One thing I hated about search

...it's brokered deal flow. The day my glass repair deal died, I had nothing else in my pipeline. It was a rookie mistake. Talk to enough self-funded searchers and you'll hear a version of this from many of them. We get myopic about one deal. The diligence is real. The stakes are real. The spreadsheets are fun. So the top of the funnel rots because it's tedious. But neglecting top of funnel hurts your optionality. Always be searching, even when you're closing. New searchers take note. This is acute for part-time searchers who simply can't afford to spend 90 minutes scoring listings when you have ~10 hours a week. You can't sustain it, so you skip a week. Then a month. Then a quarter. Then suddenly you're no longer searching, just like me. But here's the good news. With all the time I'm NOT spending browsing BizQuest, I'm building AI to give back to the community. Today I'm sharing a free AI workflow you can host on n8n. It'll automate at least one brokerage site (BizQuest) to help your top of funnel stay fresh. Take it, customize it, use it. Here's what it does: - Scrapes BizQuest every morning - Filters to your buy box - Saves every listing into a google sheet - Scores each listing against your buy-box - Top scores sent via slack DM, with a personalized message ready for the listing broker - It never sleeps - Bottom line it cuts 90% of the clicks.
