Depending on the size of the transaction.
This could be a business broker, M and a advisor or investment banker. The last two MA Advisors and investment bankers are the big guns in any M and A deal. They know what a company is worth and negotiate the best possible deal.

Or the sell side. Think of them as your deal making quarterbacks throwing passes that lead to touchdowns in the form of profitable deals. Next, meet the accountant. No, not just any accountant, but one specialized in due diligence.

These folks are the masterminds who help align the acquisition with your company's long term goals. They ask the tough questions like is this really the right move? And how will this change your business landscape? And finally, let's talk about the industry expert.
