Building Value

in the Middle Market

Our Approach

Our Criteria

Our Process

Turning Leaf is guided by the belief that it is possible to do well while doing good.  Our focus is with acquisition opportunities where we can add value beyond the current numbers. 

Unlike most investment companies, Turning Leaf was founded by partners with decades of operational management experience in all lifecycles of business. Our experience spans finance, strategy, marketing, and operations giving us a different perspective to partnering with business leaders to maximize business opportunities.

We work with middle market companies in the technology and ecommerce sectors that have:

  • EBITDA $1 Million to $10 Million

  • Revenue up to $75 Million

  • Controlling Interest

  • History of Profitability

  • Founder / Family Owned

  • In the Eastern USA

  • In Medium to Large Markets

A Turning Leaf investment encompasses more than just capital. Our operational experience, relationships, and approaches can guide leadership teams toward long-term value creation for owners and investors. 

We do business the right way - with honesty and transparency.  We look beyond the numbers to see the value of a company's process, people and culture to support growth. And we work hard to be fast, responsive and flexible throughout the process.

We See Things a Little Differently

We partner with talented leadership teams to accelerate the growth of companies that are built to last. Drawing on our experience and relationships in building and leading successful companies, we act as advisors to accelerate the growth of each portfolio company and achieve the leadership team’s long-term vision for the future.
