Kairos · the right moment to sell

Sell your MSP at its peak.

Kairos Value Partners gets MSP owners exit-ready. We find what's capping your valuation, build the value a buyer pays a premium for, and advise you through the sale itself, so you sell at the moment of greatest worth, not the moment you run out of road.

Kairos kai·ros · n.
The ancient Greek for The opportune moment: the right time to act, when the conditions are ripe and the window is open. The Greeks set it against chronos, mere clock time. A business sells for what it is worth at one particular moment. Our work is to get your MSP to its peak, and to make sure you are standing in it when the right buyer arrives.

The moment

Most owners sell on chronos. The premium lives in kairos.

Strong MSPs change hands at healthy multiples, often around 8x EBITDA in the right profile. But buyers pay that premium only for durable, recurring revenue and a company that runs without its founder, and they discount hard for everything else. Sell because the clock or your energy ran out, and you leave that premium on the table. Sell at the right moment, prepared, and you keep it.

Chronos · selling on the clock

Sell when you're tired

  • × Take the first broker's call once you're already burned out
  • × A business that still runs on you, so buyers price in the risk
  • × Revenue that isn't contracted, durable or diversified
  • × Find out what it's really worth only at the LOI
Kairos · selling at the moment

Sell from strength

  • Know your number, and the gap to it, years ahead
  • A business that runs without you, so buyers pay a premium
  • Durable, recurring, contracted revenue across more than one channel
  • Walk into the sale already prepared, negotiating with leverage
How it works

Four steps to the moment. One relationship to the exit.

We start with a free value assessment and, if it's a fit, stay with you all the way to the sale. You pick where to start. The work compounds the longer we're in it.

01

Assess

The free Value Assessment: a buyer's-eye read on what your MSP is worth today, what's capping the multiple, and the shortest path to closing the gap.

02

Build

Deep-dive workshops and a fractional CRO/CFO in the seat, building durable recurring revenue, healthier margin, and an operation that no longer depends on you.

03

Run

Quarterly strategy sessions plus monthly coaching and accountability, so the value keeps compounding between the big moves, not just during them.

04

Sell

When you're ready, we guide and advise you through the sale itself: preparation, positioning and process, so you negotiate from strength.

What's included

Six ways we work. Pick your entry point.

Start with the free assessment, or jump in wherever the need is sharpest. Every engagement can graduate into the next, all pointing at the same outcome: a more valuable, more sellable MSP.

The team

Pedigree that reads a business. Hands that build it.

Kairos Value Partners is led by Alexej Pikovsky, a private-equity-trained operator who now buys and builds businesses of his own. He acquired and scaled consumer brand 96 North, sits in the MSP operator's seat as a fractional CRO, and spent a decade in investment banking, a family office and private equity, closing $7bn+ of M&A and seeing a portfolio company through to a full sale. He reads a company exactly the way its buyer will, then does the operator's work to make it worth more.

The idea behind the name

The Greeks had a god for the right moment.

They called him Kairos: the fleeting, opportune instant when timing and conditions line up. He was carved mid-stride, always arriving, because the moment is something you meet as it comes or miss entirely.

Selling a business is the same. Its worth peaks at one particular moment, when the revenue is durable, the company runs without you, and the right buyer is ready to pay for it. Reach that point early and prepared, and you sell from strength. That is the whole job.
