Hey there, I'm new to searching and looking in B2B and Restaurant Services (runs in the family). So far my BizBuySell alerts haven't been working well? Has anyone tried out this BizBuySell Scraper? https://apify.com/acquistion-automation/bizbuysell-scraper Thinking about building an automation around this. Seems like there's a decent free trial, but curious what others have used? Thanks in advance.

BBS is extremely litigious and the quality of their listings is deteriorating rapidly as they grow their FSBO and brokers and buyers are fading away. Try DealStream, BusinessBroker.net, BusinessesForSale.com.

There’s a couple ways to scrape, they typically revolve around a tool or set of tools. Basic Robotic Process Automation tools like UIVision could be used as well as scraping services where you pay monthly to get the results delivered to you. Another approach is to put out an UpWork contract for someone to do this as they are versed in the tool and you can use geo-arbitrage to pay much less for solid results. The newer solutions that integrate tools from providers like appify and also integrate other services like Chat, Claude, N8N, etc. are becoming the rage because not only do you scrape the data, you can then analyze it quantitatively as well as qualitatively.
