INDUSTRYPRO
Featured: January 21, 2008
IndustryPro is an international mergers & acquisitions
advisory firm founded in 1991. The company facilitates business
acquisitions, divestitures, management buy-outs, and
recapitalizations of privately-held companies that have an annual
pre-tax net income of at least $1,000,000.
Chad Burnett leads the hobby/craft/scrapbooking industry group,
and has completed more transactions in this industry than any other
investment banker. Some of these deals include the Provo
Craft/Sorenson Capital, Die Cuts With a View & Pressed Petals/H.I.G.
Capital, Autumn Leaves/Creativity Inc, and Midwest Products/Castleray,
acquisitions.
Chad is a member of CHA and has specialized in this industry for
more than five years. Chad has consulted with hundreds of companies
regarding their exit, growth, and acquisition strategies, and has
been quoted multiple times in Creative Leisure News and Craftrends.
"We arrange the ideal match for owners and investors through
our extensive research and ongoing relationships within the
industry," Chad said. "IndustryPro knows the people and
the process that deliver the best transactions available."
IndustryPro's extensive investor database includes individuals,
and strategic and private equity investors. Investors are selected
based upon the owner's desires such as selling a minority equity
position, obtaining growth capital, financing a recapitalization,
funding a dividend recapitalization, financing management buy-outs,
providing debt, or selling the entire company.
Another thing that makes IndustryPro unique is the practice of
providing results before garnering fees. Unlike most advisors that
charge a retainer of $15,000-$50,000, IndustryPro doesn't ask
sellers to finance the hunt for buyers/investors. Rather, the firm
already knows and has pre-qualified most of the buyers/investors in
the industry.
