Machine Shops

The Hard Truth: If Your Shop Needs You, Buyers See Risk.

You’ve spent decades building your reputation, your customers, and your craft. But when it’s time to sell, buyers aren’t paying for your reputation alone. They’re paying for a business that runs without you.

If everything depends on you, they cut the price—hard.

The good news: You can fix that, if you start soon enough.

WHAT PRICE YOUR MACHINE SHOP COULD SELL FOR:

Unprepared: 2.5x to 4.0x earnings or EBITDA
Well-Prepared: 5.5x to 8.5x+ earnings or EBITDA

WHAT DRIVES THE DIFFERENCE

We break your business down across 12 key value drivers—the same way serious buyers do. That shows you where you’re strong, where you’re exposed, and what will actually change your outcome.

Most owners are surprised by what really matters—and what doesn’t.

Get in Touch

The Types of Business Exits You Want to Avoid

The Sudden, Forced Business Exit

Health, burnout, or a partner dispute forces you out before you’re ready — at whatever price you can get, not the price you deserve

The Slow Fade

You keep meaning to plan for retirement but never get around to it. Eventually you just close the doors, walking away from hundreds of thousands — or more.

The Bad Deal

You sell to the first buyer who shows up with a check, without knowing your shop’s true value or what the deal terms really mean for your take-home.

Get Clear on Your Options — Move Forward with Confidence

1. Where You Stand

2. What It's Worth, and Why

Free: 30 minutes consultation. We talk about where your business is today, what your goals are for the next 1–3 years, and what a successful exit looks like to you. No pitch, no pressure. Just an honest assessment.

2. What It's Worth, and Why

We analyze your business the same way serious buyers do, so you get a clear view of what it’s worth today—and what’s driving that number. You’ll see where you’re strong, where you’re exposed, and what could actually move your outcome.

4. How to Make Your Business Worth More

No templates. No theory. You get a clear, practical path based on your unique situation—whether you’re ready to go, now, or just starting to think about it. We move at your pace, adjust as things change, and keep the focus on what matters most to you.

4. How to Make Your Business Worth More

You have heard vague advice—“clean up your books,” “grow your bottom line.”

That’s not how value gets built.

We break it down into a few specific drivers—things buyers pay for—and show you:

What matters most in your shop
What’s not worth your time
What moves the number
And by how much

Then we prioritize it, so you’re not guessing or wasting effort. You don’t need to fix everything. You just need to improve the right things.

5. Exit When You Are Ready

4. How to Make Your Business Worth More

6. Make Your Next Move - The Right Way

When the time is right—not before—we discreetly take your business to serious, qualified buyers. The kind who value well-run Texas shops and are willing to pay for them. We protect your confidentiality, handle the process, and help you finish this chapter the right way.

You have many more options that you think. Most business owners are not aware that they have multiple potential exit paths, strategies, timelines, payouts.

6. Make Your Next Move - The Right Way

You didn’t spend 30 or 40 years building something just to sit still. For most owners, the business isn’t just income. It’s your routine. Your problem-solving. Your place in the world. When it’s gone, that space doesn’t just fill itself. We make sure you’re ready for what comes next—not just financially, but personally. Whether that means staying involved, stepping back the right way, or finding a new way to use your experience…
you won’t be left wondering what to do with yourself. You’ve still got a lot left.
We help you use it.

Who this works best for. This is a good fit if you:

10 + Years in Business

You’ve built something real. That kind of track record gives you options most owners don’t have—if you use it the right way.

Thinking about selling in 1 to 3 Years

You’re close enough, that what you do now will directly affect the control you have of the results.

One or two partners, at most

Fewer decision-makers means you can actually move forward without getting stuck in endless back-and-forth.

You don't want to leave money on the table

You’re not looking for a quick deal—you want to do this right: get maximum value for your business, and take care of the people you care about.

Have never sold a business before

You may only do this once. Having someone who’s been through it before helps you avoid costly mistakes with experienced buyers.

Based in Texas

We know the buyers, the market, and what shops like yours can really sell for here.

Plus, we love meeting people in person.

This is NOT a fit if you:

Already have someone guiding your sale, and you're comfortable with the plan

You’ve probably better off staying the course. Congratulations on having a plan!

You don't want another set of eyes on your business

We focus on giving you a clear, objective picture - even if it's not what you expected.

You’re running a large, corporate or PE-backed operation

We focus on owner-operated shops. and companies with revenue from $5 up to $50 million.

You don't want to do any preparation

That's where most of the upside comes from. But if you are tired, and just want to be done with it, don't worry. We c an handle it.
