Getting Started. Advice on what steps to follow
March 25, 2025

Hello All,
It is a pleasure to join this community. I am just starting my journey. I am based in Washington, DC and I am hopeful I could get some advice on how to start.
I plan on self funding my search. I feel like this is a chicken vs egg conundrum. How much energy should be spent on searching for a company to acquire versus getting my financial stack (my money, bank financing, potential investors, seller financing, etc.)?
What is the typical make up of a search fund team. What energy should I spend into creating the PPM and other documents.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

I am pretty sure you will get tons of good advice here, and best practices that you should follow.
I am 100% sure that there would be a strong recommendation to hire a Virtual Assistant who can help you to search for a company so that you focus on building your financial stack because that's where your maximum energy should go.
My team has worked with 15+ searchers so far in terms of building their website, building their email stack for proprietary outreach, and building an email list.
If you would consider speaking with me, drop me an email at redacted will share with you the loom video of what we have done for our other clients, and how we can potentially help along with meeting link where we can discuss these in depth and then reconnect again when the time is right for you to engage in our services.
Wish you all the best.
