Our EXPERIENCE
During the last several years, The Bigelow Company has closed over $3 billion in transactions ranging in size from $30 to $350 million. Almost always, the enterprise value of our client firms is in the $50 million range or larger, allowing us to bring our unique abilities and relationships to most effect.
We are proud of our strong relationships with other expert advisors to owner-managed companies – some of the nation's finest lawyers, accountants, management consultants, board members, and wealth advisors.
We Believe in the Discipline of
MULTIPLE INDUSTRY Experience
At Bigelow, we are not limited by a focus on a single vertical industry. We used to think having more and more data or information in a specific vertical industry might result in wisdom. Over the years—motivated by our clients' experiences—we have changed our minds. Candidly, we don't want to be narrowed by any lack of wide-ranging experience.
Our track record is that we leverage hard won experiences and creativity earned in multiple industries to bring fresh perspectives and inspired solutions to client challenges in other industries.

Further, experience suggests that the largest determinant for success is not knowing the most about the client's industry; after all, clients are the experts there. Rather, success results from gaining an intimate understanding of the client's personal and professional goals, and then using that understanding to find the best fit investor (which values the firm highly and increases the probability of sustainability of the business). The fact that we don't repeat our experiences in one industry over and over means that unlike some of our competitors, we are completely objective — and conflict free.
"At The Bigelow Company, we measure success by the quality of our clients and the longevity of our client relationships – as well as by our track record for exceeding our clients' expectations. In several instances, we have successfully represented the same company multiple times over a number of years – creating great value for both stockholders, managements, and other stakeholders."
