Magic Box Paradigm: A Framework for Startup Acquisitions - Paperback

What if I told you that the last thing you want from a potential acquirer is a term sheet? Or that the casualty of a bidding war is often going to be you? Or the presentation you should use when you meet with investors is quite different from the one you should use with potential strategic partners? Or that moves a buyer may make to reduce their risk in an acquisition can end up increasing the chance that they don't achieve the full potential of the combination?

Startup acquisitions are counterintuitive. Yet that doesn't mean they're impossible to navigate. Quite the contrary, the Magic Box Paradigm (MBP) is your guide to creating, optimizing, and closing startup acquisitions.

The MBP is a holistic approach to creating opportunities for your startup to be acquired-the blueprint for being bought not sold. The MBP is going to put you in a position of strength in conversations with potential strategic partners, show you how to inspire them to create an actionable acquisition thesis, and then how to turn that thesis into an outperforming offer. Once the offer is on the table, the MBP is going to give you the tools to close the deal.
