THE STEVENS GROUP is pleased to announce the launch of their new website, www.TheArtStevensGroup.com. Founded by Art Stevens in 2005, The Stevens Group (TSG) is at the forefront of reshaping the landscape of public relations agency mergers and acquisitions transactions. TSG’s new website has been designed to serve as a comprehensive resource for public relations agency professionals, offering insights and thought leadership on the latest trends and best practices in public relations agency M&A.

The Stevens Group’s extensive network of relationships with PR agency owners and CEOs, and relative newcomer PR agency buyers such as Private Equity firms and Family Offices throughout the U.S. and abroad, is one of the most often cited reasons why so many PR agency sellers have turned to TSG to guide them through the M&A process. They engage TSG to find them a buyer who will pay fair market value for their firm, who understands the value of their agency’s reputation, client relationships, industry expertise and compatibility in terms of culture and vision.

Companies interested in acquiring a public relations agency also will find TSG’s new website to be an invaluable tool when trying to determine how
best to assess a seller agency’s financial health, the status and quality of the agency’s relationships with its clients, and depth of its new business pipeline, an agency’s industry reputation, leadership quality, staff expertise, technological infrastructure, geographic reach, growth potential & cultural fit.

So join us now in welcoming our brand new website as it reflects who we are, what we do and why we’re among the most respected acquisitions facilitators in the public relations space. Take a look at what we’ve achieved, what our peers in the industry say about us and why PR agency sellers & buyers are engaging us for our services now more than ever.

MEET THE STEVENS GROUP:
Since 2005, The Stevens Group has helped more than 100 public relations agency owners successfully maneuver their way through the complex Mergers & Acquisitions process. That's our primary focus.

From the introductory meetings with buyer prospects, to the consummation of a deal, our clients always have a TSG partner by their side guiding them through every step along the way.

Our seller clients are owners of PR agencies with revenues anywhere from $1.5.M to $10s-of-millions. Most of our clients are selling for growth reasons. Some are selling as an exit strategy. All of them want the best deal possible for themselves and for their teams. That's why they come to us.

We negotiate top dollar for our clients' firms from buyers we find for them who share our clients' visions for the future and concern for maintaining company culture.

Over the years, The Stevens Group has been at the forefront of the evolution of the PR agency M&A market. Today, approximately twenty-five percent of the deals we do for clients involve buyers outside the PR agency community. We have developed deep and wide relationships at private equity firms and family offices who have joined the feeding frenzy to acquire and/or invest in top notch PR agencies.

Whether you’re a PR agency owner interested in selling your firm for growth reasons, selling as an exit strategy, or if you're a PR agency owner interested in acquiring a PR firm, The Stevens Group is the M&A firm you should contact.
