Has anyone made an offer planning on a sale leaseback. I’m emailing a broker for a few follow up questions to put an LOI together. I’m leaning towards including it in the offer since I am targeting a simultaneous close and need it for closing instead of renting from the seller/landlord Anyone done something like this?

When I launched Sunset Coast in 2025, I had a thesis: I could replace my search team with tech. And it was largely true. I used tools like: 👉🏼 Make.com 👉🏼 Zapier 👉🏼 n8n By pairing those with ChatGPT-3 and a few custom Python scripts, I was able to band-aid together workflows that replaced over 90% of the manual work I used to do as a self-funded searcher. It worked, but it was duct tape. Every integration broke.😒 Every webhook needed babysitting. 😑 Every workflow forced you to think like a developer, even if you weren’t one.😓 Yesterday, Anthropic released Claude Routines. And it replaces all of that. Now anyone can build automated workflows by describing what they want. In plain English. 🚫 No chaining together n8n routines. 🚫 No setting up webhooks in Make. 🚫 No fighting with API endpoints in Zapier. Put simply: 90% of what AI automation agencies charge you thousands to build, you can now do yourself. From your laptop. In an afternoon.🤯 Here’s what this means if you’re a searcher.⤵️ 1️⃣ The gap between funded and self-funded just got smaller. The edge that used to require a team? 👉🏼 Deal sourcing 👉🏼 Outreach 👉🏼 Data enrichment 👉🏼 Pipeline management All of that is now open to anyone willing to learn. This is why I keep saying it’s never been a better time to build massive leverage in your search. The tools are not the bottleneck anymore. Your willingness to use them is. So, just one question for you… “Are you building massive leverage in your search?!”

Hey everybody, I’m in Charlotte,NC and looking for an industrial services or manufacturing company.

Specifically interested in metal finishing I started looking in March 2025 and 0/3 on offers so far. I’m looking forward to finding something this year!

Raising money from investors feels REALLY scary for most searchers. Where do I find them❔ Will they take me seriously❔ Would they really give ME money❔ The truth is, there are hundreds (perhaps thousands) of investors who would love to invest in your deal if they only knew you existed. 👇🏼Here’s how to get their attention… 1️⃣ Go where they are- like ETA conferences 2️⃣ Be clear about your buy box and ASK them what types of deals they want to invest in 3️⃣ If you hit it off, ASK for an informal letter of support 4️⃣ If you’re under LOI, provide a deal teaser so they can quickly learn more about your deal. If you’re not under LOI, provide a 1-pg document on who you are and your buy box. 🎁 Here’s an example of an actual deal teaser my team and I used last year. It works. Now get Claude to help you build a professional teaser quickly🚀
