Tombstones
Our Services
Venture Capital & Private Equity Investments
The capital available through MILLER is derived from the firm, its principal and often co-institutional investors for a specific transaction; as such, we are opportunistic in our approach and have an efficient investment decision process. We are generally active investors, and look to partner with owners and management teams of established middle-market companies located in North America, Europe and Asia.
We seek those opportunities where the operational, financial and transactional experience of our principal can add value beyond just capital. Our opportunistic approach also allows us to design a structure that is mutually beneficial. The following briefly highlights the characteristics of investments by MILLER.
Strategic & Crisis Management Consulting
MILLER works closely with management teams and ownership groups to develop strategic business and financial plans that enhance the long-term value of their organization. The scope of our management consulting services include:

Client Testimonials
SUNSHINE MINTING, INC. – IDAHO, NEVADA,
SHANGHAI-CHINA – MANUFACTURING FACILITIES
“One of my biggest challenges over the years was to find the right group/firm to assist and advise me through navigating the waters of financial opportunities, growth opportunities, M & A, including managing major legal and accounting strategies, so that I can make informed decisions. That’s where MILLER plays a huge role for us. MILLER, and especially Rudy Miller, bring a level of business acumen, acuity and know-how that are invaluable to any company of any size. Whether it’s dealing with the board of an international Fortune 500 company or negotiating with a regional lender, Rudy possesses the experience and expertise to ensure that his client’s best interests are always his top priority. Rudy has provided me a level of personal attention that I know I would not be able to find in other firms. His professional approach to every circumstance, coupled with a very high work ethic, make Rudy and The Miller Group an invaluable partner. Just like Sunshine Minting, Inc., Rudy Miller and The Miller Group represent the Gold Standard in their respective fields.”
SERVRX, INC.
“ServRx has had The Miller Group under contract for 5 consecutive years. They have had a strategic voice at our table as we have navigated the challenges that arise from 500% growth and national expansion to become an Inc. 500 company. Everything from financing, corporate governance, partnership negotiations, to marketplace strategies have been successfully managed with their CEO, Rudy Miller, by our side. Mr. Miller doesn’t always tell you what you want to hear; but he does tell you what you need to hear.”
MCMURRY, INC.
“I’ve worked with numerous consultants and advisors on multiple transactions, including some with the biggest names in the media industry, and my experience with MILLER was a great learning experience for myself and our team, and was unmatched on a number of very important fronts: innovative fee structure, service excellence and intuition. We always felt our deal was MILLER’s biggest priority, even though they were working on transactions much bigger and more complex than ours. The guidance we received on when to fold ’em and when to hold ’em was spot on – every prediction MILLER made about the seller’s next move was correct, and that saved us 15-20 percent on the purchase price.”
DELSTAR COMPANIES, INC.
“Owning and running a mid-size company, I had to keep my mind on the business and not be distracted by a potential acquisition. MILLER made it possible for me to do just that! Right from the beginning I had complete confidence in MILLER because of their knowledge and experience in handling complex transactions. I always felt we were their priority. The MILLER Team has an uncanny sense of bringing parties together and getting the deal done. All of my priorities were met in the transaction which was made with a large, multi-billion dollar international firm and finalized with documents completed by national and international law firms. I am extremely happy with the outcome, because it was a perfect match for DELSTAR and for me as it fulfilled all of my criteria. I feel fortunate that MILLER represented me.”
