Advisors. Consultants. Industry Experts.

Maven Group, LLC offers a complete range of consulting services for independent elevator companies, all of which provide clients with the ability to run and grow their business more efficiently. Please browse our services and contact us with any further inquiries.

Consulting

Maven Group’s first and foremost mission is to represent the interests of independent elevator companies. One of the primary ways of doing this is by helping owners and managers better understand proper procedures, programs and methods to get the most out of their services and teams.

Guidance is provided for those companies looking to sell in the future as well as for those who may never consider selling. Unlike other consulting groups, Maven Group acts as both a facilitator and an active participant throughout the entire endeavor. Target driven guidelines of what must be done to optimize your business will be provided, as well as the best ways to enact the proposed changes.

No matter what your company’s objectives may be, either to increase profits, to buy a competitor or to sell all or part of the business, Maven Group’s expertise will help you tremendously on your journey to achieving your goals.

Sale Preparation

As an owner, the decision to sell can be difficult. While the financial benefits are attractive, it is vital not to rush a sale. In the end, it’s well worth hiring an experienced consultant to guide you through the process and all the potential pitfalls—as every little detail could mean thousands (sometimes millions) of dollars lost or gained.

Maven Group will get your business in its best shape possible in preparation for a sale. Lack of preparation is the leading cause for deals to fail. Throughout the process we will focus on maximizing your profit while protecting your current employees.

To ensure your business is completely prepared, we will not just talk through high level problems, we will dig into customer data and accounting to provide facts and highlight opportunities. At Maven Group, we are confident that our exclusive sell-side solutions will give you and your company the optimal exit strategy.

Valuations

Maven Group offers clear and articulate valuations. Valuations are based on the information a company provides in collaboration with our expert knowledge of the industry, current trends among the various buyers and comparable transactions in the past. We will provide attention to detail and in-depth analysis while keeping your information confidential at every stage of the process.

Valuations are crucial in all stages of the buying and selling process, even when partners discuss an internal buyout. Whether you are contemplating a sale in the near future or just need advice on how to optimize your performance for a sale 5 or 10 years down the road, you will greatly benefit from our professional guidance.
