Introduction

Simon Fallows is the founder and president of Freedom For Founders, a Canadian M&A advisory firm that helps business owners plan and execute successful exits—or grow toward a more valuable and fulfilling future.

With a background in business development, marketing, and operations, Simon brings a founder-first approach to M&A. His mission is to simplify the business sale process, empower owners with the right information, and ensure that each deal reflects the legacy and goals of the seller.

Freedom For Founders works with small and mid-sized businesses across industries including manufacturing, logistics, trades, and e-commerce. Through a network of buyers, investors, and trusted partners, the firm helps owners navigate complex decisions with clarity, confidence, and strategic insight.

Freedom For Founders also offers a unique "Freedom Discovery" process, designed to help entrepreneurs assess whether their company is best positioned to Grow or Go—and what steps to take next.
