Our Approach

Discovery

We learn about your business . . .

Seek first to understand. It’s one of our mantras at Milestone.  We don’t believe in one size fits all, so we spend time upfront to understand the nuances of your business, starting with a comprehensive assessment of the Accounting, HR, and Revenue functions.

 

You learn about the process . . .

We believe it is important for you to have a thorough understanding of the entire process, so you know what to expect.  We will walk you through the timeline from start to finish, including a comprehensive overview of key milestones and deliverables.  

Strategy

A good strategy starts with the end in mind.  We will work with you to define the desired outcome and then build our strategy to achieve those results, including:  

 

  • Key financial indicators

  •   • Revenue & EBITDA optimization plan
  •   • Detailed financial projection model
  •   • Ideal buyer profile
  •   • Baseline and target business valuations

Execution

The execution phase will be highly customized to your business based on what we learn in the Discovery phase and the plan we outline in the Strategy phase, including:

 

  •   • Detailed action plan 
  •   • Financial reporting/management dashboard
  •   • Proforma capitalization table/waterfall analysis
  •   • Comprehensive data room materials
  •   • Go-forward action plan
