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?

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.

John Oliver roasts the Med Spa industry...

John Oliver did a whole take on how sketchy and unregulated the Med Spa industry is, and as a Med Spa owner, I don't think he is wrong at all. Stricter regulations and raising the barrier to entry in this space would really help the industry as a whole. Curious what other med spa owners or searchers in this space think.

Hey Christopher, I think these kinds of med spas are rare. A overwhelming percentage of med spas run a tight ship. the bad actors just get all the attention. However doesn't mean we dont need more regulation in the industry. What do you mean by commissioning a report? I am always looking for statistics on the med spa industry.

Market research with a speciality on competitor revenue analysis (revenue is derived from customer spend at locations). Basic idea is the best baseline for how much money your new location will do is how much money your competitors are making.
