Hi All -

Any insights or experiences on using Kumo for deal sourcing for self-funded deals in EBIDTA 500K - 2M.

I have been using the free version and considering upgrading to the pro version with the 30$/month fees.

Appreciate any insights you might have on Kumo or any other portals that I should consider for my deal sourcing. Many thanks in advance!

It's a bit hit and miss and not the best source, in my view. One downside is it doesn't pull deals from certain big sites like BizBuySell. The other downside is many of the links are stale/not working. I should say that I got the Pro through a free trial. So far, what has worked for me is BizBuySell and Searchfunder as entry point, then once I've built enough brokers database I go directly to them or their websites. Btw, I am also an INSEAD searcher, let's connect!
