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.

EtA Launch Hub - accepting applicants

Hi everyone,

A new year is a chance for a fresh take on your search goals. If you're thinking of joining our redacted (you might remember it as Nuts & Bolts), now's the time to send in your application. We've updated our resources to include the EtA Guidebook in audio format. This cohort will now be able to listen on their preferred podcast platform, which should really make the most of learning while on the go. We have just two more redactedscheduled, For admitted students, there's an optional orientation coming up on Saturday January 27th, with the program officially starting on February 3rd. Remember to use coupon code: redacted.

2023 was a big year, where I laid much of the groundwork for what you see today. I am looking forward to building on that in 2024, and continuing my journey into becoming an investor for searchers through my fellowship with the Material Change Institute.

For the latest updates on our live guests, blog posts, new interviews and the One Minute News, I recommend redacted

Looking forward to an exciting year ahead with all of you.

Best,

Karen

Ya'll this program rocks. I was paid nothing to say this! I was not asked to post. The program is great. The community is great and Karen as your fearless leader is a shinning start. It's the type of group you join then want to give back to because you gain so much value from the experience.
