Strategic advisors to founders in marketing and technology, for growth & M&A
We partner with founders at every stage, providing clarity, direction and confidence to build, grow and achieve.
Every milestone matters
Helping founders navigate every milestone, from first move to final exit.
Every founder's journey is shaped by defining moments, pivotal points where timing, judgement and direction determine what comes next.
While many key milestones are planned, others arrive unexpectedly. What matters is having the clarity and confidence to move forward, knowing each step is strengthening what comes after.
Milestone Advisory is the partner founders rely on to navigate those moments.

Frequently asked questions
What does Milestone Advisory do?
We are a boutique UK M&A and growth advisory firm for founders in marketing, creative, technology and data. We help owners grow, buy, sell and raise capital, combining board-level strategy with hands-on deal execution. We work across UK and US markets.
Do you work with sellers or buyers?
Both. We advise founders selling their business (sell-side), founders and management teams growing through acquisition (buy-side), and we support growth advisory and fundraising for founders who are not yet transacting.
Do you work in the US as well as the UK?
We work across UK, EU and US markets. We have a key strategic partner in the US called Madison Alley, giving us additional market knowledge and buyer access.
What makes a business more valuable or more attractive to buyers?
Recurring, retained revenue is the single biggest valuation lever. Low client concentration, repeatable IP or methodology, delivery depth beyond one or two founders, and demonstrable commercial outcomes all lift value. Client concentration is the most common value killer. AI maturity is now a real driver too.
What deals have you advised on?
Recent transactions include Bright Innovation joining Talan UK, Re:signal's acquisition of Root Digital, Benchmark Group's sale of NSE to Esports Global Fund, Bohr's growth investment from Hartree Partners, and the sale of Yodel Mobile to NP Digital. See our deals for the full list.
