Real-Life M&A: Advice for a Successful Channel Deal

You'll want to see this before you consider taking an investment for your partner business.

March 13, 2023

Thinking of selling your business or taking a private-equity investment? Navigating today’s M&A landscape is a real challenge that could use some practical advice.

So why not listen to those who have done it?

Channel Futures recently established a partnership with MartinWolf’s ITX for an M&A Marketplace that will facilitate the sale of IT-enabled businesses. It is the most comprehensive buyer network of IT businesses valued below $30 million.

Hear from MartinWolf president Tim Mueller on stage at the Channel Partners Conference & Expo and MSP Summit. In the panel discussion, “MSP M&A Superstars: Understanding Today’s New Realities,” you’ll learn what to expect on the M&A journey. It all happens May 1-4, at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas. Register now.

In the webcast above, “Unlocking the Secrets of Successful M&A: Insights from the Virtual Graffiti Acquisition,” we called on MartinWolf president Tim Mueller to discuss an IT business acquisition his team recently facilitated. Joining Mueller and Channel Futures editorial director Craig Galbraith is Hillel Sackstein, whose company accepted an investment and merged into another owned by investor Source Capital. That firm’s managing director, Ben Emmons, also offers his perspective on the transaction.

We hope this conversation on M&A offers partner businesses the advice they need to take on a complicated deal.
