What are the online resources to find businesses (apart from going through individual brokers and directly approaching owners). I know about bizbuysell.com, loopnet, axial, acquire.com. Are there any others that others have found quality deals in?

I second what ^redacted‌ wrote. Best is to have a thesis and where you personally fit in that thesis so that you can make your target sell to you, and you only. Net/net, it looks harder but works better and gets easier. Analogy is seeking a job: Nobody gets a job these days by spray and pray a generic resume to 100 openings a day at LinkedIn. But if you doggedly go after 10 companies with all you got, and put in the work, you'd get in there eventually.
