We've helped dozens of professionals buy and sell businesses with an advisory-first approach.
Roughly 6 million small businesses will change hands by 2035, yet fewer than 20% of sales use a professional broker — and many who do are matched with advisors who charge the most and understand the least. AMB was built to be the exception: genuine M&A expertise, incentives aligned to your outcome, and technology no traditional brokerage can match.
20+ completed transactions and $150M in deal value — earned as a buy-side deal executor. We know exactly how acquirers underwrite, where they push in diligence, and how to prepare sellers to win. We're not brokers who pivoted from real estate.
Unlike 75% of brokers, we charge no upfront retainer — sellers pay only at close. Our modified Lehman Scale runs ~3 points below market, and we hold zero referral agreements with buyers, lenders, or attorneys.
Our proprietary AI outreach system qualifies and reaches thousands of targets in hours — roughly 40× the throughput of a manual team. That means broader, faster, more confidential buyer discovery for every deal we run.
We represent owners selling their business and acquirers seeking proprietary deal flow — from first valuation through closing.
End-to-end representation with no retainer: CIM preparation, targeted buyer marketing, NDA and offer management, LOI negotiation, and diligence through close.
Proprietary, SKAI-powered deal origination for search funds, family offices, and strategic buyers. Performance-based pricing — $400 per intro call, $5,000 per NDA — with a success fee at close.
A $53.9B market in the early stages of PE consolidation, with 15+ firms acquiring at 7–10× EBITDA. We bring rare, defensible expertise in AMC/HOA valuations, buyers, and deal structures.
Thinking of selling in a few years? We help you sharpen the levers buyers pay for — customer concentration, retention, margins, and systems — so you go to market from a position of strength.
Selling your business can take six months to over a year. Our goal is to advise you every step of the way.
We learn your business, your goals, and your timeline — no obligation, no retainer.
We align on timing, deal structure, and the ideal buyer profile before we take your business to market.
We draft a Confidential Information Memorandum that highlights what buyers actually care about.
We solicit multiple bids from a pre-vetted list — strategics, PE platforms, and individual acquirers.
We negotiate the LOI and quarterback business, legal, tax, and quality-of-earnings diligence.
Purchase agreement signed, sale closed, transition plan in motion. Mission accomplished.
Cofounder & Managing Partner
Frank brings 5+ years of hands-on M&A experience across 20+ transactions totaling $150M in deal value, with a 91% close rate after LOI. He built that record as a buy-side deal executor — so he knows precisely what acquirers value and where deals are won or lost. He leads AMB's financial modeling, CIM preparation, and negotiation strategy.
Cofounder & Partner
Tereno is a finance and accounting leader with 15 years of experience heading a team of accountants. He has founded and operated multiple businesses — and sold one of his own through the same process AMB now runs for clients, giving him a ground-level read on what sellers face. He leads business development, builds and operates SKAI, and provides CFO-level financial expertise.
"Frank knew our business better than the buyers did. He pushed every offer harder than I would have, and we closed at a number I didn't think was possible."
When you engage AMB, we draft a Confidential Information Memorandum that details every aspect of your company — the document serious buyers underwrite from. It's how we present your business in its strongest, most defensible light.
