Ty Russell Acquisitions
Founder
This acquisition effort is driven by a clear goal: to acquire and grow one great business for the long term. As an enterprise sales professional with over 15 years of experience, I’m now focused on building something lasting of my own, continuing a business that has a meaningful impact and drives long-term value.I am focused on a service business valued between $1MM and $4MM, generating $500K to $1MM in SDE, where thoughtful ownership and sales leadership can unlock new growth opportunities. That might look like expanding into new markets, investing in people and systems, or doubling down on what’s already working.While I’m targeting Texas-based opportunities, specifically in Houston, I’d be open to a remote out-of-state business for the right fit. I plan to provide continuity for employees and customers while leveraging my specialized expertise in sales to strengthen customer relationships, increase revenue, and drive thoughtful, sustainable growth.
Background
I’m a lifelong learner with a growth mindset, a builder at heart, and a calm but driven approach to leadership. I’ve always thrived in environments that require solving complex problems, influencing teams, and thinking a few steps ahead.After growing up in Houston, Texas, I earned my degree in Business Communications with a minor in Technology from the University of Houston. Over the past decade, I’ve built a career working with some of the world’s most respected companies, including Oracle, Salesforce, and Merrill Lynch, helping enterprise clients make strategic decisions and implement high-impact solutions that deliver measurable results.I’ve sold over eight figures in products and services to both public and private organizations. I’ve worked closely with C-level executives, managed long sales cycles, and led growth initiatives in some of the most competitive markets in the country.Now, I’m taking everything I’ve learned and applying it to small business ownership. I believe the right company, with the right leadership, can create value not just for customers and employees, but for the entire community. That’s the work I want to do next.

Inspiration
My inspiration for acquiring and growing a small business comes from my three children. Everything I do professionally points back to them.When I think about the kind of example I want to set, it always comes back to this: I want them to see what it looks like when someone builds something meaningful.That’s what draws me to small business ownership. It’s not just about the numbers, it’s about legacy. The kind that shows up in how you treat your employees. The kind that lasts when a customer mentions your name long after you’re gone. The kind that kids grow up around and understand, even if they don’t realize it yet.I want my children to know that building a business is a form of service. That it’s possible to lead with integrity, create opportunity for others, and leave things better than you found them. That a business, when built the right way, inspires you to leave behind something that genuinely matters to the community it serves.
