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

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.

Former CMO/MBA seeking 15 hrs/week to support an experienced search team (Fairfield County, CT)

Hi everyone - I’m looking to support an active search team - ideally one with experience in private equity or institutional-style investing - as a way to deepen my understanding of the full search and acquisition process ahead of launching my own near-term search. I’m not a typical intern in background, though I have huge respect for the incredible MBA talent in this community. My experience comes from financial services marketing and angel investing: I co-manage a women-led fund and have led diligence on many early-stage companies. I bring strong analytical, financial, and operational skills—and genuine curiosity about how experienced searchers structure, evaluate, and execute deals. I can commit around 15 hours a week for an initial 3-month period, contributing wherever most useful - sourcing, outreach, diligence, or deal execution. Open to any industry or geography. If you’re an experienced searcher who could use an extra set of hands-and don’t mind someone learning alongside you as I prepare for my own search-I’d love to connect. - Amy Bennett

This is insincere post. A sincere poster responds with urge and curiosity.
