How are y’all finding leads? do y’all recommend hiring a va from Upwork and saving myself the time scrapping the internet and social media? also, how can I accurately get information on a company like current revenue, ect? Don’t want to waste my time speaking to a company that might not be in my buy box.

Hiring a VA can definitely save you time, but there's no substitute for manual outreach and relationship-building. The most effective deals often come from doing things the hard way—networking, meeting people face-to-face, etc. While a VA can gather basic info, key metrics like revenue and growth are typically gathered through direct engagement where you can ask tough questions and get to know the seller more personally.

I am a searcher myself and have built some tools for scraping and cleaning data within a specific buy-box. Depending on the geo of your search and specific parameters, I may be able to assist in spinning you up some lists if you’re interested
