  1. BEGINNING THE ACQUISITION PROCESS: STEPS EVERY MSP SHOULD TAKE

  2. Define Your Why Every successful sale begins with a clear understanding of the owner’s goals. Before considering a sale, work with an advisor to identify your goals. Do they clearly define your MSP’s vision, mission, and objectives as well as your own personal desires?

  3. Assess Your Financials Financial health is a significant determinant in the sale process. Potential buyers will closely scrutinize your financial records. Ensure you have a clear sales process, a robust customer base, and consistent revenue streams.

  4. Strengthen Your Team A talented and autonomous team can significantly enhance the value of your MSP. Before considering a sale, evaluate your team’s strengths and areas of improvement. Investing in training and skill development can make your MSP more attractive to potential buyers.

  5. Streamline Operations and Documentation Operational efficiency is a key selling point. Ensure your operations are lean, scalable, and documented. From service delivery to customer service, every process should be mapped out.

  6. Evaluate and Optimize Client Relationships Strong client relationships are the backbone of any MSP. Before a sale, assess the health of these relationships. Are your clients satisfied? Is there potential for growth within existing accounts? Are the client contracts assignable to a new buyer?

  7. Seek Professional Advice Selling an MSP is a complex process, laden with industry-specific nuances. Engage a sell-side advisor who understands the MSP landscape. Their insights can be invaluable, from accurately valuating your MSP to connecting you with the right buyers.
