Frequent asked questions:

What is Searchfunder.com?

Searchfunder.com is an online community of searchers, investors, lenders, brokers and other professionals. Over 80% of those involved in searchfunds maintain a Searchfunder account to help them network, hire, and mentor others.

What are the benefits of membership?

In addition to accessing the most active online network of business buyers, Searchfunder licenses research that is simply not cost effective for individuals. Access over 15,000 industry reports and 50,000 transaction financials. You also get monthly credits for contact information for your company sourcing campaign with the option to purchase more at drastically discounted rates. Searchfunder has pre-purchased access from these data providers in order to empower individual buyers and to help searchers level the playing field versus private equity.

Do you have deals?

While we are primarily a buy-side network, we do have hundreds of brokers that regularly post deals to the community.

Can I find an internship on Searchfunder?

Absolutely! We have the industry's largest intern job board. If you are considering a search, the first step is to help another business buyer so you can hit the ground running.

What does it cost?

Searchfunder is a subscription service. We offer flexible monthly, annual and lifetime memberships.

Monthly

$79 / month

Annual

$19 / month

Lifetime

$432 / once

Those who maintain an account with us for over 4 continuous years are permanently added to the community without the need for a membership.

Do I need an MBA to join?

While a large number of our members come from dedicated programs at Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, Chicago Booth, and other top programs, searching is no longer reserved for the elite. With the current abundance of dry powder in private equity, and an increasing number of business owners reaching retirement age, good deals rarely go unfunded.

Couple Things

I am looking to do several things. Sell a company, Buy a company and Startup a company based on an invention. Does anyone have time to get on a call and explain to a newbie how Search Funder could work in each or any one of these scenarios?

Kindly

Hey Jason, at the risk of sounding reductive, the tldr; on this would be:
Buy/Sell: pl check the deals section to buy/sell, and also making a post similar to this one to gain traction from investors/buyers would help. Startup: Post details about your requirements, and people with industry experience will likely chime in. Least likely to result in anything productive.
I see this platform as a way to connect with people within the SMB ecosystem, and I believe that engaging with content where the people you want to connect with are active is probably the way to go. Happy to hop on a call, though I’m by no means an expert—maybe redacted‌ ^redacted‌ ^redacted‌ can chime in too.

Sounds like you have some interesting plans. Although I am no longer involved in the day-to-day of Searchfunder, I am always happy to meet with new folks to the community.
