How we're different
Three ways to source deals. Here's where we sit and why we think it fits how individual buyers, search funds, and small PE actually shop.
Open listings
e.g. BizBuySell
Anyone can list. You sift the noise yourself and contact brokers cold. Vetting is up to you.
Network gate
e.g. Axial
Institutional only. Sell-side controls outreach. Built for PE on $25M+ deals. Closed to most individual buyers.
Vetted off-market
Strategic Finds
We don’t list sellers we haven’t met. Every one cleared by an SF advisor — financials, motivation, fit — before they publish. Profitable businesses only. Buyers browse. Advisors make the intro warm.
Same off-market quality as a private network, the access of a marketplace, and a flat success fee no broker will match.
Our listing standard
While others let sellers list in 60 seconds, we don't list anyone we haven't met.
Every business in our pipeline has been on a call with one of our advisors. We've discussed financials, understood motivation, and made a call on fit. That's why our buyer-to-seller ratio stays low and our sellers actually respond.
100%
Profitable
No turnarounds. No concepts. No “trust me, bro.” Every deal is already cash-flowing and owner-proven.
100%
Owner-met
Before we list anything, we meet the owner. Discuss financials. Vet the deal. Non-negotiable.

Auto-feeds
No scraped listings, no recycled brokered inventory, no syndication.

Common questions
How does your success fee compare to a typical broker?
We charge a flat success fee on close. Never a Lehman scale, never a separate buyer-side commission. Rates: 1.5% on Pro, 2.5% on Growth, 3% on Starter. Success fee is paid only when a deal closes. Never on subscription, never on intros.
Example: a $5M close
- Typical broker (Lehman 5-4-3-2-1)$150,000
- Strategic Finds Pro (flat 1.5%)$75,000
