Stanford Keene
High Tech M&A, Do your homework first

I was previously employed by Stanford Keene. Stanfordkeene.com
They market themselves as high tech mergers and acquisition experts.

While I was there,
The standard pitch was to sell the "Keene base", a rather mystical database of contacts that only Stanford Keene has in the industry.in my opinion you might as well have the company secretary.

Managing Directors and Senior Associates there will tell clients that they have a 95% success rate.in reality less than 3 is more realistic.

Stanford Keene will take an up front project fee and they will write you a couple of documents using materials that you provided to them and then...

While I was there Charles Reynolds ran the company, he is a good salesman. If you have to deal with this guy make sure you ask him some hard questions about your industry and only let him answer. After all, he is the "expert" and has been dealing in your market and space for a "long time". Make sure you talk to him for more than 10 minutes.

I would also suggest that if you have any contacts in the Charlotte area financial world call them and ask about Bill Smith as well as Charles Reynolds.

Bill Smith is the head owner of Stanford Keene he also runs VentureWorx and Addison Whitney. I cannot speak about these companies but do know that they are all under his financial control.

I often felt that Stanford Keene was running a boiler room company model. Hire, Fire, repeat.
Stanford Keene offers employees no dental insurance, no matching 401k or pension.

Charles Reynolds brother heads Addison Whitney.
