Buying
M&A Buy-Side Services
There are a host of strategic reasons to acquire an existing company. Vertical integration, diversification, horizontal extension into new products or services, or just a more expediate growth when compared to an organic approach. All are well-established methods to facilitate profitable growth. Sometimes technological integration is the answer. At the end of the day, identifying the reason for buying another entity is critical to achieving long-term success.

INDIVIDUAL
If you're an individual looking for a new start in your career, you want to avoid the potential pitfalls of buying a business - They are very real. Buyers may not know the right questions to ask, pay too much, not understand the financing options, or just not find the right fit. Far and away most deals end in failure, and buyers move on. In most cases, it takes much more sense to buy a business than build one organically. Focal 5 can help you find the right business foundation, with existing success that you can ultimately make your own.
