We buy and steward great businesses.
By leveraging our wide range of relevant industry relationships and a growing network of internal resources, Helio Next works to strengthen our businesses and enhance value.
Who we are.
Helio Next is a private holding company that is focused on acquiring & operating scalable businesses.
We are mostly industry agnostic when considering potential opportunities, but our current focus is on organizations with sustainable, long-term operations in commercial, B2B, and manufacturing industries. We look to leverage our wide range of relevant industry relationships and a growing network of internal resources to strengthen our businesses and enhance value.
The team at Helio Next has experience with large organizations but most commonly works in the small to mid-sized business world, so we understand the unique challenges of transitioning and successfully running businesses of all sizes.
With our shared services model, we provide our business group with advanced resources and capabilities that would often be challenging or out-of-reach for small to mid-sized businesses. Our dedicated in-house team provides a foundation for each of our companies in the areas of management, engineering, accounting, human resources, marketing/design, advertising, etc.

What are we looking for.
We strive to be good stewards of the companies we acquire and are looking for enduring businesses that align with our values.
We are looking for businesses, typically in the Central States or Greater Midwest, that can fit in well with our group and align with our values of integrity, humility, transparency, respect, and expertise.
A few of the basic foundations that we seek to identify for new acquisitions are: long-term operations, strong growth opportunities within the market of operation, a decentralized customer base, consistent profits with healthy margins, and a strong existing management team or ability to be relocated/consolidated.
We consider deals of all sizes and in all locations. We also have unique capabilities to relocate or consolidate acquisitions with existing operations.
Our Track Record
We always do what we say we’ll do.
We take pride in how we handle our deals. Always striving to treat others with respect and humility. We want to be sure both sides walk away with a deal we can be proud of. Below you will find some testimonials by those we have worked with in the past. We greatly appreciate them allowing us to use their words and hope it sheds some light on how we do business.
Integrity
Sam would follow up with his staff in confirming every payment and has been more than diligent in making sure EVERYTHING that was agreed to be done efficiently and expeditiously of which it has been.
We had never had any dealings with Sam prior to selling him our business and found that he has been most forthright and most professional but also a most down to earth person to correspond with and work with.

Expertise
As in every business acquisition, the seller and buyer have different objectives that often clash, causing delays and ill will. When competing objectives arose, HNH was willing to work out mutually beneficial resolutions in a timely and balanced fashion. They were also intently considerate of the employees that transferred with the business and made sure that HNH was fair and open with them.

Transparency
Throughout all my dealings with Sam, he has proven to be a fiscally responsible business owner of sound character. He has never missed a payment or obligation as part of our agreements.
Due to my experiences with Sam, I feel confident issuing this statement as a validation of his integrity and professionalism.

Respect
Sam was very cooperative as we worked together to establish a mutually beneficial agreement that allowed us to complete the transaction smoothly and efficiently.
This agreement included a portion of the purchase price to be carried as seller-financing by me after the sale was completed.
Sam & his team have been prompt & timely to ensure each of these payments has been made on-time. Sam has also honored all the special concessions and handshake agreements that we made

Stewardship
At all times during our negotiations, I found Sam and his team to be extremely easy to communicate with. They are professional, straight-forward, honest and pragmatic. So much so, that I had no qualms in offering some seller financing as part of the purchase agreement.
During and after the closing I worked closely with Sam's team and found them always to be professional and easy to communicate with.
Sam's integrity and honesty have been reflected in everything he has said and done, I have no hesitation in recommending Sam and his group to anyone looking to sell their business.
