Oliver successfully provided acquisition consulting services for Weblux, Inc., a digital marketing firm. Despite this being Weblux's first time purchasing a digital marketing agency, Oliver's expertise in marketing and web development agencies proved invaluable. They assisted Weblux in evaluating the industry and the available deals, mediating conversations with the seller, and providing guidance on relevant topics. Oliver also shared best practices for such transactions, facilitated the due diligence process, and reviewed the purchase agreement. The collaboration, which began in October 2020, concluded in January 2021 upon completion of the transaction.

In another project, Oliver was instrumental in assisting a B2B demand generation and marketing agency with their business sale. The agency wanted to sell at a price that was agreeable to all parties. Oliver began by interviewing the business, then marketed it anonymously to potential buyers. They also helped with accounting matters and offered financial services to ensure the books were correct. With Oliver's help, the agency received several proposals and finally accepted one. The due diligence process took a few months, but Oliver was there throughout, facilitating the deal. The engagement began in June 2020 and concluded in April 2021 when the deal was closed.

Oliver also provided business consulting services to Frontic Leads, a company that aids digital entrepreneurs in buying and selling agencies. The goal was to sell the marketing agency. Oliver was chosen for their high ratings, budget-friendly pricing, and good value for cost. A team of 6-10 employees was assigned to the project. Oliver's key deliverables included a comprehensive analysis of the agency's strengths, a tailored marketing strategy to attract potential buyers, establishing a strong network, conducting thorough due diligence, and assisting with negotiation. Ultimately, they achieved a successful sale and ensured a smooth transition for both parties involved.
