🔓 Off-Market Exclusives: 10 Businesses For Sale 🔓
Six of the ten businesses in this issue share something rare: the owner has signed a listing agreement with us and their financial documents are already sitting in our data room. Tax returns, P&Ls, add-back schedules, balance sheets. When you reply about these deals, we do not go hunting for numbers; we send them. The other four are proven pipeline deals worth a second look. One more thing: this Sunday we are hosting a free live workshop breaking down the exact system our clients use to find, finance, and close deals like these. Details inside. Reply to this email with the deal number(s) and we will send you the details.
👋 Hey Team!
Welcome to all the new subscribers who joined this week!
How this issue works: deal numbers carry over from our master pipeline (Issues #221 through #235), so if you already replied about a deal, the number is the same. Note the numbers that interest you and reply to this email with them. Most of these businesses are off-market and appear nowhere else, and a real person on our team reads and answers every reply.
The Continental is Acquire Weekly's private buy-side concierge. We work directly with you to source, vet, negotiate, and close off-market businesses that fit your exact buy box, from first search to signed purchase agreement.
If you are serious about acquiring a business this year, this is the fastest path to a closed deal.

This Sunday we are going live and breaking down the exact acquisition system our clients use to find, finance, and close on profitable businesses, even with no industry experience.
This is for you if:
