Looking for Funding for your business?

Navigating Investment Success

In the world of tech start-ups and scale-ups, securing investment isn't just about numbers, as you probably know; it's about crafting a compelling narrative that resonates with investors. At Sales Acceleration Consulting, we have experience in guiding businesses like yours through the intricate process of raising capital. From seed funding to orchestrating full company sales, our wealth of experience ensures your journey to securing the right investment begins on a solid foundation.


Why Work With Us?

Crafting a Persuasive Narrative:

Embark on a journey of telling your story with a pitch that captivates and convinces. We will work with you to develop a compelling narrative that showcases why your venture is not just an investment opportunity but a promising and innovative force in the market.


Identifying Suitable Investors:

Our extensive network in Private Equity, Venture Capital and Family Offices, positions us to connect you with investors who not only specialise in technology, but also align with your technological direction. We understand that the right investor goes beyond financial backing — they bring expertise and strategic value to fuel your growth.


What Services Do We Offer?

The Red Flag Review:

Using a comprehensive template, we will lead you through our tried and trusted process which will highlight any “Red Flags” that might prohibit a sale or reduce the price achieved. The template is comprehensive, with c.200 line items, and it will be tailored to your business.


Appointing M&A Advisors

You will almost certainly need to appoint an M&A Advisor. This will be a professional, specialist business that will provide expert financial and strategic advice on the divestment. Their primary role will be to help you navigate the complex process of selling the business and to maximise the value of the transaction to completion. 

We will work with you to build a shortlist, and assess a small number of Advisors who will be invited to pitch for the work to lead the Sale. We will lead the interview process, with you involved at each stage, and present a recommendation for you to decide the final selection.


Documentation Preparation

Creation, evaluation and critiquing of elements of your Customer Value Propositions, Confidential Information Memorandum, Business Plan, Product Roadmaps and other documentation

  • Input on preparing the Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM)

  • Product Roadmaps

  • Advice on preparing Commercial and Technical Due Diligence documents 


Tailoring Your Pitch:

One size does not fit all in the world of fundraising. We work with you to customise your pitch, ensuring it resonates with the specific interests and criteria of the investors you're addressing. This tailored approach not only showcases your strengths but also targets directly what investors are looking for.


Bid Assessment Services

As you advance through the funding/sale process, we shall be there to review and assist in assessing competing bids and offers.


Be Your Critical Friend

It is critical that the owners and directors have an independent set of people who can help them assess options and highlight if there are deviations from the plan and potential to meet the objectives. From our extensive M&A and Disposals experience, we will act as your "critical friend" at all times to help you achieve the maximum. 


Your Next Steps:

Whether you are seeking as little as £250k in funding or exploring selling your business as part of your exit strategy, our team is ready to collaborate with you. Your journey to securing the right investment begins here at Sales Acceleration Consulting Ltd. We believe in more than just raising capital; we believe in elevating your venture to new heights.


Contact us today, and let's craft a narrative that turns potential investors into enthusiastic partners. Your success story awaits, and we're here to help you write it.
