For advisors
You have a client this was built for.
If you serve business owners, you have met this company: excellent, profitable, and impossible to sell, transfer, or step away from, because it lives in its founder's head. EUMENON exists for exactly that client, and it works alongside you, not around you.
The shared problem
Owner dependence kills your outcomes too.
You see it from your own side of the table: the mandate that stalls in diligence, the estate plan resting on a business that only works while the client does, the family transition where the heir inherits a job instead of an asset.
M&A ADVISORS AND BROKERS
The dependence discount is your discount. A client whose company demonstrably runs without them goes to market with evidence instead of an earnout negotiation, and a mandate you could not take becomes one you can.
ACCOUNTANTS AND ATTORNEYS
Succession plans you draft assume operating continuity someone has to actually provide. An engineered successor, with authority and confidentiality settled in writing, gives the plan an operator, and gives you a record to point to.
WEALTH AND EXIT PLANNERS
The client's largest asset is illiquid because it is keyed to them personally. Independence engineering moves the asset toward the liquidity and timing your plan assumes, whether or not a sale ultimately happens.
The arrangement
Engineering fees only. The relationship stays yours.
EUMENON's fees are engineering fees: a fixed foundation, monthly operation, and a fixed contingent build fee tied to measured results. Our only fees are the three published fees, so your economics and your mandate are untouched.
The client relationship stays yours. Our work product for your purposes is the company's own record: the evidence of what runs without the founder, produced the way the proof page describes, in a form a diligence process can examine. Discretion is default; client identity and records stay private unless the client authorizes disclosure.
Because the owner remains the source of company facts, objectives, access, and engagement authority, the advisor pathway is deliberately a briefing pathway: you bring the situation, we walk you through fit and mechanics, and the owner confirms the facts before anything becomes an engagement.
The pathway
Three steps to a useful conversation.
-
Run the fit screen in the advisor path.
Answer for the client company as best you know it. The screen assembles the situation into a structured summary, private to your browser, that you control.
-
Send it only if you want the briefing.
Nothing transmits on its own. If you are authorized to share the situation, the prefilled email opens a direct conversation with Jake: fit, mechanics, and what an engagement would ask of your client.
-
Bring the owner when it is real.
The owner confirms the company facts, the objective, access, and authority. From there the engagement follows the standard staged process.
Next
Start with the client you were thinking of.
The advisor path of the fit screen takes about ten minutes and is private to your browser until you choose to send it. A one-line email works too.
