Tired of the BizBuySell grind? Find out where your next deal actually lives.
The nights and weekends. The same broker calls, the same picked-over listings, the rare clean deal bid up by PE before you finish modeling it — and you're still quietly telling yourself next month is the month. The problem was never effort. The deal you actually want isn't on any listing site; it's an owner who hasn't started a process yet. Get a complimentary Buy Box Viability Score™ and see exactly how many sit in your market. $130M+ in deal value generated for clients since 2023.
Stop guessing whether your buy box works.
Get a custom Buy Box Viability Analysis™ built on real data for your specific industry and geography — the number most buyers don't get until they've already burned a year. Walked through together on a 20-minute call. Yours to keep.
Normally $250 · Complimentary for the next 44 firms looking to buy businesses
Is your buy box in the Goldilocks zone?
Most buy boxes fall into one of three buckets. The complimentary analysis tells you which one you're in, and what comes next. Honestly.
We run it for you.
Your buy box is specific enough to source against and broad enough to produce real deal flow. If you want to engage, we run the full search under the Full Buy Box Guarantee™. Coverage, touches, and timeline written into the contract.
Too broad or too specific.
If your buy box is too wide (any profitable business under $5M EBITDA) or too narrow (a single sub-sub-segment in one zip code) we'll show you exactly where to tighten or widen. Refine it and we'll run the engagement. Or take the refinement and run it yourself.
Honest verdict, helpful exit.
Some buy boxes just aren't searchable as stated. Capital not committed. Geography with no density. Sector that's already been picked clean by PE. We'll tell you the truth and point you to who can actually help. Frankly, if it's not in the zone, good luck. We'd rather say it than waste your retainer.
Your buy box might be the reason you haven't closed.
Not because it's wrong — because it's untested. Most searchers run outreach for 12 to 24 months before they get any real signal on whether their buy box produces deal flow. By then they've burned runway, budget, and goodwill chasing deals in a market that may not exist. The Buy Box Viability Score™ gives you that signal in about 20 minutes.
Nobody tells you that your specific combination of industry, geography, deal size, and financial profile has only 40 realistic targets in the country. 40 owners isn't a pipeline — it's a list you exhaust in three months. Your score shows you exactly how many fit-the-box owners sit in your market, and whether your buy box is too broad, too narrow, or right in the zone.
You've been told to just send more emails.
So you do. And the conversion never moves. Before you spend another year blaming your effort, it's worth asking whether the market you're fishing in was ever big enough to begin with.
1 LOI for every 250 owners contacted
4% response, 14% to IOI, 7% to LOI. You're running a volume engine on the bandwidth of one person squeezed between a day job and a family. That's not a discipline problem — it might be a market-size problem.
A CIM that's been in market 60 days
Already read by every other searcher in your geography. The price was set in a room with 3–5 buyers all bidding at once. The clean, fairly-priced deals never reach the CIM stage — they get bought off-market first.
PE didn't outbid you. They found it first.
Same business, 18 months before the banker got involved, the owner was quietly thinking about succession and nobody had approached him. The deals PE can't beat you on are the ones that never go to a process at all.
Excited, then disillusioned, then a few months off
You re-energize, refresh the list, send a new batch, feel momentum — then nothing converts and you take a break to recover. Rinse, repeat. Every month of cold outreach starts from scratch because the work doesn't compound.
None of this means you're doing it wrong. It might mean your buy box was never viable as drawn. That's a 20-minute answer — not a two-year one.
Fair questions about a free score.
Yes. It's normally a $250 deliverable, complimentary for the next 44 firms while we build case-study volume. No card, no obligation. The only catch is volume — once the slots are gone, it goes back to being paid.
No. The score and the report are yours to keep, no engagement required. Plenty of buyers use it to refine their own buy box and keep running the search themselves. We only talk about what an engagement looks like if your buy box lands in the zone and you ask.
A custom Buy Box Viability Analysis™ for your specific industry and geography: a viability score across five dimensions, the real count of fit-the-box owners in your market, and an honest read on whether your buy box is too broad, too narrow, or right in the zone — walked through on a 20-minute call.
About 3 minutes to tell us your buy box. Nothing's scheduled until you pick a time on the next screen. Then a 20-minute walkthrough call to go through your score. That's it.
Publicly available U.S. Census business data, layered with our proprietary database of 2,340 sellers who started a process with us since 2023. Real engagements — not estimates or a generic calculator.
Then we tell you — honestly. Some buy boxes aren't searchable as stated: capital not committed, a geography with no density, a sector already picked clean by PE. We'd rather say it than let you spend another year finding out. We'll also point you toward what would actually work.
Find out before you burn another year.
You can spend the next twelve months testing whether your buy box produces deal flow — or get the real number this week. Built on real data for your industry and geography, walked through on a 20-minute call. Yours to keep, no engagement required.
