Pending

WebsiteClosers® presents a highly successful 22-year-old Online IT Staffing Agency known for building lasting, strong relationships with both their internal team and a wide array of clients. Specializing in contract, contract-to-hire, and direct placement services, the agency focuses primarily on the IT sector, serving mid to upper-market organizations.

Their impressive track record in the healthcare industry spans two decades, providing staffing solutions to hospitals and healthcare providers. Beyond healthcare, the agency has made significant strides in sectors such as retail, manufacturing, non-profits, local government, airlines, and more. They hold a federal government Cage number, enabling them to support federal contracts, and have previously partnered with the Department of Energy.

With a broad national presence, boasting placements in 40 states in the U.S., this agency has untapped growth potential both domestically and internationally. Their established footprint in multiple industries positions them for continued expansion and success in the ever-growing IT staffing market.

The Company’s Growth

Though their average contract values vary greatly based on size and demand from their clients, most clients will start out with one placement and grow over time. Their contract value can start at $100,000 and grow to multi-millions in value, with permanent placements averaging an 18% fee on salaries.

The average customer contract length, meanwhile, falls between 6 to 12 months, while many have continually renewed for more than 10 years. The brand operates any contract from short term, at about 1 month, to a full 12 months, which is renewable annually. Their contract-to-hire conversion is after 1,000 hours worked.

Scale Opportunities

There is potential for substantial growth in this brand’s future, which could be approached with several different tactics. One strategy the buyer should consider would be a strategic expansion of the sales team, as by combining the strengths of their core team with an expanded sales force and enhanced lead generation efforts, they could better position themselves as a dynamic player in the market and more easily capitalize on emerging opportunities and gain a stronger foothold in established markets.

The company might also consider other staffing lines, including Accounting and Healthcare, and creating and growing a strong partner community. They could also promote cross-selling among their existing client base, bolstering the revenue that they’re currently generating from their most loyal consumers.

Conclusion

This acquisition offers an exceptionally established brand based off a foundation that has been 22 years in the making. With their deep-seated customer relationships, a growing national presence, and a senior, proven team at their heart, this deal offers the buyer the rare opportunity to acquire a highly seasoned brand that still has a wealth of potential waiting for it. Additionally, the current CEO/co-owner is willing to stay on board and is open to different structures they feel make sense for the business moving forward, which will help the buyer more quickly adapt to their ownership role.

Business Broker Takeaways

Marketing, HR, Legal, and Finance are currently directly operated by contract services, with these contract relationships being long-standing ones with the company.

This puts them in a fantastic position to expand their portfolio lines and geographical locations.

3. They’ve built a strong marketing strategy. The brand currently utilizes marketing consultants from Creative Dreams Agency by way of Think Global Holdings. These are personal relationships with the owners and are available to continue with the buyer. The company has supplemented their partnership with this agency by building their online community to over 40,000 followers, using social media to promote their culture and posting company jobs online, primarily on LinkedIn.
