I help you build the value of your business, of the capital it generates and of your personal wealth, and get clear on your life direction. An acquirer’s eye, an entrepreneur’s experience.
One hour by video call. Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Prefer to start on your own? The four-area score is available in French.
The moment
Your business is profitable, or you have already sold it. You have cash, and you’ve hit a limit: on growth, on purpose or on time.
Your business is profitable
“Where does my next euro go?”
Cash builds up in the company. You are still caught up in the day-to-day. Reinvest, acquire, build a portfolio, stay liquid: every option makes sense, and nothing is decided.
You have sold your business
“What now?”
The capital is there. You want to protect it without slowing down, and start a new project that reflects who you are.
For you if your business makes at least €100k in EBITDA on average over three years, or if you have already sold a business.
Not for you if you are starting out, or if your business is struggling: that calls for different expertise.
The acquirer’s eye
I acquire profitable French companies and appoint managing directors to run them. I screen every company against my investment thesis.
I pursue about one in fifty.
In every company, I look at three things:
What depends on you. The clients who leave, and the sales and decisions that stop, when you are away.
What could bring it all down. One client who accounts for too much of the revenue, a contract that is not in the company’s name, a forgotten personal guarantee.
What your business is worth to someone other than you. Its real value, once a managing director is paid at market rate.
I apply this lens to your business. Then to your decisions: where the next euro goes, and what you do with the next year.
The four areas
Your business is only the first area. Every decision a business owner makes also affects the company’s capital, your personal wealth and the life you want to lead.
Time and meaningIIIIIIIVMake it solid, able to run without you, and valuable.
Cash invested in the company’s name, with its borrowing power: it creates passive income for the company and increases its value.
What you build in your own name, with what the company pays you: your own sources of passive income.
Your life choices, your mission, what you really want next.
All four serve the same goal: giving you back time, and giving that time meaning.
“If you disappeared for three months, what would happen?”
It is the first question I ask about any business I might buy. Ask it about yours. In the discovery session, we go through the other three areas as well.

Who I am
Buying businesses taught me one thing: the value of a business shows in what it becomes once its owner steps away.
Before that, I ran e-commerce companies with more than a million euros in revenue, then a communications agency that only worked when I was there. Contracts only came in when I was in the field. Projects only moved when I handled every client myself.
I paid for these mistakes in time and money. Today, I delegate a large part of the day-to-day to teams and to AI. I keep my time for two things: analysing companies to acquire, and advising business owners.
I am your sparring partner. I play as if I were your business partner: I challenge your choices, I tell you what I would do in your place, and you decide.
Companies, stakes and investments
What I share
What people say
“Jerome isn’t just an entrepreneur – he’s a true strategist who applies investor thinking to business building. […] He helps entrepreneurs turn their businesses into long-term, wealth-generating assets – not just revenue machines.”
The rules
I look at your business as if my own money were in it. I ask the uncomfortable questions, I challenge your choices and I tell you what I would do in your place. The decision stays yours.
Your figures, your doubts, your plans: nothing leaves our sessions. I never talk about your case in public without your written consent.
I buy businesses, and I say so from the start. If you want to sell yours and it fits my investment thesis, I tell you so straight away, in writing. The engagement stops, Kairos is refunded, and we continue as buyer and seller.
To begin
If an answer comes to mind, it is a good subject for our first hour together.
