“Girish approached me around January 2015 to purchase my online compliance training company, Click 4 Compliance (C4C). As with most founder/owners, I was initially a bit reluctant to part with my baby. It had to be a real deal with good intentions as my team, my employees, my company name would all be going to a new home. Girish and Finrock were just that, and more.
Girish knew the market, knew the industry and was clearly a seasoned CEO. From the beginning, it was obvious that he knew that mutually acceptable terms were critical to closing the deal and making it work afterward.
We quickly built up the trust that was essential to the deal because of things like: focus on “win-win”, approaching each obstacle by hearing and understanding the other side, fair and honest negotiating, and integrity. I would do it all over again and without any hesitation, I would trust Girish and Finrock to run and grow a business.”

"I experienced Girish's unique investment model first hand both as an investor and board member. Through his investment vehicle Finrock, Girish structured a transaction that allowed the founder to achieve multiple objectives; immediate liquidity, retirement and participation in the future growth of the company."

Founder SeatonCorp & INCubatoredu, Partner Operand Group
"Unlike principals at most other buyout firms, Girish is a very experienced operator. That gives Finrock preferential access to funds and the ability to close deals in an expedited manner.
Due to his many years of operational experience, Girish has a deep appreciation and respect for skills & talents of successful business owners. His working style is to communicate with honesty and integrity with business owners and investors. I recommend Finrock as the first/preferred buyer for business owners looking for partial or full exit or sale."

"I have known Girish since 2009, when I decided to become an investor in Finrock. I subsequently joined the board of Workplace Answers, a company acquired by Finrock. At Workplace Answers, Girish invested in people, systematized processes, focused on quality and was not afraid to make hard decisions when they were required. Calm, honest, and driven - Girish turned out to be the ideal steward for the business he acquired."

"I have known Girish for over a decade and have deep respect for and trust in him. Business owners have a number of choices when thinking of selling all or a part of their business and I am confident that Finrock will quickly, fairly, and efficiently partner to create a successful outcome for all."
