Case Studies

Oaklyn Consulting brought senior-level attention and analytical rigor to every stage of the process. They understood my business, ran a thoughtful and disciplined sale process and helped me make sound decisions when it mattered. I couldn't have asked for a better team in my corner.”

(If) you've never been through this before, you've never done it before, frankly you're out of your depth and you're lost, you need someone that's going to pilot this through with you, as sort of the copilot, and your mentor and advisor. I absolutely feel very strongly that that's the role that Oaklyn Consulting played for me, and I would always recommend them.”

Oaklyn Consulting did a great job for us on Axial. The unfortunate outcome there had everything to do with the company's situation and the market environment. The board and investors all agree on what a thorough, professional, top-notch job Oaklyn Consulting did for us. I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again and in fact will look for opportunities to do so.”

That was the real value of Oaklyn Consulting, being able to add them to the deal midstream. If you’re in that situation, I think Oaklyn Consulting is a great fit.”

If you’re on the fence, I would say meet Frank and his team. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering selling their company, even if they’re just exploring their options.”

Without him, I wouldn’t have gotten these deals done. There’s no question in my mind.”

Eighty years of family history does not get sold in a hurry. Oaklyn Consulting understood that from the first conversation.”

Oaklyn Consulting told us to pause when everything in me wanted to keep moving. Six weeks later, we closed clean. That advice was worth more than the process itself.”

We really appreciated your willingness to adapt to the unique nature of our engagement — i.e., advising both sides — rather than forcing us into a typical approach.”

It was a very helpful professional experience. You are very knowledgeable and explained how you work transparently, even offering that you were probably not a good match. That is rare. Most people try to force-fit their model to every opportunity.”

As I stated many times during our conversations, I so appreciate you and your team for interceding throughout this transaction. It made such an incredible difference!”

Excellent setup and organization of data as well as business-level guidance for transactions.”

Candidly — I appreciated that you were thoughtful about when and where to engage knowing that we had sensitivities to fees. It often felt like you’d give us tools we could use to work through things on our own and then jump back in as needed to add value where you uniquely could.”

You continue to be my go-to for business owners thinking about their business options. I appreciate your approach and everyone I have sent you has said good things.”
