Frequent asked questions:

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

Those who maintain an account with us for over 4 continuous years are permanently added to the community without the need for a membership.

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.

Looking to create a self-funded Master Mind group

Following the wisdom of a number of other searchers in the community and recommendations from Iris Levine, I wanted to put together a small group of 5-10 self funded searchers to serve as peer-to-peer mentoring group throughout our respective journeys. We will likely target meeting at least bi-weekly virtually and are looking for a few additional searchers with the following criteria:

-Self-funded -Fully committed to acquiring/operating a business ASAP and have taken concrete steps towards such -Eager to both support others as well as leverage the group for support -Searching anywhere outside of Central Texas (Austin, San Antonio) area. The goal to get some geographical diversity.

If you sound like you would be a good fit, shoot me a DM with a bit about you, your search, and your interest, and we can go from there!

Hey Joshua, are you still looking to join a mastermind? I have a group of three and am looking to add 4-5 more before launch in early Dec. Send me a DM with a quick overview on your search criteria/background if you'd be interested!
