Video Above: If you're trying to sell your managed services provider (MSP) business to a private equity firm or strategic buyer, you'll need to share multiple KPIs (key performance indicators) with potential suitors.

About Evergreen Services Group
Evergreen, backed by a private equity investment firm, has acquired 13 MSPs between January and November 2018, and more deals are coming.
- Six of the acquisitions involved "platform" MSPs -- service providers that are large enough to potentially dominate a specific geographic region, vertical market or particular technology sector.
- Seven of the acquisitions are tuck-in deals -- essentially, MSPs that will tuck into the platform MSPs.
