Cornerstone
Cornerstone Business Services is a boutique investment bank serving the lower middle market of mergers & acquisitions. We’re based in the Midwest but work throughout North America, and are a founding member of the Cornerstone International Alliance. We create value through acquisition searches, company sales, and valuations, with a focus on businesses with $5M to $150M in annual revenue or $1M to $15M EBITDA. Cornerstone uses a team approach on each transaction along with our proprietary Assurance 360™ process which typically generates multiple offers, a high likelihood to close and maximizes value.
Crews & Co.
Crews & co. is a management consulting firm helping ready-to-scale, seven-figure businesses achieve their first $10M, $20M, or $50M year. Using the Growth Method, our proprietary business operating system, we help companies increase their revenue, profitability, and salable asset value. Through in-house resources and a curated partner network, we also offer entrepreneurs everything they need to grow their business: finance services, recruiting, HR, marketing, wealth management, M&A, and more.
Growth Avenue
Growth Avenue is a boutique board advisory firm built for entrepreneurial CEOs navigating the full business lifecycle. We guide leaders through three stages: Plant (capital strategy, customer and offer validation), Grow (scaling teams, revenue, and operations), and Exit (readiness and liquidity events). With 30 years of operator experience, we’ve built, scaled, and exited companies with industry-leading multiples. Unlike consultants who hand off playbooks, we deliver board-level, practical counsel tailored to each client’s goals. Growth Avenue gives CEOs the clarity, confidence, and velocity to make the right decisions, enhance enterprise value, and accelerate their path to exit.Bronze
