Fulcrum’s Corporate Development Network:
Fulcrum takes our broker, buyer, and resource network very seriously. We spend an incredible amount of time and energy finding and vetting through these partners. Like everything else, it starts with a conversation with leaders within the organizations we work with. We learn their stories, their motivations, their processes, and their criteria to develop a strong profile of what they are seeking and who would be a great fit for them. Ultimately, that saves everyone a lot of time and creates peace of mind!

What People are Saying
Stonewall Group is a unique firm that acquires, operates, and scales service-based companies by leveraging a customer acquisition and service delivery model that aligns all stakeholders (customers, employees, vendors, etc.). Our model unlocks the potential of our acquisitions’ team and encourages growth on all fronts. Scoutly has been an integral part of our acquisition strategy. Scoutly has helped us with acquisition targeting, opportunity sourcing and introducing us to brokers we would have otherwise not met. Any buyer, broker or seller would be remiss not to work with Scoutly.

Fulcrum has already identified and qualified TWO sellers that are IDEAL for our M&A practice… and it’s only been a few weeks. Compared to other sources, they are 1000% better.

When Fulcrum launched Scoutly, our investment leadership team had no doubt that the service would be world-class. Scoutly has connected us with business owners and founders of all types. They took the time to understand our Thesis and interests and connect us with those that are of potential fit. Often times, they are working directly with the business owner/founder, so they know what they are looking for and how to help navigate their needs/wants and busy schedules.

As a former Oncological surgeon and current Interim CEO of Sight Medical, I’ve been approached by all sorts of companies – offering their services in helping me with my potential exit. Scoutly was different. Scoutly’s team took the time to get to know me, my business, what I want out of an exit and what I need out of an exit. They connect me with the right people and resources to get the best grip on how to move, if and when the time is right!

I’m a believer that everything is for sale for the right price. That includes my company. The Scoutly team gets it. I’ve worked hard to build a lifestyle business that supports me, my family, my team and my customers. Letting go of that, is and will always be difficult to consider and harder to do some day. Understanding all of the options and resources available is a God send. Whether it be help with sales and marketing, capital, and of course transition opportunities – Scoutly is great!
