Businesses

Owner-led businesses, before and on the market.

Before market means Before Market found it in the public record or the owner raised a hand at the end of their valuation. On market means it is already listed. Members see every one with names, owners, and contact details.

What the four levels mean, and what we never list
Level 1 · Solo venture
Price under $1m · revenue under $300k · fewer than 3 staff. Your first acquisition, bought alongside a job. Simple to run, little training, few or no staff.
Level 2 · Hands-on CEO
Price under $5m · revenue under $3m · fewer than 15 staff. More capital, management experience, and the appetite to run a team yourself. You are buying the CEO seat.
Level 3 · Operator-led
Price under $10m · revenue $3m–$10m · 20–50 staff. Access to capital and the experience to manage 20 to 50 people, with an eye on a lower-middle-market exit.
Level 4 · Market leader
Price under $15m · revenue $5m–$15m · 25–100 staff. Significant capital and acquisition experience, ready to compete with institutional buyers.

What we never list: restaurants, hotels, retail storefronts, consulting firms, personal brands, Amazon FBA and dropshipping, and dry cleaners.
