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.

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.

Fort Worth searchers: working capital discussion this Wednesday (10/28)

If you’re searching in or around DFW, we’re hosting Acquire Fort Worth this Wednesday, October 28 at 6 PM at Tarrant County College. The topic is working capital in acquisitions. It’s something I see trip up deals more often than it should, usually late in the process when everyone is tired and ready to close. A few of the questions we’ll get into: - How to set a working capital peg that’s fair to both sides - What should and shouldn’t be included in the calculation - How lenders look at working capital, especially on SBA deals - How to handle true-ups after closing without damaging the relationship with the seller It’s an in-person group of searchers, buyers, sellers, lenders, brokers, and advisors working on deals in Fort Worth. If you’re under LOI or getting close, bring your questions. If you’ve already been through a working capital negotiation, I’d love for you to come share what you learned. RSVP here: redactedredacted
