offer across price, structure, cultural fit, platform growth trajectory, and management philosophy — because your second check depends on getting this right.
Preparation Determines Your Price
Deals that fall apart in diligence or reprice at close almost always had avoidable issues. We prepare your business months before going to market — so that every buyer meeting, every diligence request, and every management presentation reinforces your value.
Your Team & Patients Come With You
A transaction isn't just about your number. We ensure that deal terms protect the people and operations you've built — because a sustainable partnership is what generates your long-term upside after close.
