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 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.

Debt financing for e-commerce aggregators

Happy new year everyone!

We're in the process of acquiring e-commerce brands and are looking to connect with operators & lenders who raise and/or provide debt financing for e-commerce brands. After an initial equity round, debt financing is common as well as essential for aggregators, especially in the US and Europe. I am interested in learning more about it and would appreciate getting on a short call to talk about the process. Or please share any link & post you find informative.

Thank you and much appreciate your time in advance. Thanks, Brian

Hello Brian. We are a commercial loan brokerage shop that has over 350+ lending partners we place debt with. We do quite a bit of business acquisition funding and have done numerous e-commerce businesses and have plenty of lenders looking in that space. I would be more than happy to jump on a call at any time to discuss options. Best to reach me at redacted Thank you.
