\nLead dealmaker Joseph Sabet swiftly identified the US company Telarix as the ideal buyer. With the acquisition of an in-house solution from Starhome, Telarix would no longer have to outsource financial clearing. Joseph recognized that the acquisition would enable Telarix to bring Starhome solutions to its 4000 customers, significantly improving its margins and broadening its product range.
\nAs an advisor Joseph introduced the parties and got the buyer interested. With the logical buyer identified at the start of the process, Joseph was able to avoid a distracting and arduous auction process and successfully turned the buyer interest into a closed deal.<\/p>\n
