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

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.

Looking to create a round table of other business owners / advisors that are familiar with the building, servicing, and maintaining in the swimming pool industry

I've been in the owner of a swimming pool contractor business that also has the service and maintenance side of the business for 1 year now, I feel like I am spinning my wheels and would like to reflect with other business owners to build a weekly check in to see if we are progressing with our goals (I feel very reactive daily to problems) and to help one another brainstorm ideas/processes/procedures for selling, designing, pricing models, marketing (that works), and similar scenarios that you encounter and proven methods to find solutions. Is there anyone interested in creating/forming this group with me? I believe 3-4 people would be a great number to start so that each of us can discuss for 15 minutes each, get feedback on the situations they are facing, and how each of us can help. Please let me know. Feel free to text/call me atredactedif interested. Thanks!

Hey Dustin, I am in Fuquay so not too far from you. I have been in the home service space for the last 8+ years: partner in a landscape company, owner of an electrical company and for the last 2.5 years as a fractional CFO for home service companies. Although I don't own a home service business currently, I have experienced all the challenges you are going through and made it to the other side. Happy to join your group if you see value in it.
