From our Clients

Target Door & supply ACQUIRED BY laforce

"Selling a business you've built from scratch is not a straightforward thing. It can be very emotional and exhausting. There were moments where I wasn't sure how it would land, and Triscend kept us grounded. They knew what mattered to me beyond the deal terms, and that never was lost in the back-and-forth. Having someone who understood both our business and the industry meant I could continue to focus on my day job, which made a real difference in the outcome."

- Russell Ingram, Founder and prior Owner of Target Door

“I was fortunate to have John’s guidance from day one when we first had the opportunity to partner and transact with IOS. I wasn’t sure what to expect, and the process seemed daunting and stressful at times. Having a dedicated advisor who could walk me through every aspect of the deal, manage the due diligence process, and advocate for my interests on all critical issues made a huge difference in the outcome. John’s steady presence and deep expertise gave me confidence every step of the way.”
