Hi All,

Looking for suggestions for outsourced marketing firms that can help in sourcing deals for a proprietary search.  Feeling that broker deals are a bit picked over at the moment and want to try my hand at sourcing via proprietary means.  

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks

I spoke with ^Searchfunder member‌ who has some interesting techniques for doing your own proprietary search and was super helpful.

I think proprietary sourcing is very hard to outsource effectively. At the end of the day you're selling yourself - no one can do that as good as you can!
