Growth Achievement Partners & Zygoquest Group form Strategic Alliance to Spearhead Managed Service Provider (MSP) acquisitions
Philadelphia and Kansas City – February 2015 – Mike Dudek of Zygoquest Group “seeking to unite” and Mitch Morgan of Growth Achievement Partners have announced a strategic alliance to assist office equipment business owners with acquisitions of Managed Services Providers (MSPs). Zygoquest is the foremost authority on mergers and acquisitions in the office equipment industry, while Growth Achievement Partners is the recognized leader for advising office equipment dealers on successful Managed Services business development.
Mitch Morgan and Chris Ryne of Growth Achievement Partners and Mike Dudek and Rich Wisniewski of Zygoquest have combined their expertise to advise industry owners and executives on Managed Services acquisitions so owners can take advantage of the abundant growth and profit opportunities available. This affiliation brings together the best of both worlds - deep acquisition expertise from Zygoquest and longstanding Managed Services experience from Growth Achievement Partners.
“We are pleased to combine our expertise for the benefit of the industry,” noted Morgan. “Mike Dudek has completed more acquisitions than anyone in the industry, by a big margin. Simply stated, Mike and Rich know how to get deals done.”
“My working relationship with Mitch began nearly 20 years ago when we acquired his IT Services business, IKON Office Solutions. I consider him to be the preeminent authority on Managed Services within the office equipment industry, and we are pleased to join forces. Mitch and Chris have a deep understanding of all aspects of the business.”
Growth Achievement Partners and Zygoquest will launch their strategic alliance by contacting top U.S. office equipment dealers interested in accelerated Managed Services success through acquisition. This strategic alliance provides owners with end-to-end services from target identification and solicitation, to analysis, valuation, negotiation, structure, and legal services, through integration activities to maximize growth opportunities. Growth Achievement Partners and Zygoquest will also represent select MSPs for sale.
“We believe the time is right for this alliance,” said Dudek. “Our services include a full range of mergers and acquisitions activities. Dealer principals we work with have expressed increasing interest in Managed Services acquisitions to capitalize on this attractive growth market. Acting as acquisition advisors, we have developed deep relationships within the industry and believe this collaboration will allow the office equipment industry to emerge as leaders in the market.”
“Many dealers have entered the Managed Services arena, experienced some success, and are seeking accelerated entry into the market. We have assisted several clients with successful MSP acquisitions and integration through the utilization of our Managed Services Business Model, and GAP Methodologies & Toolkit” said Morgan. “Collaborating with Zygoquest brings unprecedented experience, expertise, and scalability in terms of transaction volume and capabilities.”
Mitch Morgan, Mike Dudek, Chris, Ryne and Rich Wisniewski will launch their campaign nationwide with a series of live presentations and webinars throughout the industry. Interested parties should contact Mike Dudek and Mitch Morgan to initiate their MSP acquisition.
