About Tim Templeton

As an Advisor at Trivest, I work directly with business owners and M&A professionals (CPA’s, Attorneys, Business Advisors, etc.) to determine if Trivest’s philosophy, approach and values match a founder’s goals and objectives. Whether a founder is seeking a strategic partnership for growth, sale of part or all of their business, or transition to family or management team members, Trivest ensures that their ideals and philosophies are not compromised. Trivest is the oldest Private Equity firm in the Southeast and partners exclusively with family and founder-owned companies through a controlling or non-controlling interest by establishing a strategic partnership to increase valuation, while also preserving the company’s legacy.What Sets Trivest Apart from our Peers:⎷ We are an Honest Partner – Trivest is open, fair, and honest in all our dealings. What’s best for the company is always paramount. We invest in people (not companies), while embracing the company’s legacy. ⎷ We Preserve Company Culture – We don’t “parachute” Trivest employees into your company post-closing to run operations. Instead, we serve as active board members that allow management teams the flexibility to operate. Our model allows business owners to remain in the driver’s seat throughout our partnership.⎷ We “Just Say No” to Common Unfair Transaction Practices - While many PE firms take advantage of founders by re-trading at the eleventh hour, requiring earnouts and creating unfair capital structures that burden the company with debt, Trivest has a policy of saying no to these and other unfair tactics. ⎷ We Add Value – Trivest’s proprietary value creation program (“Path to 3x”) is a proven growth strategy specifically tailored to meet each company’s needs, with the goal to triple the size of the business in 3-5 years.⎷ After partnering with Trivest, more than 60 founders have gone on to invest their capital in Trivest’s funds.I am fortunate that I am able to give back to my community by serving on several boards, as well as coordinating annual events to honor our first responders and veterans. As an avid rucker and member of F3 I keep active by participating in endurance events lasting six to 24 hours. If you, a client of yours, or a person you know is seeking an equity partner who will approach the ownership transaction in an honest, ethical, and fair way, contact Tim Templeton today at t••••••••@trivest.com or 85••••••03.
