Your Questions Answered
Acquisitions are difficult, but they don’t have to be. We’re ready to share the most common practices and answer even the most uncomfortable questions.
At saas.group, we specialize in acquiring SaaS businesses with a strong product-market fit and annual recurring revenue (ARR) between $2M and $10M. We are particularly attracted to companies with a strong product-led growth strategy, a self-service model with limited operating costs, a remote-first culture, and an international team. We occasionally partner with founders of VC-backed companies where we see a possibility to “reboot” products on a bootstrapped, sustainable basis. If you fit these criteria and are looking for a founder-friendly acquisition process that values your time and financial freedom, then saas.group may be the right fit for you.
saas.group offers a transparent and streamlined due diligence process that values the founder's time. We require information about the SaaS business's product, user base, financials, and legal status. We often receive direct access to key tools like Stripe, Intercom, Chargebee, and many others, allowing us to deep-dive into your business without preparing extensive information requests.
At saas.group, we prioritize the needs of the founder and their team throughout the acquisition process. We aim to provide a streamlined, efficient process that minimizes disruptions to the business and allows the team to continue focusing on growth.
We also offer a range of post-acquisition resources and support to help the team achieve their goals and realize their vision for the company. This includes access to our network of industry experts and advisors, as well as our own team of product, marketing, and growth experts. We also provide financial resources to support product development, marketing, and customer acquisition efforts.
Our due diligence process is designed to be fast and efficient, while also providing us with a thorough understanding of the business that we are acquiring. We aim to provide a response within 48 hours of initial contact, and we typically provide an offer within 7-10 days following the receipt of initial information. Our due diligence includes a review of the company's financials, an understanding of your product, customers, and end-market data, as well as a review of the technology infrastructure.
Once an offer is accepted, we aim to close the acquisition within 8-10 weeks. However, we are committed to working with founders and their teams to ensure a smooth transition, and we are flexible on timelines to accommodate their needs.
We provide expert help throughout the process, from initial contact to signing the contract and beyond. The experienced in-house M&A team handles the entire acquisition process, with a focus on a friendly and trustworthy approach.
