A Message from our Founder
Beth DaSilva is the Founder and President of Fleetridge Pacific. She has over 20 years experience managing and advising healthcare companies and has successfully completed hundreds of healthcare business transactions.
For many of us, our business is our most valuable and our most precious asset. It’s where we spend all of our time. It drives us to get up early and stay up late. We pour heart and soul into it. We started the business because we saw a need for a service and thought we could not only fill a void but could provide something more comprehensive than our competitors. We were laser focused to bring much needed services to those who need us most.
Fleetridge Pacific was founded on those same principles. After working through a transaction for the sale of my mom’s home health agency, I felt there was a genuine need to help founders address not only the financial aspect, but the legacy and emotional aspect of the transaction. At Fleetridge, we work to understand what drives you and what is most important to you in transitioning all or part of your business to a new owner.
On our first meeting, we will gather information about your company and your goals in a transaction. From the information we gather, we will provide our honest opinions and advice and present you with options that are based on our many years of experience executing transactions in healthcare. Once engaged, we create a market for your agency or practice. With almost 20 years in business, we have developed an impressive list of contacts and potential buyers. Our goal is always to bring multiple offers so you can determine what is the best fit for you and your employees. We work with you every step of the way and remain easily accessible to answer your questions and calm your fears.
Before providing a potential buyer with any information about your business, we have them sign a confidentiality agreement and vet each and every one for not only their financial capability but also to understand their experience and expertise in running a business similar to yours. Prior to entertaining offers, we want to make sure interested buyers have the necessary information to complete a transaction at the valuation and terms they express in their offer. I refer to it as “working through a transaction” because it is hard work and something that should not be entered into unless you are convinced it is your best option. Throughout the process we value and guard your time by communicating directly with the potential buyers to determine fitness and viability before sending you their questions or making introductions.
Unlike many other firms, we work specifically with business founders, owners and operators. The clients we prefer to work with entered healthcare services as professionals whose goal was to help people by bringing comfort and healing. They realize that their staff and clients have helped to make the business successful and value them dearly. We place great value on our clients and always strive to help them successfully reach their goals while realizing the full value of what they have built.
