The Never-Ending Deal

WHEN WILL THIS END? Ah, the question every dealmaker asks at some point. M&A deals will hit walls—unexpected delays, emotional sellers, nervous buyers, financing hiccups, diligence curveballs. It’s part of the process. But here’s the key: don’t panic. Don’t rush. Don’t lose sight of the goal. The best advisors don’t just close deals—they guide clients through the rough patches with strategy, calm, and a relentless focus on the end game. So when your deal hits a wall (and it will), remember: setbacks are temporary. The right team keeps things moving.
