FOCUS
APPROACH
We focus on established businesses with solid fundamentals and opportunities for long-term growth. Departing owners often play a pivotal role in daily operations and we take their learnings and perspective to heart during any engagement.
Untapped Potential
We value opportunities that have yet to adopt digital best practices or marketing processes.
Proven Track Record
We look for stable revenue streams, straightforward value propositions, and a profitable history.
Transitioning Leadership
We prefer to fullly operate the businesses we buy - looking for 100% ownership.
Lower Middle Market
We are open to modest deal sizes - we enjoy evaluating businesses overlooked by institutional investors.
OUR VISION
We're passionate about small businesses - not financial engineering. The opportunities that get us excited provide real, tangible value to the communities and people they touch. We want to build solutions that create a win for everyone.
With every engagement, we recognize the vital role played by the current owner. In many cases the business represents a life's work, not merely a financial transaction. We're committed to continuing that legacy by working closely with the seller to ensure a smooth transition for both customers and employees while preserving the reputation and relationships that have made the business successful.
After an acquisition, we focus on investment - not cost-cutting. Sustained, healthy growth is our top priority.
Note on Funding
In order to enable this focus, North Range LLC is prepared to provide long-term equity capital for most opportunities from funds currently on hand. To allow flexibility, we also retain the option to operate as an independent sponsor, assembling a customized group of trusted investors to fit the unique needs of larger businesses.
ABOUT US
Growing up in rural Oregon, Patrick worked on farms and construction crews to pay his way through college. Most recently, he worked as a technology executive in Seattle managing a large, cross-functional team to build and scale solutions designed to make the world a better place. Previously, he worked with an independent startup backed by blue chip investors - a team eventually acquired by Google in 2014. Patrick continued working there, managing efforts in both product development and strategic partnerships.
Patrick was also honored to serve as a Captain in the United States Marine Corps where he led both intelligence and infantry units during deployments to Afghanistan and the Pacific Rim. Beforehand, he worked for an economic development project with the United Nations and a small aerospace manufacturer in Washington State. Patrick holds an MBA from Harvard Business School.
Today, when not working or with his young family, he can often be found in the mountains snowboarding or hiking.
