Being new to building a search fund eco-system, I was wondering if anyone has documented the "Search Fund" process flow - from pre-origination, search process, funding & deal process, etc?

The Search Fund primer of Stanford Business School has an extensive process mapping and I found it to be a helpful document to get acquainted with the Search Fund model. You can download it at https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/faculty-research/centers-initiatives/ces/research/search-funds/primer

We have a flow that we use to bring sellers to intermediaries, which could definitely be applicable to a searcher for the deal origination portion of the process flow.. Happy to chat just DM me or grab a time in my calendar www.calendly.com/adamray
