My Story

An Operator,
Not an Investor

I didn't come from private equity. I'm not here to extract value, flip a business, and move on. I'm here because I believe the best businesses are built by people who show up every day and make a difference in the lives of their employees and customers.

I believe that great businesses already exist, run by hardworking owners who deserve a thoughtful exit — and employees who deserve continuity.

When you sell to Tinuity Group, you're not handing the keys to a fund. You're handing them to an operator who will be there on day one, and on year ten.

Continuity

We preserve what works — your culture, your team, your customer relationships.

Respect

Every conversation starts with genuine respect for what you've built.

Transparency

No surprises. We're honest about our process and our intentions from day one.

Long-Term

We're not buying to sell. This is a business we plan to run for decades.

Acquisition Criteria

What We Look For

We focus on businesses that have already proven themselves. If your business has been running for years, serves a loyal customer base, and generates consistent revenue — we'd love to learn more.

01

Established & Profitable

Three or more years of consistent profitability. We don't need a hockey stick. We need a business that already works.

02

Small, People-Driven Teams

We're most comfortable with 5 to 30 employees — small enough to have a real culture, large enough to have real systems.

03

Flexible Deal Structures

We work well with SBA-backed acquisitions and are open to owner financing. Deals that work for both sides, not just us.

04

A Reputation That Precedes You

If your business is trusted in the community — by customers, by employees, by vendors — that's exactly the foundation we want.

05

Owner Ready to Step Back

We work best with founders planning retirement or a lifestyle change — who want peace of mind that things will continue well.

06

Service & B2B Businesses

We focus on service-based and B2B operators. We evaluate based on the team, the market position, and the owner's story.

Not Sure If You're a Fit?

Reach out anyway. We're happy to have an honest conversation. If we're not the right buyer for you, we'll tell you — and we may be able to point you in the right direction. There's no pressure, no obligation, and no one trying to rush you into anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions Sellers
Often Ask Us

We've answered these as plainly as we can. If you have a question that isn't here, just reach out.

Will you keep my employees on? +

Yes — in virtually every case, retaining the team is one of our top priorities. Your employees are a core part of what makes your business work. We're not acquiring a balance sheet; we're acquiring a living organization. We are willing to commit to that in writing during the transaction.

Are you going to change everything after you buy it? +

No. We acquire businesses because they already work. We don't arrive with a transformation agenda. We may make improvements over time, but we do that slowly and in partnership with the team that's already there. The name on the door may eventually reflect our ownership; the way it operates, usually doesn't change much at all.

How long does the process take? +

Every deal is different, but most acquisitions take between three and six months from initial conversation to close. We don't rush. We want to get it right — for you, for us, and for everyone who depends on the business.

Will you pay a fair price? +

We aim to offer a fair price — one that reflects what you've built and allows us to sustain the business going forward. We're not a fund trying to squeeze margin. We're buyers looking for a deal that works for both sides. If our offer doesn't make sense for you, we'll say so clearly and part as friends.

Do you need to see my financials right away? +

Not on day one. Our first conversation is just that — a conversation. We want to hear about your business, what makes it special, and what you're hoping for in a sale. Financials come later, once we've established mutual interest and signed a confidentiality agreement.

What does the transition period look like? +

We'll ask you to stay involved for a period of time — typically 30 to 90 days — to help with the handover. We keep it manageable and respectful of your time. Many sellers tell us this is one of the most satisfying parts of the whole process: watching someone step in who genuinely cares about continuing what you built.

Let's Have

There's no pitch, no pressure, and no obligation. Just an honest conversation between two people who both care about what you've built.
