We're Compiling a Great DEAL SOURCE L:IST.

Do you have a list of Deal networks (sources you go to when you are looking for a specific deal)? Contribute yours, I will add mine, and I'll add everyone else's contributions to create a Master Deal Source List. I'll also do some research and add some commentary - so it becomes a useful list when you are looking to pick up a deal. I will share this list with everyone that contributes.

We are currently looking to buy two very specific companies (Virtual Receptionist businesses - what they used to call "answering services" in the old days). We're having trouble finding enough deal flow to fill these two deals. We've got committed capital, committed debt, the team is lined up... but we need to find the targets. So it's time for us to improve our Master Deal Source List. I thought this would be a good way to add other's insights to our list (and also to be able to share with the community what we learn).

Thanks.

Thanks ^redacted‌ . Rick, we were having the same problem as you back in###-###-#### We noticed there were many deals and many platforms that had deals, but there was no one source for all. So we created an aggregator to source all deals in one platform where the end user saves lots of time sourcing the right deal. We pretty much created the Kayak of deal flow. our platforms are X5deals.com and Interexo.com .

Thank you, Rick. It's good to see that you recognize and appreciate the efficacy of the 'old school' network in this regard. I look forward to receiving your Master Deal Source List.
