What our clients say about us!

"I worked with Shelley at SSA Global on many acquisitions as part of our consolidation strategy and afterwards at Cerberus and Kingswood on several prospective investments in the technology and managed services industries.  I found him to be an exceptional businessman and deal professional who adds a fresh perspective to situations.  He brings a unique combination of business understanding and transactional experience to each project and is certain to add value to situations he is involved in."
 Alex Wolf, Managing Partner at Kingswood Capital (Los Angeles, CA.) (former Managing Director at Cerberus Capital Management)

"Heading up Geac's international legal department I found Shelley to be strategic, detailed and fair in his approach to all business activities. During his tenure, Shelley was a key contributor in all our acquisitions, which were a significant part of Geac's growth and success strategy. He was instrumental in the integration process where he recovered millions of dollars through post closing claims." 
Stephen Sadler, Chairman & CEO Enghouse Systems  (Markham. ON) (former Vice-Chair & CEO of Geac Computer Corporation)

"Shelley was the leader of our acquisition team charged with implementing our 'acquire market share, develop customer share' strategy. Our plan was to grow the company 700% to over a billion dollars in revenue in less than 5 years in order to become an acquisition target.  He reviewed over a hundred opportunities at SSA and was exposed to a host of "why they were in trouble" situations. In the end, we achieved our strategic goal with the help of Shelley and his M&A prowess. He is very much an out of the box thinker, a reliable closer and a team player."

Michael Greenough, CEO Granbury Technologies, Inc. (Granbury, TX) (former CEO SSA Global)

"We sold our travel business with the help of Shelley. We retained him almost a year prior to the deal closing to help us achieve what we wanted. In addition to providing valuable business advise to minimize our exposure, he helped in all other areas, including saving us significant taxes that our accountants failed to provide a solution for. We never thought strategy came into play in the selling of our company, but Shelley used it to find ways to extract more value for us."

Paul Arlin, President of Campus Vacations (Toronto, ON)

"Shelley help us expand and diversify by acquiring a US apparel business. His insight caused us to consider a host of important issues we never contemplated.  He is a forward thinker and 'cover all the bases' with a very practical approach."
Sony Nseiri, Treasurer PRL Design Group, Inc. (New York, NY)

"I was very impressed with Shelley's analytical and strategic approach combined with his negotiating skills. Shelley was our 'go-to' consultant on a variety of special projects for several years. He understood our motivation for the transaction, asked questions about things we never thought of and delivered what we need, while minimizing our risk and maximizing our upside potential. He also proved to be very valuable helping us to maximize our exit." 
Martin Ambrose, Pres & CEO Shoplogix (Burlington, ON), Pres & CEO Complia Health (Schamburg, IL)


"We engaged PoM to solve a problematic licensing agreement with a multimedia publishing company. Shelley identified a lack of strategic alignment with this company and helped us terminate the contract so we could seek a publisher that was aligned with us. He delivered everything he promised. His services would be a valuable asset to any company."
Leslie McGuirk, President of McGuirks Quirks (Vero Beach, FL)
