What We Do
Bell Lap Advisors is a team of former-entrepreneurs, executives, investment bankers, and problem solvers. We deeply understand the unique challenges and values of an entrepreneur. We are driven to help our clients maximize their enterprise value, and reach their optimal potential by offering strategic advisory service for growth, financing, and Mergers & Acquisitions. Recognizing a gap in the market for emerging small and lower mid-market consumer brands to obtain high-level professional services, Bell Lap Advisors brings an agile team of passionate professionals and an innovative business model to create valued partnerships.
