Trusted By Corporate Development & M&A Leaders

Here is how our managed VAs help Corp Dev managers accelerate acquisition screening and reclaim 18+ hours every week.

"We were screening bolt-on acquisitions across enterprise SaaS. Managing Datasite VDR folders, updating our Diligence Request lists, and chasing advisor workstreams was eating my entire week. My SageDoer VA manages our data rooms and comp tables with absolute precision."

Nathaniel Wood
Director of Corporate Development, Apex Cloud Software (San Francisco, CA)

"Building target longlists in PitchBook and keeping DealCloud updated used to fall by the wayside during live transactions. Our assistant screened 120+ targets, pulled financial metrics from confidential CIMs, and prepared our Investment Committee slide decks seamlessly."

Clear Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Practical answers for Corporate Development Managers, M&A directors, and Chief Strategy Officers.

Yes. All SageDoer personnel execute strict, legally binding Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). We enforce the principle of least-privilege access using enterprise password vaults (1Password / Bitwarden), encrypted data connections, and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Your assistant manages VDR indexing in Datasite, Intralinks, or Firmex, tracks question-and-answer logs, and monitors user permissions while strictly respecting non-solicitation, confidentiality, and deal embargo rules.

Our assistants excel at operational and structural spreadsheet support. They extract historical financial figures from confidential information memorandums (CIMs), build public comparable company (comps) models, pull EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA multiples from Capital IQ or PitchBook, and update precedent transaction matrices. Discretionary valuation assumptions and final deal pricing remain entirely with you, while the VA removes the repetitive data-entry and formatting overhead.

Your assistant integrates directly into your deal workflow tools—whether communicating via email, Slack, Teams, or DealCloud. They maintain master diligence request trackers, log incoming third-party findings from accounting and legal teams, schedule management Q&A calls across conflicting time zones, and ensure all advisor document requests are cataloged systematically without items falling through the cracks.

Yes. M&A workloads fluctuate dramatically between quiet exploratory phases and high-intensity due diligence sprints leading up to signing and closing. You can maintain our Part-Time plan (20 hrs/week at $7/hr) during steady target screening, ramp up to Full-Time (40 hrs/week at $6/hr) during live data room reviews and Investment Committee deck preparation, and adjust back anytime with zero contract penalties.

100% transparent. SageDoer does not charge placement fees, upfront retainers, onboarding deposits, or software percentage markups. You pay exclusively for the pure productive hours logged by your dedicated corporate development assistant ($6 or $7/hr), and your assigned Project Manager’s quality supervision, timesheet audits, and standby backup coverage are completely free.
