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

$432 / once

Those who maintain an account with us for over 4 continuous years are permanently added to the community without the need for a membership.

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.

RDU ETA Connect

· Raleigh, NC, USA

RDU ETA Connect is a meetup for people in the Triangle area in NC interested in Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition — buying a business instead of starting one from scratch. This month we meet in the afternoon at Yard House in North Hills. Whether you're actively searching for a deal, quietly running the numbers, or already own the business, this is a low-key place to meet others walking the same path. Who it's for Searchers actively looking at deals First-time buyers running the numbers Owners who've already been through a close Lenders, brokers, CPAs and advisors who work with all of the above What to expect No pitches, no panels. Just honest conversation about deal flow, financing, diligence, and what running the thing actually looks like after you close. Not for you if you're looking to start a business from scratch or to sell services to the room. Come for the conversation. Details When: Thursday, November 12 · 4:00 – 6:00 PM Where: Yard House Raleigh · 4208 Six Forks Rd, Raleigh, NCredactedNorth Hills) Cost: $5
