Hello, I'm Tim and I'm a specialist in corporate finance for the owner managed business. If you've been approached to sell your business, or you are thinking of buying a business or you just want to know what your business is worth, let's talk.
Many years ago, I qualified as an accountant but please don’t hold that against me. I was involved in post-acquisition integration for an oil business and then joined the acquisition team. I moved into the IT industry and helped take a company public on NASDAQ before moving to Hong Kong where I opened offices across Asia Pacific. I bought my own business in 1997 when we returned from Hong Kong and then took the opportunity to join an acquisitive IT business helping them complete several acquisitions of owner-managed businesses in a very short space of time. I've been involved in Mergers and Acquisitions since the 1980's! I have experience in the oil industry, distribution, information technology, manufacturing, engineering, and construction. I have been advising owner-managed businesses since 2002

You are on your own running a business, and sometimes it’s good to talk to someone who can help.You can’t talk to your management team, and taking your problems home from work doesn’t earn you any brownie points. As the advert used to say “It’s good to talk” and even better if you are talking to someone who has been there and experienced your situation. Even the most elite athletes have a coach helping them achieve their best – shouldn’t you?
