Not Finding Deals? Join Our Off Market Bootcamp

This Week in ETA:

• Searchers: Deal flow is the #1 challenge we hear from searchers. While brokered and off-market sources have their place, many overlook the power of “old school” outreach — calling, writing, and visiting sellers directly. That’s why we’re launching The Off-Market Bootcamp, a 12-week accountability program designed to help ETA searchers master authentic, effective seller outreach. Join weekly meetings, track your progress, and get real training and support. The $500 fee is fully refundable upon completion — if you do the work, we’ll gladly give your money back. Apply HERE to join us! We kick off the week of November 3.

• Investors: Earlier this month, I went to the McGuireWoods Independent Sponsor conference and had great conversations with searchers and fellow investors. The line between self-funded searchers and independent sponsors (especially those searching for the first time) can be blurry. When independent sponsors plan to operate their acquisitions for a period of time, it starts to look a lot like a self-funded search. If that’s you, we’d love to chat.

• Buyer beware the seller’s attorney - those without M&A experience or who don’t act in the best interest of the sale can completely derail the transaction.
