He was always available, and highly consultative looking after our needs and not pressuring us into closing a deal that we didn't feel comfortable with. Instead he aligned our interests with the interests of potential buyers to create a win-win at a premium valuation."

We Are Strategic Thinkers That Can Properly Craft Your Story

"Hiring Eddie was one of the best business decisions we’ve ever made. As a mid-market software business, we needed someone that could run a professional process like a bigger bank would but would also take the time to learn what was special about our product to frame our value in a differentiated way. The way he engages strategically to make new connections and find new approaches is remarkable."

We Provide A Differentiated Approach To Drive Differentiated Results

"Eddie was phenomenal at helping us navigate a complicated process that included both strategic and financial buyers. He deftly structured a process that allowed us to run several strategics that, on an unsolicited basis, expressed inbound interest along with financial buyers we felt were a better fit down a parallel path. His contacts within our strategic buyer universe allowed him to generate additional interest alongside the unsolicited inbounds and he generated interest from dozens of growth and private equity groups as well.

Ultimately, Eddie's dedicated, senior level attention helped us position our business for a great outcome during a period of uncertainty wrought by the COVID pandemic. I began my career in investment banking and have been through a lot of M&A in my career - Eddie stands out for his ability to build strong relationships, act with integrity and transparency, and orchestrate a process that yields options and, most importantly, fantastic outcomes. I would hire him again in a heartbeat to run a sell-side process."

"We’re very grateful to have worked with Eddie and team. This was our first time going through a sale process and you were true partners in understanding our requirements and walking us through the myriad of options at each point in the deal process. At the same time, your knowledge and experience allowed my management team and I to continue to focus on running the business day to day. We could not have gotten a deal done without you.

You spent the time up front to understand our specific situation and what we were trying to get out of a transaction. Instead of pushing specific buyers on us, you really worked to find the best fit buyer for our business, which not only resulted in the best price, but also ensured that our employees, suppliers, customers, and our company’s legacy were well taken care of.

We are truly appreciative of the relationship we built with you and the team. You were highly professional in all respects and gave us straightforward and authentic advice throughout the entire transaction process which helped us make the best decision for the company and for my family. You were advocates for our interests to the end and truly cared about us as people, not just as a client."

If you have the opportunity to work with Gravity Advisors, you should say yes right now.

"I hoped Gravity Advisors would deliver the standard things: a good network, make introductions, and manage the process. But, in my heart of hearts, I dreamed that they would take the time to understand what our technical software product does, and why it matters. Somehow, Eddie Le and his team were able to deliver on both. After a few meetings Eddie and his team were pitching our enterprise software product and how its architecture created long term differentiation as if they were a product manager on our team. They go deep on your product and industry no matter how technical it gets. And are able to represent you as well as a Co-Founder would in any room. Isn't that who you want talking to the world about your business?"

"Don’t get caught up in the glitter of big firms with fancy tombstones and big rolodexes. Find smart people that have the drive and hustle to take you across the finish line because it’s a marathon. When I decided to sell, I spoke with mobile app bankers and decided to go with the one advisor that had never done a mobile deal. I went with Eddie because he was smart and I trusted he would put in the work to know my business almost better than I did.

So don’t be afraid to think outside the box and go with your gut. That’s what I did, and I was right."
