That’s the value of four term sheets issued in the last two weeks for four deals - four different industries, a US deal, Ireland, UK and Australia. Two accepted with due diligence now under way. Two in negotiations . Term sheets are a great way to capture the core components of a deal and something that can be referred back to in the event of any disagreements later down the line. We generally present them after a formal presentation is gone through with the seller(s) that doesn’t just go through the financial and legal components of the deal but sells us a buyer (track record, future plans for the company etc). It’s a simple 4/5 page document - If anyone is interested in having a copy of the template we use like this post or comment and I’ll send it to you.

Hello Paul, I know you say to be looking for deals of a certain size, however I have a few UK based deals that are small from around 50k-250k ebit, 500k revenue to around 2 million revenue just wondered if there is lending available for deals in this range in the UK and if you could tell me about the best options. Some have a good tangible asset base and some not so much. Thanks in advance.

Most dealmakers spend all their time learning how to close… but forget the part that actually creates deals — sourcing. In the past 15 years, I’ve completed over 100 acquisitions across 12 countries. Only three of those came from brokers. The rest came from a disciplined, repeatable sourcing system I’ve built — one that now consistently generates qualified, fundable, direct-to-owner opportunities every single week. I’ve written a new short guide that breaks down the exact process: How to define your target filters and build lists that actually convert. The personalised outreach method that gets a 25%+ response rate. How to read owner psychology and spot the real motivations to sell. The system I use (and teach our JV partners) to keep deal flow consistent month after month. If you want a copy, comment “sourcing strategy” below and I’ll send it to you directly. No fluff. No theory. Just the exact method that’s produced 1,000+ qualified leads and multiple closed deals this year alone.

I’ve put together a practical playbook that explains: - How to set and test target working capital - What really happens to cash and debt in a cash-free, debt-free deal - How surplus cash should be handled (without sparking arguments) - Worked examples showing how equity value changes under each approach Download the document here and make sure you don’t leave money on the table.

Has anyone here used bizcrunch and how is it compared to endole
