A transparent, structured process built around founders
Selling your company is a milestone. We make the process predictable, efficient, and respectful, combining a human approach with a clear technical framework.
A first conversation to understand each other
Upon alignment, we sign an NDA and review a focused set of company and financial information. Additional meetings with you and key team members help us deepen our understanding while remaining conversational and never burdensome. We always make sure there is enough time to address all your questions and agree together on the next steps.
A thoughtful, transparent offer
When mutual fit is clear, we present a straightforward LOI outlining valuation, structure, timeline, and transition options. Our offer is designed to reflect both the strength of your business and the future you envision.
Streamlined due diligence
Once the LOI is signed, our diligence is targeted and predictable, shaped by deep experience in software. Due diligence usually lasts 1–2 months and focuses on financial, technical, legal, and tax matters. Throughout the process, we may also share ideas for how your business could grow based on our understanding so far. This phase usually includes the drafting of the purchase agreement.
Closing the transaction
With committed capital and a clear plan, closing happens smoothly once diligence is complete. During this step, we:
- Finalize all contracts
- Sign the purchase agreement
- Transfer funds and complete the transaction
Post-closing: Growing the business together
After the transaction, your company continues to operate with autonomy while gaining access to Shop Circle’s ecosystem: AI capabilities, operational support, GTM expertise, talent resources, and capital for add-on acquisitions.
