Our Investment Partners
We work with a network of trusted private equity partners who have collectively completed thousands of acquisitions, bringing unmatched experience and efficiency to every transaction. Their reputation as reliable, well-capitalized buyers ensures a smooth process from first conversation to closing, with clear communication, streamlined due diligence, and a proven ability to execute.

Frequently Asked Questions
The answer isn’t always “sell now.” At Grove Capital, we take a consultative approach, helping owners weigh market conditions, valuation, industry trends, personal goals, and business dynamics before making a move. Our goal is to guide you toward the decision that’s right for you, even if it means waiting. Many relationships start years before a sale, built on trust and doing what’s best for the owner.
In most cases, both remain intact. In the middle market, retaining talent is critical, so layoffs are rare. Employees often keep or even improve their pay and benefits. Your brand’s reputation is also preserved, as it’s a key part of what the buyer values and is investing in.
Grove helps owners with exit planning, diligence preparation, and introductions to reputable buyers, avoiding time-wasters and undercapitalized prospects. Our focus is always quality over quantity.
That’s up to you. Most firms want owners to stay on for at least 6-12 months to ensure a smooth transition. After that, your role depends on your goals. If you want to keep leading, you can stay on with a salary and retain equity, giving you a potential “second bite of the apple” at the next sale. If you’re ready to step back, the buyer can help implement a succession plan to protect your business’s legacy.
Buyers look closely at revenue trends, profitability, growth strategy, customer retention, team structure, brand reputation, and your plans post-sale. At Grove Capital, we help owners present their business in the best light so no value is left on the table.
Confidentiality is central to our value as a buyside firm. We know M&A discussions can be sensitive, so we establish strict contact protocols to protect your privacy. Unlike sell-side brokers, we never post businesses on public listing sites — reducing the risk of competitors or employees finding out. Instead, we leverage deep industry knowledge to quietly connect you with buyers who are the right economic and cultural fit.
