The $840,000 Nobody Modeled
The acquisition inquiry arrived on a Tuesday. Four sentences. An EBITDA multiple. A 30-day window. What the email did not mention is that the fund's model has already assigned a projection to your workforce, built from industry benchmarks, not from a conversation with anyone on your floor. The gap between what that model assumes and what your workforce actually knows has a documented median. It is $840,000. It was not in any vendor proposal across twelve deployments. It was not in any acquisition model on either side of any of those transactions. The seller who documents it first is having a different conversation.
Hello World.
The email arrives on a Tuesday. Four sentences. An EBITDA multiple that sounds higher than you expected. And thirty days to respond to a conversation you are not yet equipped to have. NexusGate exists at the gap between what PE capital knows about your business and what you know about them, and why that asymmetry always costs you money.
