8 calls in 24 hours. All from Searchfunder members scrambling to line up financing with a closing deadline breathing down their neck. I've spent years building relationships with lenders who specialize in ETA deals, including several who are active members of this forum. There's a real gap right now between great opportunities and capital sources who actually move at searcher speed. I'm here to help bridge it. You've probably seen my posts. You've noticed I don't pitch. I don't ask. I show up to give — share what I know, make introductions, and help searchers any way I can. If you're stuck on the capital side, reach out. I'll connect you with the right lender — no strings attached. To point you in the right direction fast, here's what I need: → Industry → Location (USA only — my network is U.S.-based) → Deal size (enterprise value) → Capital needed + structure (debt, equity, or mix) → Revenue, EBITDA, margins → Red flags: concentration, declining trends, asset-light → First platform or bolt-on? → Do you already own a company? → Timeline or hard close date The more you give me upfront, the faster I can match you with groups who actually understand ETA and won't waste your time. Financing shouldn't be the reason a solid deal dies.
