Investor seeking consolidation deals

January 19, 2023

I'm interested in connecting with and investing in self-funded or traditional searchers who are pursuing consolidation thesis in fragmented verticals. Focused primarily on growth-oriented search. Interested in tuck-in strategies or more aggressive consolidation plans. I prefer to get to know searchers while they are defining their thesis but would love to connect at any stage.

Update: The quantity of responses has been awesome and overwhelming! I no longer have the ability to keep up with the quantity of emails and messages and will do my best to return communication ASAP. If you have a thesis and a deck, please email me at redacted and I will review at my earliest availability.

Rob, you post has gone quite viral. I'll add one more voice to the conversation for you or any other investors who would like to connect. I am currently performing my first marketing campaign to targets and am getting solid traction in my inaugural deal search for accounting, bookkeeping, and strategic/fractional CFO firm roll-up. At this stage seeking long-term investment partners who would be willing to commit towards operational and strategic guidance, as well as multiple rounds of funding for subsequent acquisitions. Seeking to build out that investor list to raise deal-by-deal. Feel free to reach out to me on here or by my email: redacted

Looks like this thread has blown up beyond my capacity to reach out to people. That is a good thing. But would like to if I can. Would it make sense if we set up a zoom - almost like an open house for networking this weekend or early next week for those who want to catch up live? I can do a 60 to 90 minute window this week between 3 pm to 6 pm pacific Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Or ^redacted‌ can suggest another mechanism to move this more efficiently. Next week is a bit difficult due to travels, can do the week after also.
