This established outplacement and career transition company has been helping laid-off professionals find new roles since 2006. It operates fully remotely, serves clients across the U.S. and internationally, and generated about 881K in revenue and 343K in seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE) in 2025, with similar performance in the prior two years and consistent SDE margins around the high-30% range. The owner currently works roughly 30 hours per week, and the business carries no long-term debt or required real estate commitments.
Employers hire the firm to support employees affected by layoffs as part of their severance packages. Services include resume development, interview preparation, networking strategy, job search planning, and ongoing one-on-one career guidance. The company typically supports about 600 individuals per year and has helped more than 10,000 people over its history, with roughly 80% of revenue coming from repeat corporate clients in a variety of industries. Client satisfaction is strong, reflected in a 93% satisfaction rate and an 83 Net Promoter Score.
The team includes a group of experienced, mostly long-tenured part-time consultants and back-office staff, many of whom have backgrounds as executives, HR leaders, or recruiters. The operating model is flexible and largely variable-cost, with consultant time paid on an as-needed basis and many clients not using all of their allotted hours, which supports attractive margins and makes the business scalable without heavy fixed overhead. A new owner could grow the business by expanding executive coaching and HR consulting, adding recruiting services, increasing sales activity in current markets, or incorporating more digital tools while preserving the company’s high-touch approach.
