Then later today I saw a video interview with the CEO of Axial Market, a website that serves professional deal makers that mostly serves mid-market companies (I know people have different definitions of "mid-market" but I consider that to be about $20 million - $500 million in annual revenue), In the video the CEO of Axial indicates that they, too, have seen record levels of deal activity (see video below).
Codiligent primarily sells small companies with less than $20 million in annual revenue, but we, too, have seen a high level of activity this year (and anecdotally have heard the same from others that serve small companies). If you are thinking about selling your business, now would be a good time to consider moving forward. Don't wait until the market softens and miss the opportunity to maximize your exit.
