For Search Accelerators

Deal flow for every operator you back.

DealBuff runs proprietary outreach across your entire roster of searchers and CEOs in Residence. Every mandate gets a full pipeline, without your operators standing up outreach infrastructure one search at a time.

Get Started

The Challenge

Backing great operators is only half the job.

01

A Cohort of Searches, Each Needing Pipeline

Every operator you fund needs proprietary deal flow from day one. Building outreach infrastructure search by search doesn't scale across a growing roster.

02

Operators Who Should Be Evaluating, Not Prospecting

Your CEOs in Residence were selected to lead businesses. Managing domains, list building, and cold email pulls them away from the work you backed them to do.

03

Consistency Across the Portfolio

Every search deserves the same sourcing quality and the same reporting standard. Whatever each operator can stand up alone leaves your portfolio uneven.

Sourcing Across Your Whole Roster

One team runs parallel campaigns for every operator you back. Each search gets its own thesis, targeting, and copy, with nothing borrowed between mandates.

Built for the CIR & EIS Model

Whether your operators run a full CEO in Residence search or an Executive in Search while still in seat, we own the outreach engine so they stay focused on evaluation and closing.

One Relationship, Portfolio-Wide Reporting

A single point of contact and consistent reporting across every active search. See pipeline health for the whole cohort, not one spreadsheet per operator.

How It Works

A sourcing engine your whole cohort plugs into.

We handle the infrastructure, the outreach, and the reporting for each operator you back. You stay focused on selecting talent and closing deals.

01

Onboard the Mandate

Align on each operator's criteria. Industry, geography, size, ownership type, and deal structure preferences, per search.

02

Stand Up Dedicated Infrastructure

Dedicated domains and custom contact lists for every search. Full DNS configuration, inbox warmup, and deliverability management.

03

Multi-Channel Execution

Email, LinkedIn, phone, direct mail. Every operator, every channel. Personalized at scale, delivered with care.

04

Portfolio Reporting & Iteration

Custom dashboards, regular syncs, and strategy reviews. Transparent metrics across every active search in the cohort.
