HOW CAN WE HELP?

Riverfall works with business leaders in two ways. First, we offer comprehensive consulting and coaching services to help leadership teams maximize their opportunities. Riverfall Strategies can provide long- or short-term coaching arrangements, fractional Chief Operating Officer services, strategic retreat support or other approaches tailored to the specific needs of your company. What’s the biggest challenge you face either strategically or operationally? Contact us today and let us help you tackle it!

Second, Riverfall Holdings makes equity investments in operating businesses that would benefit from additional capital or expertise as they target increased growth and profits. If you are a business owner who is looking for additional equity capital, advisory services to help your business expand or other potential partnership arrangements, please contact us to have a conversation. We are long-term, value-oriented investors. We are not interested in rapid exits from investments; instead, we would rather be in business with people we like over the course of many years. We look for businesses with the following characteristics:  

  • A track record of profitability with strong and growing free cash flow

  • Moderate (vs. rapid) revenue and profitability growth

  • A good record of customer retention

  • Unrealized scalability potential, particularly with the opportunity to expand web-based sales and customer engagement or to expand through natural business adjacencies

  • High-integrity management in place or readily available with a passion for building the business over the long term

  • A clear, durable competitive advantage and marketplace differentiation or a defined, exploitable market niche

  • EBITDA generally in the range of $250,000 - $750,000, although we will consider partnering on larger acquisitions or pursuing smaller companies if other conditions are met

While we do not have geographic limitations for business acquisitions, we have a general bias to firms in the Southeast or Mid-Atlantic regions based on general proximity to our home base.

If we believe in company leadership and the business characteristics, we are also willing to take minority stakes or to invest alongside others. We do not limit ourselves to any one acquisition or investment model.

Please reach out to us, and let’s talk soon about how we could work together!
