“Collaboration Capital’s offer is transparent, efficient, and inexpensive; I recommend it.”

Le challenge

The challenge

As a personal buyer, Olivier Dietlin created Ekpyrosis to finance the acquisition of an SME. He found it difficult to connect with relevant companies to acquire. The available solutions were not satisfactory:
  • databases did not provide good results, as most companies do not publish their accounts and are not listed;
  • investment banks and M&A professionals lack transparency and are expensive;
  • working alone on the project is time-consuming: finding suitable companies, gathering contact information, reaching out to companies… everything was too slow.
La solution

The solution

After launching the project on Collaboration Capital, many new companies were identified through online research based on semantic analysis: new results appear.

“ They sourced many leads, including in sectors where I thought I already knew every player. It allowed me to discover companies that were unlisted or poorly listed in traditional tools.”.

Once the relevant companies were identified, their data was enriched to provide the email and phone number of the management team. 95% of companies were successfully enriched.

Using the contact information collected, the target companies were approached by the Collaboration Capital team to present the project. 30% of the target companies were interested in the operation.

“I think that's an excellent ratio.”

The interested companies were put directly in touch with Olivier, who handled the relationship directly from that point.

“I had excellent relationships with the sellers, which proves that the first introduction made by Collaboration Capital is a success.”

The first contact with target companies is decisive: we carry it out using a proven method, following the phone script validated by each client.
