Sell-side M&A is so brainless:
1) ask company for files / data
2) create marketing materials & model
3) send to buyers
4) buyers ask questions
5) upload more files to answer buyer questions (insert 3rd party diligence people)
6) buyers tell you number
7) company say yes or no
8) build funds flow
9) wire money and close deal
10) get deal toy
