Hi SF Community,

I've been searching in the $1M EBITDA range, but I've started exploring larger deals and the idea of a partnership is interesting. My background is in finance (a few decades at hedge funds, mutual funds) and I'm comfortable on the financial/due diligence side. I previously worked as a generalist analyst/portfolio manager so I'm comfortable across a variety of industries. In terms of financing, outside of my own capital, I have a solid network to help support a deal. I've generally been focusing across the Mountain/Western states, but I have some flexibility.

I'm looking for a partner with a complementary skill set where we focus on open communication (I view this as a quasi-marriage!). If interested, send me a DM and I'll set up a call. Like most of us, I rather find a business sooner vs later, but I do want to spend a good amount of time getting to know each other first and if we feel we can work well together and both of us bring value, well that's the goal.

Hey Jason, an exited Searcher, and myself, a recent acquirerer, are forming a fund to invest in SMB‘s. So technically we wouldn’t be a formal business partner, but we both have a lot of operational and acquisition experience. Let me know if you want to chat!
