Our Approach
Seven Springs Approach
Simply put, we buy and build great service businesses. Our goal is to expand upon the foundation of prior owners’ successes and propel businesses into their next phase of growth. People and processes can make or break a business – we approach all critical decisions with tenacity, humility, and measured conviction, understanding when to stay the course and when to switch gears.
Seven Springs Values
We are owner-operators who espouse “family” values of loyalty, respect, and integrity to achieve long-term success. Our operational experiences have provided the background to effectively run businesses with the highest level of professionalism, prioritizing strategic decisions which simultaneously create value over time and foster a team culture. We have grown our employee bases over time and significantly improved employee retention rates through job description clarity and ample opportunity for career progression.
Seven Springs Advantage
Our proven track record has enabled us to work flexibly and transparently with owners to create mutually beneficial exit opportunities. In addition, our deep pool of investors and advisors with experience across many business sectors share our passion for small and mid-sized businesses: these expansive resources help us map out the path to the future.
