The Marcom M&A Market has changed 

ML Consulting advises owners, investors and acquirers across the global Marcom sector.
We combine specialist M&A experience with an AI adjusted approach to valuation – identifying what AI strengthens, what it threatens and what a buyer may pay a premium to acquire.

Introduction

Selling your agency for it’s strategic value not simply an EBIT multiple

Historic revenue and EBITDA remain important but they no longer tell the whole story.

Buyers now examine whether an agency’s service could be automated, whether its margins can be improved with the use of AI and whether its own capabilities cannot be easily copied.

ML Consulting helps agency owners identify these sources of value and address potential AI risks,

ML Consulting employs this same analytical approach to their new recruitment division.

About

Acquire the capabilities AI cannot easily recreate.

AI is changing the acquisition question; buyers are no longer looking for additional scale, office or headcount. They need specialist expertise, proprietary data, established client relationships, technology, talent and importantly, access to strategically important markets.

ML Consulting offers AI M&A Marcom experience and personal senior led advice.
