About Lloyd Silver
I work both sides of lower middle market M&A in the $1M to $10M range. Buyers acquiring their first or next business. Owners getting exit-ready, then through the deal.On the buy side, I run a managed acquisition process. Active on-market outreach and off-market campaigns. CIM evaluation in minutes, not hours. I create offers on price and terms, package deals for lenders, and work the 80-item closing checklist that keeps deals alive after LOI. My clients have $200K to $1M income,$250K to $3M investable, and real intent to close in the next six to twelve months. Not everyone should be buying a business yet. I only take people I believe can close.On the sell side, I work with owners at $2M to $10M in enterprise value. Two modes. Near-term sellers ready to list. And longer-horizon owners who need twelve to thirty-six months of preparation before the business is actually worth what they think it is. Financial prep is the obvious work. Figuring out life after close is the harder work.Quick background. CFA charterholder, Certified Business Broker, 200+ transactions worked across buy-side and sell-side. Two years leading the Contrarian Community at Contrarian Thinking, where I reviewed deals and coached buyers every day.I also run a Main Street operating business. Not a flex. It means I know what Monday morning looks like for the owners I work with, and what the night before an LOI feels like for a first-time buyer.If you\'re serious about acquiring a business in the $1M to $10M range, or preparing for an exit, DM me. I\'ll tell you honestly whether we should talk.
Experience
Owner
Feb 2021 — Present · Sacramento, CA, US
Acquired a closed-down laundromat in Woodland, CA and turned it into the #1 laundromat in Yolo County within 12 months. Then acquired a second location in Sacramento in July 2022. We have a great team in place that allows me to spend my \"laundromat time\" focusing on marketing and business development.
