Why analog ideal

your Legacy Comes First.
My name is Bill Stafford and I am looking to partner with a business where I can add value and steward for the long term. While my background comes from the finance world, my passion lies with the stories of small businesses and their owners.
I prove myself by rolling up my sleeves, earning trust, and letting my actions speak louder than my words. I aim to carry forward the values that made businesses successful in the first place rather than change them: its people, its principles, and its culture.
If you are open to a conversation about the future of your business, I would be honored to connect. I have partnered with a network of financial supporters and can move forward with a clear and defined path to partnership within two to four months.

Investment Criteria
Not every business will check every box and that’s okay. I’m looking for the right fit, one with shared values and an owner I can respectfully partner with for the next chapter.

Originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, I grew up around small business owners and know first hand what it takes to provide peace of mind to them and their family as they consider their future.
