What is an M&A teaser?

A short anonymous summary of a business for sale, sent to potential buyers before they sign an NDA and receive the CIM.

What goes in a teaser?

Sector, region, size ranges, investment highlights, what's on offer, and how to take the next step. Never the company's name.

How long should a teaser be?

One or two pages. Its only job is to make the right buyers want to sign the NDA.

What happens after a buyer signs the NDA?

They receive the CIM and access to the data room. TalkOctopus gives each buyer their own link and tracks what they read.
